Hello all

Trying to figure out how to mod new fruits onto trees, I want to make a fruit for the bloodthorn, Boodfruit from which Hemafiber, a material that is better than leather but less than iron, maybe copper (unsure how this works) can be extracted. I can make the reactions to smelt Hemafiber thread into wafers and 10 wafers plus 1 flux stone into 1 iron bar, a lot of work but hey, renewable iron!

Main problems
1.   Dont know how to mod trees
2.   Dont know how to make new materials or determine their values

Made a thread quite a while ago but couldn't get help I'd really appreciate any help I want to become a modder

1. look at other trees with fruits
2. look at other materials, for STRAIN_AT_YIELD lower is better, for YIELD and FRACTURE higher is better, YIELD and FRACTURE

Here's what you need to know about modding fruit onto trees:

• The fruit must be made out of a 'plant' material. You can't pick thread or seeds or metal or eggs straight off the trees, your gatherer will just ignore growths made out of these materials. You'll need a separate reaction to convert that growth into a thread.
• The plant material in question must have the tag [STOCKPILE_PLANT_GROWTH], otherwise your gatherer will just ignore it.

Other than these two things - which are the cause of a lot of the vanilla plant bugs - just look at an existing fruit tree raw definition and pattern your bloodthorn additions on that.

Thanks, that was crucial
