[PLANNED] 2.1 Plans
Zepalesque opened this issue · 2 comments
These are features for version 2.1, which will contain the addition of two new biomes, along with some other potential features.
NOTE: This update will likely not be on 1.19.2. It will likely however be on 1.20.2/1.20.4, although this depends on the base Aether mod.
unrelated to biomes:
- Implement some things from the cancelled Aether Graviton addon
- Veridium Armor Trim material
- Refactor API features into separate library mod
New Biome: Quickoil Dunes / Quicksoil Oasis:
- Non-slippery quicksoil-based surface block (similar to soul soil when compared to soul sand)
- Dry shrubbery of some sort
- Holystone rock formations?
- Evaluate the possibility of making terrain gen in this biome flatter
- Cacti, potentially think of a unique design rather than just normal cacti
- Potentially an accessory/boot type to make traversing on quicksoil easier
- Prevent base mod gold dungeons from spawning (preferably without removing from
#aether:is_aether) and use alternate ones with cacti - Speaking of which, cacti
- Skulls of some sort? (Maybe add a cow skull, a bit cliché but it could be neat)
- flower for cacti, use a similar method to spore blossoms from vanilla for their model
- Some kind of sandstorm-like enemy? Maybe take inspiration from the new Breeze mob but make it sandy (with swirly particles perhaps?)
New Biome: Shimmering Hills (Crystal tree biome):
- Implement worldgen feature for fruitless crystal trees
- Plants: Purple flower, Daggerbloom, splitfern, Chromias (placeholder name)
- Use a grass color somewhere between frosted and normal grass colors
- Crystal hedgehog?
- Shimmering Crystal Trees (will glow a bit, some leaves may have glowing pod-like things in them, perhaps could be harvested with shears and used for… something idk)
- Crystal Saplings
- Enchanted Crystal saplings, which give the fruit tree (but take longer than most items to enchant)
- Shimmerfly (butterfly), maybe add a variation to the gilded groves as well (Goldenwing?)
- Maybe reimplement the Moonbud in this biome
