About this Mod
SmartSeeds
Mod Presentation
This mod is changing the growing speed of some plants depending on the temperature of the biome the plant is growing in. Each plant has an ideal temperature, a min and a max temperature. At the ideal temperature, the plant grows VIMF time faster than in vanilla. (VIMF stands for Vanilla Ideal Multiplication Factor)
Developpement
This mod is still in alpha version and is still buggy. Don't hesitate to report any bugs you find on the bug report page (google forms). It really helps me to devellop this mod.
I will probably not add more features, but I will try to update the mod as fast as I can when there are new Minecraft update.
Technical informations
They are new attributes that a plant block can have. Those include :
Expand the new plants attribute
SPEED_FACTOR(the VIMF)MIN_TEMPERATURE, IDEAL_TEMPERATURE, MAX_TEMPERATUREGROW_IN_SNOWNEED_RAINstill in devellopementSURVIVE_SNOW, SURVIVE_RAIN
Those are pretty self-explainatory. As it stand now, SURVIVE_SNOW & SURVIVE_RAIN just stops the plant from growing when the condition is met.
Temperature preferences
Every biome has a TEMPERATURE attribute wich (in vanilla) is comprised beetween -1 and 2. This attribute is used for the biome repartition. At the Ideal temperature, the growing speed of the plant is equal to VANILLA_SPEED * VIMF. At the minimum and maximum temperature, the speed is simply zero.
The general formula to caclulate the growing speed is VANILLA_SPEED * VMF Where the VMF (Vanilla Multiplication Factor) is calculated like this :
VIMF * (1 - max((BIOME_TEMPERATURE - IDEAL) / (MIN - IDEAL), (BIOME_TEMPERATURE - IDEAL) / (MAX - IDEAL)))
