[Lilac] Renewable Sponge + Prismarine

Part of The Lilac Experience, a mod series designed to make the game more accessible to casual players without straying too far from what the game was meant to be.

As I’ve been gathering advice for starting up a forever world, I’ve been seeing one common piece: With all these new updates coming along, try not to load too many chunks. I’m trying to strike a balance here between keeping the natural magic and danger of these biomes and structures while also leaving ways to not load too much of the world when you need resources.

For this mod in particular, I’ve made fisherman villagers sell prismarine shards at expert level. It’s currently 2 diamonds per 1 shard, with a sixteen trade total per restock, but that’ll likely change once I decide I want some blue in my builds.

I’ve also made sponges craftable with four prismarine shards and a dried kelp block to make it more accessible without having to raid five different monuments only to clear out one lake. Of course, this is geared towards removing a _need_ for farms but absolutely nothing is stopping you from building them anyway and having all the sponges ever.

I hope you enjoy 🙂
