ComPOTability

A compatibility mod that brings flower pot mods together and adds some cool stuff! This mod acts as a bridge between different flower pot mods and adds colored variants to make your builds look better.

What This Mod Does

ComPOTability is basically a compatibility layer that makes sure different flower pot mods work together without conflicts. It also adds some nice features like colored hanging pots and dyed flower pots.

Dynamic Mod Loading

This mod is smart about what it loads - it only activates features when the required mods are actually installed. Here's how it works:

Arts & Crafts + NotEnoughPots Integration

Only works when BOTH Arts & Crafts AND NotEnoughPots are installed
Adds dyed flower pots for all vanilla crops (potatoes, carrots, wheat, etc.)
Creates colored variants of potted plants in all 16 dye colors
Includes proper loot tables so you get the dyed pot + plant when you break them
Arts & Crafts pots now work with most plants from other mods

Beautify Integration

Only works when Beautify is installed
Adds colored hanging pots in all 16 dye colors
These work exactly like Beautify's original hanging pots
You can place flowers in them, grow them with bone meal, harvest with shears
Crafting recipes to convert existing hanging pots to colored versions

Gilded Sherds Integration

Only works when BOTH Arts & Crafts AND Gilded Sherds are installed
Creates gilded versions of Arts & Crafts pottery sherds
Includes recycling recipes to blast gilded sherds back into gold nuggets
Uses the Bookshelf API for proper integration
