About this project

What does Sowback add?

Sowback

Right-click a ripe crop to harvest it: it drops its harvest, keeps one seed and is already replanted.

What it does

  • Right-click a ripe crop: it drops its harvest and is a seedling again. Nothing is broken, nothing needs replanting.
  • One seed of the harvest goes back into the ground, so you get exactly what breaking and replanting would give.
  • Wheat, carrots, potatoes, beetroot, nether wart, cocoa, and crops from other mods that are built on the vanilla crop.
  • Unripe plants are left alone, so you can sweep a field without looking.
  • Hold the Seamstrike key and one right-click anywhere in the field, even on a seedling, harvests every ripe plant in it.
  • Hoes harvest a square: right-click with an iron hoe for 3x3, diamond for 5x5, netherite for 7x7. Works from an unripe plant too.
  • Sugar cane, cactus and bamboo: right-click to cut them down to their lowest block, which grows back.

Needs

  • Minecraft 26.3, Fabric Loader, Fabric API
  • Installed on both the client and the server (the server does the harvest, the client swings the arm)
