Bok's Banging Butterflies
This mod adds butterflies with a full life cycle to the world of Minecraft. It
features several butterfly species as well as several moth species. Most are
based on real-life butterflies but a few are pure fantasy creatures.
Features
Butterflies and Moths
There are several species of butterfly and moths in the mod, each with their
own design and behaviour. Some will be larger, some will move faster, some will
live longer than others. Some are dimorphic, some love apples, some will live
in wood or fruit.
Butterflies can be caught or released using a butterfly net. Once caught, they
can be bottled and placed in the world as decorative objects. They can also be
stored in a butterfly book where you can learn more about them.
Eggs
Butterflies will lay eggs in leaves if they get close to them. The eggs will
eventually hatch into caterpillars. If a player breaks the eggs, they will
drop. Players can then replant these eggs on other leaves.
Caterpillars
After living on the leaves for a short time, a caterpillar will eventually
build a chrysalis. If the caterpillars end up on any other block, they will
instead starve to death.
Players can pick up caterpillars and move them to other leaf blocks if they
wish.
Chrysalises
Built by caterpillars, these will eventually hatch into new butterflies within
the world. These cannot be moved by players and will be destroyed if they
attempt to do so.
Silk
Some moth cocoons will drop silk, which can be crafted into string or paper.
Unfortunately, this kills the moth.
Scrolls and Books
Butterflies can also be pinned to a piece of paper to create a scroll where you
can look at the butterfly in detail. Unfortunately this kills the butterfly.
These scrolls can also be placed around your world as decoration.
Scrolls can also be placed in a book, allowing the player to collect
more detailed information on each butterfly species.
Jars
Butterflies and caterpillars can be placed into jars. These are decorative
items that can be placed in the world. Butterflies and caterpillars placed
this way will not die, lay eggs or create chrysalises.
If you want to get the butterfly or caterpillar back, they can be released by
using the bottle while not highlighting a block.
Flower Pollination
Butterflies will occasionally fly toward and pollinate flowers. This will spawn
flower buds that will eventually bloom into full flowers.
Breeding
Butterflies can be bred by players feeding them their favourite flower (or
other plant). You will need to learn what their favourite food is by studying
the butterfly book.
Server Config
There are now server config options to help manage butterfly growth. You can
find them in your world folder, under
/serverconfig/butterflies-server.toml.The available options are:
double_egg_chance: Defines the chance a butterfly has double the eggs
(default:
0.0625).egg_limit: Defines how many eggs each butterfly can lay (default:
1).max_density: Defines how many butterflies can be in a 32x32x32 region
before breeding is disabled. If set to zero, this is ignored (default:
16).enable_lifespan: If set to TRUE butterflies will die naturally
(default:
true).enable_pollination: If set to TRUE butterflies will pollinate flowers and
cause them to spread (default:
true)Latest Release
