Bright sides of the now lost mod update work:

  • Proof of concept: The Composting was working
    • Herbalist in my test game successfully converted a basket of Rotten Turnips into dirt resource.

Sadly not near the extent of what I want to do with Compost, but my skills are very limited compared to my ambition…

  • Proof of concept: New building resources
    • For the most part, the Painted Wood, Polished Stone, Adobe, and Pisé de Terra did work.
    • The custom resources tied to them - primed wood resource, refined stone resource, adobe resource, and packed dirt resource, respectively - were fairly easy to add, so long as I made sure to have the correct tag on the things they tied to.
    • To me, this means not only are craftable resources a feasible thing, but things made from this custom materials.

Granted, I knew to some extent this was already feasible courtesy of the Color Blocks mod by @Nex, which is was a big inspiration when playing with the new work.

For now, I’ve stripped my game of mods, and updated to A23 unstable again. I will start doing update type work while waiting for the release version.
