More explanation needed, and will be coming later.
2015-04-23Configuration - persistent config fileAuke Kok
This allows a server admin to tweak the mods growth rate, chance and required light level. For convenience I've made 3 sets of "easy", "normal" and "difficult" settings so that it's easy to understand what the difference is and what good starting values are.

2015-04-17Green Beans.Auke Kok
These green beans are unnaturally green, but there's so many of them that grow on a vine! Sadly, these beans don't grow beans unsupported, so you stick some sticks together to make a beanpole, something like this way: empty empty empty stick empty stick stick empty stick There, that should help the viney bean plant to grow to 2 meters high. It has remarkable purple flowers, that pop all over the plant just before the beans grow. Sadly, once the beans are picked, this plant turns into an unusable mess that makes it hard for the next plant to grow on the beanpole, so you salvage the beanpole's sticks after harvesting in order to make more beanpoles again. It's a bit of work, but worth it, these beans are delicious!
2015-04-14Potatoes.Auke Kok
The plants themselves don't drop anything. Only if the plant matures can you dig potatoes from the soil. If you can reach the soil from the side you can save yourself one dig by digging the soil as that will remove the plant from the top, but otherwise you need to dig twice: once to remove the plant, once to dig out the potatoes. You get 3-5 potatoes. Each potato gives one (set of) "potato eyes" which are the clones that can grow back to potatoes. The plant itself is purposedly drawn "low" and not as a full block as that's how the plant grows without support, mostly close to the ground. Be careful not to dig the plant when there's flowers! You have to wait until the soil below shows potatoes. It's fairly easy to see the difference, though.
2015-04-13Interval/chance update.Auke Kok
- Globally use the same across all veggies - use a shorter ABM, with lower chance I don't like the fact that if you have 100 plants, then half of them will ALL change phase every 90 seconds. It's just very unnatural. By changing the rate/chance proportionally, plants still grow about as fast (~1200secs for 90% growth rate to 5 phases), but there will be less abrupt changes and no massive block updates, just small amounts at a time. Yes, more ABM's will fire, but that's unlikely a load that it won't be able to handle.
2015-04-11Tomatoes.Auke Kok
Tomatoes appear to work simple enough, until you harvest them the first time: The plant stays! However, after the 3rd to 5th harvest, the plant wilts and needs to be removed, since no more tomatoes will grow on the plant. Per harvest you can get 1-2 tomatoes only. You can craft the tomatoes to tomato seeds, as expected.
2015-04-10Corn.Auke Kok
Corn plants are 2 blocks high, and yield corn cobs. These can be cooked to corn-on-the-cob, or processed to make corn seed (corn kernels, basically). Digging a mature plant yields the corn cob. A harvested corn plant "wilts", and needs to be dug away to make the land usable, or can be left as ornamental 2-block plant. Digging either top or bottom block works in all cases, although I need to verify that I've covered every block combo.

2015-04-08Initial commit.Auke Kok
This should be entirely working now - MELONS! Work as expected. A seed grows to a plant, plant flowers and an adjacent melon block grows, and is attached with a stem. Once the melon block is harvested (which drops 3-5 melon slices), the stem is lost and the plant will grow a new melon from it's mature stage.
