I made this for a modpack I was doing where you spawn on a grass block and is a pre to Ex Nihilo. If you are making a Skyblock modpack like me you can use this. You can also just play it for yourself too, I find it to be a fun gameplay loop. Make sure you get my permission first before using it in a modpack. You can do what you want with it but get my permission first. You can also try it for playing it yourself. Progression line:
Spoiler Welcome to Grasstech! A mudpack (omg stop autocorrecting notepad) about beating the game with just a grass block (oh wait you already know that) peaceful mode is recommended but on with the quests.First jump into the void (seriously) and spam right click when the sky turns black, you will get a void piece, also don't worry forgiving void is installed. Then right click the void piece on the grass block and you will get grass. Break the grass until you get seeds (you need 20). Craft them together to get 5 seed bunches, then craft those together to get compressed seeds and then eat them. After you eat them you can guess what happens. Craft the item with a seed bunch to get dirt. Now you can finally expand! Now you need trees. Craft 3 p## with a seed bunch to get a sapling. The you know what can be used as fertilizer like bone meal. Remember you need to make another block so you have enough space to use the tree. A good tip is to cut all the logs except the top one and make a crafting table to make slabs and place them in a square around the tree to catch the saplings so you don't have to do the thing to make them anymore. That's all my trash! time to do what any lazy modpack would and do Ex Nihilo! I assume you have internet or have used it before so I will end it here for now. If you have not played it (and have internet) you can find tutorials online very easily.
