Biodiversity: Crops
Adds several new growable crops on farmland tiles. Part of the Biodiversity Suite
Description
Biodiversity is a major Vanilla+ expansion to plants and flora in Vintage Story
The Biodiversity mod suite aims to provide more farmland crops, trees, wood types, flowers, grasses, herb plants, and more, while retaining near Vanilla game mechanics and high compatibility with other major mods.
A long term goal is to allow for a player to travel the world and always find new plants or materials to use, or a server to use the Biodiversity mods to build up trade networks of exotic flowers, woods, and herbs.
This is planned to be a community effort, with many modders contributing their skills and talents to provide the Vintage Story community with as much new flora as we can, in a manner that looks like the developers themselves could have added it, works out of the box with as many other mods as possible, and optimized as much as possible to prevent excess lag on older machines or large servers.
Current Issues being patched soon
Crops may need some further rebalancing of drop rates and temperature ranges.
Roadmap for post 1.0.0 will be posted in our discord soon.

Known Issues
We have a google sheet to track vanilla plants and new plants we plan to add.
We are looking for people to help with:
- getting a wiki setup on all the types of plants
- finally talented modelers and texture artists to make the plants, flowers and trees we want to provide the community in 1.22 and the 1.0 release!
Share this mod page around with your friends and server mates, we want to reach as many plant brained modders/artists as we can!
Is this Expanded Foods compatable?
You can use this mod with Expanded Foods. But note that only vanillia cooking is avaliable for biodiversity crops. Expanded Foods recipies for this mod is in progress. Due to the vast amount of content in EF it will take time to impliment all recepies.
Why are there different art styles for similar items?
