# Granular Hunger
\nThis mod reworks the Minecraft’s hunger system to increase granularity, and ports some systems from Better Than Wolves’ Hardcore Hunger.<\/p>\n
This mod requires that client and server both have it installed in order for it to work, otherwise weird behavior will occur.<\/p>\n
## Features:
\n– Full hunger bar is now 60 units. 1 shank = 6 units
\n– Implements `granular_hunger:hunger_pips` item component that supplements the `minecraft:food` item component
\n– Implements `granular_hunger:hunger_cost` player attribute. Base value is 1. Higher value = Lower exhaustion required to drain hunger pips.
\n– When under Hunger effect, you can’t eat food, cake is not an exception.
\n– Saturation is now fat, and you don’t spawn with any.
\n– Natural regeneration is reworked to take some time when above 4 shanks (24 hunger units).
\n – Easy difficulty: Regen half a heart every 12 seconds.
\n – Normal or Hard difficulty: Regen half a heart 20 seconds. <\/p>\n
