      ATTENTION Forum Database Breach   03/04/2019

      There has been a breach of our database. Please make sure you change your password (use a password manager, like Lastpass).
      If you used this password anywhere else, change that too! The passwords themselves are stored hashed, but may old accounts still had old, insecure (by today's standards) hashes from back when they where created. This means they can be "cracked" more easily. Other leaked information includes: email, IP, account name.
      I'm trying my best to find out more and keep everyone up to date. Discord (http://invite.gg/TerraFirmaCraft) is the best option for up to date news and questions. I'm sorry for this, but the damage has been done. All I can do is try to make sure it doesn't happen again.

[Rule #1] Compost

2 posts in this topic

Note: this is NOT in any way related to ideas of manure or digestive "leftovers".

 

One thing that annoys me are items that drop in game with no use whatsoever. In this case, rotten flesh. Here's what I propose:

 

1) Convert "rotten flesh" to simply "rot". Rot would have weight similar to how food item stacks have weight. When trimming rot off food, rot would be generated as well, and can all be stacked together like normal food.

 

2) Compost, in the real world, is biomass + nitrates + water. Typically this would mean food waste, potassium nitrate (aka saltpeter), plant waste (yard clippings, leaves, sticks), and enough water to keep the microbes alive. All of these things are already in TFC. I propose a mechanism similar to a pit kiln. Place rot in a pit like unfired clay, fill with grass, hit it with saltpeter powder, and top off with sticks. Wait about 72 game hours and you have a compost block you can harvest with a shovel like coal.

 

3) Use: compost could be used like fertilizer to increase nutrient levels in soil, or could be used as a nutrient rich block for planting seeds.
