Infested is a Fabric mod for Minecraft 1.14.2 that aims to expand the amount of infested blocks in the game while also fixing related inconsistencies of existing world gen relating to infested blocks.
The reason behind bookshelves having infested variants is because irl silverfish eat paper and can be found in books.
Adds:
- Infested Mossy Cobblestone Block
- Infested Bookshelf Block
Changes:
- World gen now has a chance (1/12th) to place the infested variants of Mossy cobblestone and bookshelves
TODO:
- Add config file to change infestation chance
- Add more infested variants of blocks
- add Infested mossy and cracked stone bricks to stronghold gen
- modify certain structures like villages and igloos (any structures that use nbt parts) to include world gen changes
- Cause infection to be based on world seed
