CURSEFORGE SHORT SUMMARY
========================

🌾 Industrial farming, irrigation, crop health, composting & factory-scale food processing for Immersive Engineering — reforged for NeoForge 1.21.1. 🚜💧🍲⚙️

FULL CURSEFORGE DESCRIPTION
===========================

# 🌾🚜 IMMERSIVE FARMING REFORGED 🚜🌾

## 💧 Smarter farming. ⚙️ Industrial automation. 🍲 Factory-scale cooking.

**Immersive Farming Reforged** is an unofficial modernization and expansion of the original **Immersive Farming** addon.

Built for **Minecraft 1.21.1**, **NeoForge**, and the Immersive Engineering ecosystem, it transforms ordinary crop farming into a deeper industrial production chain — from soil preparation and irrigation to composting, crop health, harvesting support, cooking, processing, and fermentation. 🌱➡️🌾➡️🏭➡️🍲

> ⚠️ **VERSION NOTICE**
>
> Features can vary between uploaded files. The integrated **Industrial Kitchen** systems are available only in releases whose changelog explicitly lists the Immersive Cooking integration. Older builds may contain only the farming modernization features. Always read the file changelog before updating a world. 📦🔍

# ✨ CORE FARMING FEATURES

## 💦 Irrigation & Sprinklers

Build practical irrigation networks instead of placing water beside every field.

- 📐 Configurable irrigation radius
- 🌱 Irrigation-aware crop and soil behavior
- 🧪 Treated Water support for healthier farmland
- ⚙️ Designed to fit naturally into industrial farm layouts

## 🦠 Crop Disease & Field Health

Farming is no longer completely passive. Crops and soil can require real management.

- 🦠 Configurable crop disease system
- 🔁 Disease can spread between nearby fields
- ☠️ Severe disease can destroy crops when left untreated
- 🧪 Treated Water can cure diseased soil
- 💦 Irrigation and field health interact with each other
- 🎛️ Disease chance, spread, lethality, and related behavior are configurable

## 🌱 Soil Preparation & Fertility

Prepare the land, maintain fertility, and build fields that reward proper care.

- 🪓 Multi-stage soil tilling
- 🌾 Crop growth requires correctly prepared soil
- 🟤 Fertile soil mechanics
- ♻️ Compost can increase soil fertility
- 📉 Fertility is consumed as crops grow
- 🦴 Optional control over vanilla bone meal behavior
- 🥾 Optional farmland trampling protection
- ⚙️ Server-friendly configuration options

## ♻️ Composting & Industrial Agriculture

Turn organic resources into useful farming inputs.

- ♻️ Compost items for crop and soil improvement
- 🏭 Industrial Composter multiblock foundation
- 🔧 Industrial-style field infrastructure
- 📦 Automation-focused design
- 🚜 Optional compatibility hooks for supported farming-cart mods
- 🧩 Built to expand into larger Immersive Engineering production lines

# 🍲🔥 INDUSTRIAL KITCHEN INTEGRATION 🔥🍲

Immersive Farming Reforged is expanding beyond crop production by integrating the MIT-licensed **Immersive Cooking & Farming** project directly into the mod.

The goal is one coherent farming-and-food-processing addon — not two unrelated mods packed into one file. 🌾⚙️🍽️

## 🍲 Industrial Cookpot

Automate bulk cooking for supported food mods.

- 🥕 Large-scale ingredient input
- 🍛 Automated cooking-pot recipes
- 📦 Item input and output automation
- 🛢️ Fluid handling where supported
- ⚡ FE-powered industrial processing
- 🧩 Recipe compatibility with supported cooking mods

## 🔥 Grill Oven

Process multiple smoking and grilling recipes in an industrial multiblock.

- 🥩 High-throughput smoking
- 🥔 Parallel food processing
- ⚡ Energy-based operation
- 📥 Automated input
- 📤 Automated output
- 🏭 Immersive Engineering-inspired factory workflow

## 🧪 Industrial Food Fermenter

Create a dedicated fermentation stage for food and beverage production chains.

- 🍇 Fermentation recipes
- 🛢️ Fluid-based processing
- ⏳ Timed industrial production
- ⚙️ Item, fluid, and FE automation
- 🍷 Optional compatibility with supported food and beverage mods

## 🔪 Food Processor

A general-purpose ingredient-processing machine for expanded factory kitchens.

