Defining New Compost Compositions in Config Files

The Composition System

The Compost Mod allows you to overhaul composter outputs by defining custom compositions within its configuration files. This system completely replaces or customizes default recycling rewards.

Each defined composition includes four main parameters:

  • Output Item: The specific item produced when the composter is emptied.
  • Chance to Generate: The probability that this particular item will be selected upon completion.
  • Min Quantity: The lowest amount of the item that can drop in a single cycle.
  • Max Quantity: The highest amount of the item that can drop in a single cycle.

Editing Your Configuration

To customize the recycling rewards:

1. Open your game's configuration folder and locate the config files for Compost Mod.

2. Create or edit an entry within the composition system.

3. Designate the output item (for example, food items like apples, blocks like dirt, or rare items like diamonds).

4. Set the chance to generate to balance item rarity.

5. Define the min and max quantity values to set payout sizes.

6. Save the config file to update the composter's reward pool.
