De Novo

Goals

  • Make early game BTW more survivable, without killing all challenge, by introducing more mechanics like fishing that are tedious
  • Allow survival on a map with nothing but a bedrock plane (truly from nothing or De Novo)
  • Allow progression on a survival island with no trees or animals to crafting a boat
  • Allow progression in the nether from nothing to nether portal
  • Designed to give full access to the entire tech tree combined with BWR (for example, BWR doesn't offer an end portal method)
  • Support skyblock, survival island seeds, single biome maps for any biome type and flatmaps without structures

Extras

  • Config: Allow players to get a piece of golden dung on every HCS
  • Add a new world generation option that starts you in the nether
  • Add a new world generation option that starts you on a classic skyblock map

Golden dung

  • Right clicking golden dung on bedrock plants a golden bush
  • Right clicking the golden bush, a dead bush or a sapling gives you sticks occasionally
  • Right clicking a sapling might downgrade it a growth step (but doesn't destroy the sapling outright)
  • Breaking the golden bush with shears gives you back the golden bush
  • Putting the golden bush on blight creates an end portal

Composter

  • Composters have a recipe that needs just sticks and a 2x2 recipe
  • Putting organic material (like sticks, leaves or wood) in the composter turns it into dirt
  • Full composters start creating maggots
  • Maggots are edible or can be crafted into string
  • Full composters left in darkness create brown mushrooms around them
  • Empty composters act like cisterns
  • There can be later composter recipes for materials like dung or red mushrooms (if need be) that require putting in different things

Cistern

  • Empty composters or cisterns gain a little bit of water each morning
  • Rain instantly fills up empty composters and cisterns
  • Filled-up composters only hold one bottle of water's worth
  • Right clicking a water-filled composter or cistern with a wooden bowl gives you a bowl of water
  • Right clicking a sapling with a bowl of water gives it one growth tick
  • Right clicking a water-filled composter or cistern with a dirt pile turns it into muddy water
  • Muddy water eventually settles into regular water again, producing a single ball of clay
  • Filled-up composters or cisterns act like source blocks for crops

Sieve

  • You can craft a sieve with sticks and string
  • The sieve is a hopper that you have to right click for it to work slowly
  • There is a new hopper filter called a mesh, made from string
  • Filtering dirt piles through mesh gives you rocks, saplings and sugar cane seeds
  • Filtering cobblestone through mesh gives you gravel piles
  • With a wicker filter, gravel piles can be turned into sand piles and occasionally flint
  • Filtering dung through mesh gives you other seeds
