Climate Based Growth

Climate Based Growth

This mod makes plant growth dependent on biome temperature. Instead of plants growing at the same speed everywhere, they now have a preferred climate.

How it works:

• Optimal Temperature: If a plant is in its favorite climate (e.g., Cactus in a Desert or Spruce in a Snowy Taiga), it grows slightly faster than vanilla.
• Poor Climate: If a plant is in a climate it doesn’t like, growth is significantly slowed down.
• Gaussian Scaling: The growth speed scales smoothly. The further the temperature is from the plant’s “sweet spot,” the slower it grows.

Supported Plants:

• Crops: Wheat, Carrots, Potatoes, Beetroots, Torchflowers, Pitcher Plants.
• Trees: All vanilla saplings, including Mangrove and Cherry.
• Others: Sugar Cane, Cactus, Bamboo, Cocoa, Sweet Berries, Kelp, and Sea Pickles.
• Nether/End: Nether Wart, Fungi, and Chorus Flowers.

Technical:

• Server-Side Only: This mod only needs to be on the server. Clients do not need to install it to join and see the effects.
• Vanilla-Friendly: Does not add any new items or blocks. It only changes the growth logic of existing ones.
