Configure Low-Chance Outputs

Compost Mod supports rare drops by setting very low chance values on high-value items.

1. Identify the item you want to be rare (diamonds, emeralds, or valuable mod items)

2. Add a composition for that item with a low chance percentage (e.g., 1–5%)

3. Set the quantity to 1 or a small range (1–3)

4. Keep other compositions (like dirt or apples) at higher chances so composting feels rewarding

5. Save and test by composting many stacks of organic material

Balance Your Rewards

Rare drops should feel special but not impossible. Consider:

  • How much compostable material players can gather
  • Whether the rare item is endgame or early-game
  • Adding multiple rare outputs at different rarity levels

You can adjust chances on the fly using config commands without restarting, letting you fine-tune drop rates based on player feedback.
