Cucumber Mod FAQ

16 questions players actually ask, answered.

What does the Cucumber Mod actually do?
Cucumber is a shared library mod that provides common code and utilities for other mods. It adds no blocks, items, or gameplay content of its own, so nothing will appear in your inventory or creative menu.
Why did Cucumber show up in my mods folder if I never installed it?
It was almost certainly pulled in automatically as a dependency when you installed another mod that requires it. Removing it will break those mods, so leave it in place.
How do I know if Cucumber is working?
Since it has no items or blocks, the main sign it's working is that the mods depending on it load without crashing. If those mods function normally, Cucumber is doing its job.
Do I need to install Cucumber separately?
Only if a mod you want requires it and your launcher didn't bundle it automatically. If your dependent mods already load fine, you don't need to do anything.
My game crashes saying Cucumber is missing — how do I fix it?
You need to add the Cucumber library to your mods folder so the dependent mod can find it. Make sure the version you add matches what the dependent mod expects.
Can I just delete Cucumber to clean up my mods folder?
No — any mod that depends on it will fail to load or crash. Only remove it if you're also removing every mod that requires it.
Does Cucumber work on both Forge and Fabric?
Cucumber is built for specific mod loaders, and the version you need depends on which loader your other mods use. Check the dependent mod's requirements to know which build to use.
Will Cucumber slow down my game or hurt performance?
As a lightweight library, it adds negligible overhead on its own. Any performance impact you notice is more likely coming from the mods that depend on it.
Can I update Cucumber without breaking my other mods?
Update it only when a dependent mod requires a newer version, and keep it matched to what those mods expect. Jumping versions unnecessarily can cause compatibility issues.
Why doesn't Cucumber add any cucumbers or food items?
Despite the name, Cucumber is a code library, not a farming or food mod. The name refers to the library itself, and it intentionally adds no items or blocks.
