Sequencing Poppy & Dandelion added to Bio Factory

[MonsWTF]

Two recipes are added for the Bio Factory, for the creation of making
Poppy and Dandelion flowers.

Time: 32 Seconds
Fuel Cost: 16 Charcoal
Input: 96 Bone meal

Output: 32 Poppy/Dandelion (Dependent on which you choose)

So....

• Is the timing too short? Is it just right?
• Should the input/output be changed any to balance it out? (The values were chosen to ensure that the factory recipe never trumps the original Bone meal-to-Flower ratio)
• Should there be 'waste' outputs? (i.e. wheat seeds, since those are collected alongside the flowers)

I think this looks ok, if we left it in forever would it be better than
just bonemealing them out like people did before?

Oh, of course not. To do a quick test I set up a basic piston farm that pushes the grass blocks back-and-forth.

Using 6 and a half stacks (slightly more than 4 runs using the above recipe), I was able to gather:

• 3.5 stacks of Poppies
• 4.8 stacks of Dandelions
• 3.3 stacks of Azure Bluets
• 2 stacks of the 4 types of tulips
  Note: I did this in vanilla minecraft, but the rates should still be the same between Poppy and Dandelion.

Using the factory recipe, 6 stacks of bone meal and a stack of charcoal would give 2 stacks of just Poppies or Dandelions. Are the return values too low, should it be raised before being put on CivTest?
