What's new

The Wilderness Bound drop is by far one of the best Minecraft drop so far. It finally introduced some long-requested features
like concrete slabs and stairs, wool slabs and stairs, red leaves and more...<br/>
However, it still feels incomplete. That's where Hendrix's Better Wilderness Bound comes in!<br/>
This mod aims to improve the Wilderness Bound drop and make it even better by introducing new blocks, mobs, foods and game mechanics

-------------------------

### 🎁 Features

#### CALCITE BLOCK FAMILY
Calcite finally has its own block set, made by slabs, stairs, walls and variants.

![calcite_blocks.png](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JimiIT92/BetterWildernessBound/refs/heads/master/.docs/calcite_blocks.png)

These new blocks can be obtained by crafting or by using the Stonecutter.

### NEW SLABS, STAIRS, WALLS
Concrete Walls has been added to complete the Concrete block set.

![concrete_walls.png](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JimiIT92/BetterWildernessBound/refs/heads/master/.docs/concrete_walls.png)

In addition, Terracotta and Glazed Terracotta got their slabs, stairs and walls.
Glass, Tinted Glass and Stained Glass slabs and stairs has also been added.

![slabs_stairs_walls.png](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JimiIT92/BetterWildernessBound/refs/heads/master/.docs/slabs_stairs_walls.png)

Can be crafted like regular slabs, stairs and walls.

> Tinted Glass slabs and stairs propagate light unlike the full block 
> Glazed Terracotta slabs, stairs and walls don't attach to Slime Blocks like the full blocks

#### DAPPLED MOSS BLOCKS AND SHRUBS

New dappled-themed moss blocks has been added.

![moss_and_shrubs.png](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JimiIT92/BetterWildernessBound/refs/heads/master/.docs/moss_and_shrubs.png)

Red, Yellow and Orange Moss Blocks can be obtained randomly by using bonemeal on the grass in the Dappled Forest.<br/>
They can be turned into carpets and can be composted like other Moss Blocks.<br/>
Alongside the Moss Blocks, Yellow and Orange Shrubs have been added. The new Shrubs will randomly
generate in the Dappled Forest.<br/>
Red Shrubs can now also be potted, as well as the Yellow and Orange ones.

Additionally, if you grow a Poplar Tree on a Red, Yellow or Orange Block, you will always get
a Poplar Tree with the Red, Yellow or Orange leaves respectively, and not a randomized one.

#### MARSHMALLOWS

Marshmallows are a new type of food that can be crafted using a stick and a piece of sugar.

They can be cooked while aiming very close at a campfire.<br/>
After 10 seconds the marshmallow will be cooked (raw marshmallows cannot be eaten).

![marshmallow.gif](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JimiIT92/BetterWildernessBound/refs/heads/master/.docs/marshmallow.gif)

Restores 2 hunger points and 0.5 saturation, but can be eaten quickly and will return the stick after

#### BEARS
Brown Bears will now spawn in the Dappled Forest 

![brown_bear.png](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JimiIT92/BetterWildernessBound/refs/heads/master/.docs/brown_bear.png)

They act similar to Polar Bears but, unlike them, they freeze in the Powder Snow.<br/>
Drops Salmon.

They will try to catch Salmons in a one-block deep water and also empty Bee Nests or Bee Hives if there's
some honey inside

#### AUBURN WOLF
Wolves will spawn in the Dappled Forest with a new variant: the Auburn Wolf

![auburn_wolf.png](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JimiIT92/BetterWildernessBound/refs/heads/master/.docs/auburn_wolf.png)

#### SHELF MUSHROOMS ON BIRCH TREES
Shelf Mushrooms can now generate on Birch Trees as well

![birch.png](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JimiIT92/BetterWildernessBound/refs/heads/master/.docs/birch.png)

#### DISCONNECTED FENCES AND WALLS
Fences and Walls can now be disconnected from Blocks when right-clicked with an Axe or a Pickaxe respectively.

![fences.gif](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JimiIT92/BetterWildernessBound/refs/heads/master/.docs/fences.gif)

This will only work for blocks, you can't disconnect two fences or walls that are connected to each others.

#### PUMPKINS IN DAPPLED FOREST
Pumpkin Patches will sometimes generate in the Dappled Forest

![pumpkins.png](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JimiIT92/BetterWildernessBound/refs/heads/master/.docs/pumpkins.png)
### EXPLORER ARMOR SMITHING TEMPLATE
A new Armor Smithing Template has been added: Explorer.

![explorer_armor_template.png](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JimiIT92/BetterWildernessBound/refs/heads/master/.docs/explorer_armor_template.png)

One can be found in the Abandoned Campsite Secret Chests with a 10% chance.<br/>
Can be duplicated using Calcite

#### EXPLORER POTTERY SHERD IN ABANDONED CAMPSITES
One Explorer Pottery Sherds can now be found in all types of Abandoned Campsite Chests with a 7.5% chance

### ⚙ Requirements

### 🍺 Support the project

Developing and maintaining Better Wilderness Bound, requires a lot of time and effort,
but after all I really enjoy doing this ❤

Better Wilderness Bound is, and **<ins>always</ins>** will be, **<ins>FREE TO USE</ins>**.

If someone asked you some money to download Better Wilderness Bound, I am afraid to tell you that you got scammed! 😥

But if you **really** want to financially support the project (or just buy me some beer to produce more code), these are the only ways:

<p style="text-align:center"><a href="https://www.buymeacoffee.com/JimiIT92" target="_blank"><img src="https://cdn.buymeacoffee.com/buttons/default-orange.png" width=330 height=75 alt="Buy Me A Beer"></a>&emsp;&emsp;&emsp;&emsp;&emsp;<a href="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&amp;hosted_button_id=26VTWV4CY282S" target="_blank"><img src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/39/PayPal_logo.svg/1280px-PayPal_logo.svg.png" width=330 height=75 alt="Donate with PayPal"></a></p>

Any other website asking you money for this project is a scam, and you should immediately report it to your local authorities as well! 😡

-------------------------
### 😁 Conclusion

I hope you enjoy Better Wilderness Bound as much as I enjoy develop new ideas and content for it,
