A Minecraft mod that seeks to add vegan alternatives to all Minecraft mob/animal products using the following guidelines:

• Nothing added to worldgen
• No new crops added

1. Clone this repository
2. If you have Gradle installed, open a command line in the cloned directory and execute: gradle build. To give the build a version number, use gradle build -Pversion=<version> instead (example: gradle build -Pversion=1.0.0). To use the most recent commit, use gradle build -Pdev

• If you don't have Gradle installed, you can use ForgeGradle's gradlew/gradlew.bat instead

To use the runClient or runServer tasks, you must have a local.properties file in the project directory. Its contents are as follows:

recipe_viewer=jei # or rei, depending on which you need or prefer.

• Potato Starch in a furnace creates Bioplastic
• Bioplastic crafted in a 1x2 shape creates a Plastic Rod
• Bioplastic crafted in a diamond shape creates a Plastic Egg (Egg [as an object] alternative)

• Jute Fiber crafted in a 2x2 creates Burlap (Leather alternative)

• Chest + Sticks crafted together creates a Composter

• In ideal mushroom growing conditions, compost will sometimes sprout mushrooms, including the False Morel (Spider Eye alternative)
  • Mushrooms, including the False Morel, can be placed in Compost as spores to grow them at a faster rate than their natural spread, at the cost of eventually depleting the compost of its nutrients. Spent compost can be recycled into more compost as a brown material.

• Bones occasionally drop when mining Stone

• Soap + Water + Sugar + Glass Bottle crafted together creates Soap Solution
