Design a Custom Modpack Without Infinite Cobblestone Farms

Plan Your Resource Economy

With automatic cobblestone generation disabled, you'll need alternative stone sources:

1. Decide where players will obtain stone and cobblestone:

• Mining from the world naturally
• Other mods' stone generation systems
• Custom crafting recipes
• Specific designated quarries or mining areas

2. Consider the progression impact—stone is fundamental for early-game building

Adjust Gameplay Balance

• Increase natural stone deposits in your world if using custom terrain generation
• Provide early-game stone access through mining or trading
• Document the change in your modpack's guide so players understand the new resource flow
• Test that players can still progress through normal gameplay without lava-water farms

Prevent Accidental Cobble Generation

Even with the mod active, educate players that:

• Lava and water won't auto-generate blocks
• They should plan stone gathering differently
• This is intentional for your modpack's design philosophy

This creates a more controlled, intentional progression system where stone becomes a managed resource rather than infinitely renewable.
