Description
Decay 2012 makes food in TFC work more like it did in Classic (or in 2012). Food weight and decay are represented as fractions and are shown as bars on items. Food decay can also be cut off of items by right clicking them with a knife in your inventory.
Specifically how the decay bar works:
- The percentage decay is calculated from the time from creation date to rotten date
- This percentage is squared, meaning that the first 10% of decay passes much slower than the last 90%
- Cutting decay costs exactly that % of the stack, and completely resets decay. You can only cut up stacks that are less than 90% and greater than 10% decayed
- The first 10% is shown with a decreasing green bar. Once that is used up, it is a full red bar, which decreases to nothing, and then it rots.
An important note: Everything about this mod except for cutting decay is cosmetic! It still works the same as in modern TFC.
This mod requires TerraFirmaCraft for 1.18+
