About this Mod
TerraVermis
Worms that bring the soil to life.
TerraVermis adds earthworms to Minecraft—tiny but powerful creatures that improve soil fertility, speed up composting, and enhance fishing.
Main Features
Natural Spawning
- Break dirt, grass block, rooted dirt, podzol, mycelium, to find earthworms.
- Rain and Fortune enchantments increase drop chance.
- Worms can also emerge from composters or appear naturally in moist soil.
What Can You Do With Worms?
- Desperate Snack: Worms can be eaten when starving, restoring 0.5 hunger (1 food point). Not tasty, but better than dying...
- Soil Enrichment: Use Topsoil instead of Farmland to boost crop growth.
- Fishing Bait: Speeds up catch time and improves loot.
- Compost Boost: Throw worms into composters to accelerate composting.
Environmental Integration
- Worms die in polluted or unnatural blocks (for modded environments).
- Their presence can be visualized via crawling entities.
- Combine with vermicomposters (if enabled) for passive fertilizer generation.
Configuration
All mechanics—drop rates, compost behavior, growth boosts—are configurable via JSON or common.toml.
Contributions
- Contributions welcome: translations, textures, feature ideas.
Credits
- Developer: Daniel-Mendes

Server lagging with TerraVermis – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if TerraVermis consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge.
