About this project
What does Rotting Storage add?
The intention of this mod is to make storage management a little more challenging, by making rot left in a container affect perish rates.
Rot and any spoiling items will accelerate the perish rate of items stored in the same container.
Spoilage rate is applied exponentially, but with a low base (default 1 + 0.005 per item). The increase per item can be defined in the config file in ModConfig/RottingStorage.json or via ConfigLib.
The mod is only required on the server, but will throw some warnings if not present on the client. This is because the game expects BlockEntityBehaviors to be registered on both.
