About this Mod



About

Warning: Botania Requires Patchouli and Curios (Forge) or Trinkets (Fabric/Quilt)!

Botania is a tech mod themed around natural magic. Gameplay is centered around creating magical flowers and devices using Mana, the power of the earth. Botania is fully playable as a standalone mod (and is designed as such), but it functions just well in conjunction with other mods.

The mod focuses on automation, but without elements that make it feel grindy-- systems can be thought out and designed, rather than built blindly from blueprints in JEI or a wiki.

Botania's design philosophy

  • No pipes, wires, etc-- they're boring and overdone;
  • No GUIs-- interact with everything in-world;
  • No numbers-- players shouldn't try to minmax everything;
  • Keep all resources as renewable as possible;
  • Provide pleasing visuals, despite using only two different particle effects.

Botania's goals

  • Break the mold of mods being means to ends-- be engaging in gameplay as well as in rewards;
  • Deliver fun and balanced gameplay without forcing players to grind;
  • Incentivize sandbox gameplay and allow players to create fun contraptions;
  • Create an overall immersive experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

Botania server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 4 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.20.1). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Botania compatible with fabric and forge and quilt?

Botania officially supports fabric, forge, quilt for Minecraft 1.20.1, 1.19.2, 1.18.2. Note: Forge and Fabric mods are NOT cross-compatible – pick one loader and stick with it. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Botania – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 6 GB (per 5 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Botania consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
