A future goal for this fork is to have data-driven bee/tree/butterfly species so that players don't have to code a mod in order to add more species to Forestry.

Some thoughts:

• Bee and butterfly species can be data-driven easily (although with some limitations)
  • Having hives for new bee species spawn in the world would require some sort of KubeJS plugin to add the hives
  • Assets for changed/new species might be missing if they are added using /reload
  • Custom bee/butterfly effects will be impossible to make data-driven, although potion effects might be possible to support
  • Custom flower types won't be possible, but simple flower types that use tags will be possible to make data-driven
• Tree species will be much more difficult/impossible
  • How will tree feature generators be handled?
  • What about custom wood blocks? KubeJS plugin would be needed to add new types of wood. Even then, if Forestry wood types support the same wooden blocks/items as vanilla in the future, how would a custom wood type add a boat? A wooden sign?
  • Custom pod fruit blocks?
  • Custom fruit types?
  • Custom tree effects? Forestry has none built-in and doesn't define how something like a potion tree effect would work.