- 🥕 Ingredient preparation
- ⚙️ Automated processing recipes
- 📦 Factory input and output support
- 🧩 Extensible compatibility design

> 🧪 The Food Processor and any other experimental machine should be considered available only when explicitly marked as functional in the release changelog.

# 🔄 COMPLETE PRODUCTION LOOP

Build a complete industrial food chain:

**🌱 Prepare soil → 💧 Irrigate fields → 🧪 Control disease → ♻️ Restore fertility → 🌾 Grow crops → 🚜 Move harvests → ⚙️ Process ingredients → 🍲 Cook food → 🧪 Ferment products → 📦 Automate everything**

The systems are designed to work together while still allowing players and modpack authors to configure or disable mechanics they do not want. 🎛️🧰

# 🧩 COMPATIBILITY

## ✅ Main Ecosystem

- 🟠 Immersive Engineering
- 🌾 Vanilla farming systems
- 🧱 NeoForge automation APIs
- 💧 Item, fluid, and energy transport systems compatible with standard NeoForge capabilities

## ➕ Optional Integrations

Support depends on the installed release and is loaded only when the related mod is present.

- 🥘 Farmer’s Delight
- 🍺 Brewin’ and Chewin’
- 🍇 Let’s Do: Vinery
- 🐄 Let’s Do: Farm & Charm
- 🛢️ Immersive Petroleum
- 🚜 AstikorCarts Redux or supported cart successors
- 📖 JEI / EMI recipe viewing
- 🔍 Jade information overlays

Check the **Relations** tab and each file changelog for the exact dependency versions supported by that release. 🔎📋

# 📦 INSTALLATION

1. 🧱 Install **Minecraft 1.21.1**.
2. 🔷 Install a compatible **NeoForge 21.1.x** build.
3. ⚙️ Install the matching **Immersive Engineering 1.21.1** release.
4. 🌾 Place the **Immersive Farming Reforged** JAR in the `mods` folder.
5. 🧩 Add any optional compatibility mods you want.
6. ▶️ Start the game and verify the loaded-mod list.

> 🚫 **Do not install the original Immersive Cooking & Farming JAR beside a Reforged release that already includes the Industrial Kitchen integration.**
>
> Both mods may register overlapping content and can cause duplicate IDs, recipe conflicts, or startup failures.

# 💾 UPDATING & WORLD SAFETY

- 💾 Back up your world before every major update.
- 📋 Read the changelog for registry, recipe, and configuration changes.
- 🧱 Do not remove machines from a modded world without checking migration notes.
- 🔄 Legacy `immersivecooking:*` compatibility depends on the specific release.
- ⚠️ Never assume that an experimental build is safe for a long-term production world.
- 🧪 Test major updates on a copy of your world first.

# 🛠️ CONFIGURATION & MODPACKS

Immersive Farming Reforged is designed with modpacks and servers in mind. 🎛️🌐

Configurable systems can include:

- 💦 Sprinkler radius
- 🦠 Disease activation and spread
- ☠️ Disease lethality
- ♻️ Compost growth multiplier
- 🥾 Farmland trampling protection
- 🦴 Vanilla bone meal restrictions
- 🚜 Optional compatibility integrations
- ⚙️ Additional machine balancing options as industrial systems are finalized

Modpack inclusion is welcome under the project license and CurseForge distribution rules. 📦✅

# 🧪 DEVELOPMENT STATUS

This is an **unofficial modernization fork and expansion**.

The project is being rebuilt for modern Minecraft rather than mechanically copied from the old Forge version. Systems are adapted to NeoForge 1.21.1, Java 21, modern registries, capabilities, data generation, dedicated-server loading, and automated GameTests. 🔧🧱🧪

Expect active development, balancing changes, and occasional breaking changes during early releases. Development builds may contain incomplete visuals, recipes, machines, or compatibility modules. 🚧

# 🐛 BUG REPORTS

Found a problem? Use the project’s **Issues** link and include:

- 📌 Mod version
- 🧱 Minecraft version
- 🔷 NeoForge version
- ⚙️ Immersive Engineering version
- 🧩 Full mod list
- 📄 Latest log or crash report
- 🔁 Clear reproduction steps
- 🖼️ Screenshots when useful

Reports without logs are much harder to diagnose. 🔍
