A brand new mod is joining the roster, starting off in beta for our supporters right now! Sniffers are a very recent and interesting addition to the game, and we sniffed out some ideas to expand their place in the game… with our new mod, Sniffed Out!
Features
Right now, Sniffed Out is starting small. The beta available for our supporters contains just a few features, but it will grow over time - we just wanted to put out a soft showcase of what we're working on.
The first feature is something a lot of the community asks for - Lit Torchflowers. Torchflowers will not be lit by default, to not mess with Vanilla decorative functionality too much, but you can now light Torchflowers with Flint and Steel or Fire Charges for them to emit light. You can light them a second time to give off more light.
We have also introduced a vine-like plant that may seem familiar to you… Nightshade Growths are a cool cyan color that can be spread with bonemeal and sheared to obtain a unique flower that may remind you of the good ol' days. They will only bloom on a specific set of log blocks…
And for those log blocks, in typical Team Abnormals fashion, to no one's surprise, we have added a new woodset! Vessel Ferns are a new plant also obtained from Sniffers, and will grow into a larger version, which will then grow into an even larger version, with stems and everything! Vessel Stems come in three colors and are all crafted into the same dark green plank variant. Vessel Ferns are also built up of a thin transparent part called Vessel Veils, also coming in three colors. These can be crafted into full blocks that can be used as windows.
We have a lot in mind for this mod in the future, but you will have to wait and see when we get to that! Surely, the Sniffer was not the only creature around in its era, right?
Sniffed Out is available now as a 1.20.1 beta for patrons & supporters in our discord server!
