Welcome to Survival Essentials Pack: Renewables!
This pack adds or changes various aspects of Survival gameplay that I felt were lacking or underutilized. These changes have been made with balanced gameplay in mind while also keeping everything as "vanilla" as feasible.
SEP: Renewables focuses on correcting the existing blocks and items that are finite or unnecessarily difficult to obtain.
The current version is designed for Singleplayer Minecraft 1.21. Multiplayer is untested, but should work.
Adds various methods for obtaining resources renewably: including new crafting recipes, modified loot tables, and some minor overhauls of mechanics, among others.
