The world is dead. Restore the life and spark its regrowth using magic and technology!
Description

❗0.10 Alpha Testing
Update 0.10 Alpha versions are now available on CurseForge! Alpha builds offer a preview of planned changes and additions, but may be unstable and are subject to change.
This update will include Ecostabilizer, a brand new multiblock that will become the center of the progression, along with many QOL changes, reworked quest progression and other progression changes, mostly related to animals.
Part of these changes is available now!
If you're interested in trying out the 0.10 Alpha builds, make sure to share your feedback and report any issues!
📖Description
The world as you knew it is gone. Your task is to bring it back to life!
Inspired by Regrowth, Verdant Idea is a unique experience in which you start in a vast, empty world and eventually build a thriving civilization using magic and technology.
While this modpack takes inspiration from Regrowth, treat it more as a spiritual successor - there are many exciting changes and additions!
🍀Features
🌱 Completely custom world generation based on the vanilla world. Ever wanted to see your world as a complete wasteland? Well, maybe not, but now you can - just use the same seed and check it out!
🌱 Redesigned progression with many custom recipes and new mechanics
🌱 Over 300 quests with helpful tips and rewards meant to guide you in this desolate wasteland
🌱 Prefer a relaxed, carefree experience? The updated bonus spawn chest will make the early game much calmer, allowing you to enjoy it the way you like!
🌱 Obtain different resources with Mystical Agriculture, AgriCraft and Productive Bees
🌱 Build complex infrastructure with Immersive Engineering, PneumaticCraft, Thermal and Mekanism
🌱 Revive the world using Botania and Enchanted: Witchcraft
🛠️Beta Notice
This modpack is still in beta! Expect the addition of new mods, changes to the progression and worldgen. If there are any breaking changes, information will be provided in the changelog.
Since Verdant Idea is still growing, all feedback will be greatly apprecieated. I took a few risky choices, so I'd love to know what you think!
And obviously if you find any bugs - please let me know!
Known issues:
1. some of the bee information in EMI is wrong
2. some recipes use vanilla seeds, while others use their AgriCraft variants
3. MA enchanter sometimes doesn’t display item amounts in the JEI
