\n# ResourceCraft: The Hardcore Ecosystem Engine<\/p>\n
**ResourceCraft** is a total overhaul of Minecraft’s spawning and resource mechanics, designed specifically for **hardcore players** and **speedrunners** who demand a deterministic, consistent, and high-performance world. <\/p>\n
By replacing the chaotic and infinite random loops of vanilla Minecraft with a **seed-based finite resource system**, ResourceCraft transforms every mob and item into a permanent part of your world’s strategy.<\/p>\n

> ### \u26a0\ufe0f WARNING: READ BEFORE INSTALLING
\n> * **New Worlds Only**: It is **strongly recommended** to only use this mod in new worlds. Adding this to an existing world will drastically change mob distribution and may cause unexpected behavior.
\n> * **Mob Farm Compatibility**: This mod **purposely renders traditional mob farms useless**. Because spawns are deterministic and persistent based on chunk state and seed noise, “spawn-cycle” farms (relying on infinite random loops) will no longer function.
\n> * **Hardcore Intent**: This mod is balanced for high-stakes gameplay where every encounter and every resource counts.<\/p>\n

## \ud83d\ude80 Core Mechanics<\/p>\n
### \ud83e\udde0 The Resource Spawning Engine
\nResourceCraft replaces the random spawn cycle with a **High-Density Deterministic Engine**. Using a multi-layered noise system derived directly from your **World Seed**, the mod pre-calculates a dense population of mobs for every chunk.
\n* **Swarmed Environments**: Expect locations like **Ancient Cities** and **Warped Forests** to be swarmed with inhabitants. The engine favors intense, populated clusters that stay persistent.
\n* **Seed-Based Logic**: Every encounter is deterministic. If a zombie spawns in a specific cave on Seed `12345`, it will *always* be there.<\/p>\n
### \ud83c\udff9 Universal Projectile Durability
\n* **Shared Durability**: All arrows\u2014whether shot by players, Skeletons, or through Infinity bows\u2014now have a finite “life cycle” of 6 Health Points.
\n * **Surface Impact**: Hits against blocks or the ground cost **1 HP**.
\n * **Successful Damage**: Hitting a mob costs **2 HP**.
\n* **Infinite Reclamation**: You can pick up **any** shot arrow. Skeletons no longer fire “phantom” arrows\u2014every shot they take is a physical resource you can reclaim.
\n* **Dynamic Death Drops**: Arrows stuck in a mob will **physically fall from their body** upon death, allowing you to reclaim your ammo directly from the battlefield.<\/p>\n
### \ud83d\udce6 Eternal Items & Finite Spawners
\n* **Eternal Items**: Item entities **never despawn** due to age. Every item remains in the world until picked up or destroyed.
\n* **Single-Use Spawners**: Mob spawners are finite resources. They deplete and deactivate after a single successful spawn.
\n* **Spawner Revenge**: Breaking a spawner triggers one **final extra spawn**, giving you a last chance at resources before the spawner is permanently gone.
\n* **One Warden per City**: Each Ancient City is limited to a single Warden. Once defeated, the city is permanently cleared.<\/p>\n

## \ud83c\udf0d World Balancing<\/p>\n
### \ud83d\udccd Habitat-Aware Placement
\nResourceCraft intelligently scans the environment to ensure logical mob placement across Surface Land, Deep Caves, Aquifers, and the Nether\/End.
\n* **Night-Time Persistence**: Surface animals (pigs, cows, etc.) now spawn during both day and night, ensuring the ecosystem remains populated regardless of the time of day.
\n* **Abandoned Encounters**: Discover rare “abandoned” spawns generated by the seed noise engine, such as lonely boats in swamps, armor stands in forests, or stray minecarts in deep caves.
\n* **Bedrock Protection**: Prevents “Nether Roof” spawns by strictly enforcing bedrock ceiling checks.<\/p>\n
### \ud83c\udfdb\ufe0f Structural Intensity
\n* **Nether Swarms**: Striders and Ghasts populate the Nether at much higher densities, with Striders correctly inhabiting lava lakes as persistent resources.
\n* **Warped Forests**: A strict, swarmed ecosystem of Endermen\u2014Magma Cubes have been evicted.
\n* **Trial Dungeon Stability**: Improved vertical collision logic ensures that mobs in structures never spawn inside blocks or suffocate.<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
## \u2699\ufe0f Configuration (Mod Menu Support)<\/p>\n
ResourceCraft offers deep customization via **Mod Menu**. Every gameplay mechanic is tunable in real-time.<\/p>\n
* **Fractional Scaling**: Weights support high-precision floats for extremely fine-tuned mob distributions.
\n* **Spawn Weights**: Fine-tune the probability and density of specific mobs (Zombies, Blazes, Phantoms, etc.).
\n* **Environmental Gains**: Multiply mob counts for specific biomes or structures.
\n* **Cluster Limits**: Set hard caps for cluster sizes and altitude offsets.
\n* **Performance Globals**: Configure background thread counts and spawn grace periods.<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
## \ud83d\udee0\ufe0f Technical Details
\n* **Minecraft**: 26.1.2 (Mojang Mappings)
\n* **Loader**: Fabric
\n* **Stability**: Optimized world-exit cleanup prevents chunk-loading deadlocks and memory leaks.
\n* **Requirements**: MidnightLib, Fabric API<\/p>\n
