About this Mod
A collection of fixes and addons to the tektopia mod. Focus is on better configurability and compatibility for now.
Current Features (Version 1.4.5)
Please update to Version 1.4.3+! All previous versions have a bug, that stops many features from working correctly!
All Villagers
- Villagers can eat any modded foods (hunger and happiness are calculated automatically)
- Villagers will see all entities that have CreatureType "Monster" as hostile, not only specific monsters.
Farmers
- Farmers can now harvest and replant any modded seeds
Miners
- Miners can mine modded Ores
- Miners can gather Stones they dig (can be turned off ingame) and place them in storage
Guards
- Guards can wear modded Armor & Weapons
- This replaces the original Tektopia armor. The captainswings are displayed separately onto any helmet (in diamond color because it's nice)
- Armors with custom models don't work properly (looking at you Epic Knights)!
- You can equip Guards by right-clicking them with armor or swords/weapons
- They will not change that equipment unless you tell them to
Druids
- Regrow Modded Ores
Smiths
- Create modded ingots
Merchants:
- Merchants will buy and sell from a chest that is placed directly under the merchantstall marker (see image below)
- Merchants no longer despawn if they were already in the village when you reload the world

Mod Compatibility Patches
- Pams Harvestcraft Gardens no longer block movement
- Epic Knights surcoats are rendered properly if present (epic knights 6.x)
- Fossils and Archaeology should no longer crash (v.1.4.1). Miners will not pick up the drops from fossil ore
Incompatibilities
- Not compatible with "Tektopia Harvestraft Compat" because Tektopia Addons includes a more general implementation of the same feature (compatible with all modded food not only harvestcraft).
Planned Features
If the feature is marked with "?" i'm not sure if it's possible and how.
Turns out crafting modded recipes gets crazy really fast, I will have to figure out a smart way to do it. I like the way you can "teach recipes" in Mine Colonies. maybe that's an option. I will have to look into it though.
