Description

This mod adds

4 Scrap pile types for worldgen: brush, trash, remains, metal.  These cannot be crafted but generate in the world naturally. (modpack devs: control with configs and data pack configured features)

7 Shard items: Bone Shard, Brick Shard, Flint Shard, Leather Shard, Paper Shard, Wooden Shard, Glass Shard

1 Garbage block - used to merge items together to recycle into other shards

1 Junk item - does nothing by itself, craft into garbage and check all the extra recipes added using JEI

Worldgen

Each of the four scrap piles generate in the world in different y-levels.  There are registered configured features, as well as a scraps.toml config with some worldgen controls

Example config

Custom scraps:mineable data tag to allow scrap piles to harvest the good items, also see the loot_tables

 
Recipes can be edited with data packs as usual

If you harvest correctly such as with a shovel you get better randomized loot

For example, actual bones instead of broken bone shards

- data tag for items is scraps:mineable , also see loot_tables

- If you harvest with an empty hand or break it any other way, you get randomized loot such as broken leather shards, broken bone shards, flint shards, etc

if you harvest without the right tool (default is some shovels - see data tags) then you get 'broken drops' such as bone scraps instead of the full bone

in the config file you can turn on the config to make them break as soon as the player touches or steps on them. its off by default
