AppleCore provides a foundation for other mods to change Minecraft’s food and hunger systems. On its own, this mod does not add new features or change how you play. Instead, it is a required library that allows other mods to introduce complex hunger mechanics.
Features:
- Acts as an API that other mods can use to modify hunger and food mechanics.
- Allows mods to introduce extensive tweaks to the hunger system.
- Enables mechanics like diminishing returns, which encourages eating a variety of foods.
- Provides the basis for mods that add hunger and health regeneration in Peaceful mode.
Mods that use AppleCore:
- Hunger Overhaul – Extensive tweaks to hunger and related mechanics
- The Spice of Life – Encourages dietary variety through diminishing returns
- Hunger In Peace – Normal hunger and health regen in peaceful
Screenshots:
Tooltip: Food values are shown when holding shift
Hunger/saturation HUD overlay: When holding food, the hunger/saturation you’d get from eating it flashes on the screen
Food exhaustion HUD underlay: Food exhaustion gets shown as a progress bar behind the hunger bar
