This idea came to me when playing single biome worlds, and discovered that a lot of them lack any trees. Which, are kinda important for starting a Minecraft world.
That is where this mod comes in, adding a crate craftable from 4 dirt blocks of any kind to give you some light stuff to start your journey.
The crate drops:
- Saplings
- Apples
- Logs
- And the 4 dirt given back you used to craft it.
But, keep in mind this is intended for starting a world, there's nothing for easily getting stone, iron, or other ores.
Most biomes have dirt in them, so you can use this in almost every single biome world.
