[Balancing/Suggestion] Truffles spawn rates/acquisition #2

Open AlienXtream opened 3 years ago

AlienXtream commented 3 years ago

Truffles are WAY too common and easy to get. i would suggest that truffles should spawn "inside" a block that (automatically) takes on the texture of the dirt block and has a low chance to spawn under a tree every few days or so. to find truffles you take a pig on a lead around the place and once it gets within 16-32 blocks of a "truffle" dirt block it will start pathing towards it. wild pigs would also do this with naturally generated truffles, tending to wander around them.

"cultivated" truffles could also be farmed by having a chance to spawn in a dirt block when a tree grows and 'mushrooms' type blocks/plants are near by (cos truffle is a type of fungus so it sorta makes sense). the cultivated variety, while usable in mostly the same recipes, would be of a lower quality and so be worth less food/saturation. there would also be some truffle recipes that NEED the wild variety.

wild truffles can be traded with townsfolk and testificatefolk (i.e HF NPCs and MC Villagers. proposed "names" for each in the mods text/dialogue) for a generous sum as well as bought from Townsfolk (not villagers due to them being easily exploitable. only a trade for SELLING truffles TO villagers). Wild truffles would NOT respawn and require exploration in forested biomes to find, making them quite a prize.

its also for the above reason that the cultivated variety would be so much cheaper and a viable substitute in most recipes (e.g if someone wanted a truffle based dish you could use the cultivated ones in all but the most special dishes BUT if someone wanted a TRUFFLE itself they would want the wild type). using a wild truffle in a dish that accepts either would create a "buffed" variant that yields better hunger and saturation.

a rare variety of "nether truffle" would also be found in the crimson forests and be usable as well, providing a few seconds of fire resistance when eaten. they are, however, too hot to eat raw and will deal fire damage to the player if they try (as well as not restoring hunger or giving fire resistance). to find this variety the player would need to note hoglin behavior as they would act as pigs to with wild truffles in the overworld. unfortunately (for the player) due to hoglins aggressive nature observing them at a distance would be safest. nether truffles would be usable in a fire resistance potion in place of magma cream. there would be no way to farm nether truffles as they would ONLY spawn as world gen

While I do like your ideas for a minecrafty approach. I do want them to just find them ala Stardew Valley (when I'm doing the whole mod). So if I am to do this I would probably use your mechanic as the default in Husbandry but change it with the whole thing. Although tbh they should probably not "find" them as frequently.

you are welcome to take ideas and elements from it as you see fit. thats the whole point, to share ideas that i had which you may not have thought of. how YOU wish to take, alter, and/or approach the suggestion to fit YOUR mod is up to you. after all, you're the one who would have to program it and make it work. its your final say 😄
