Its her mod, she can do what she wants, but that doesn't make her immune from the blowback when she does something that's incredibly stupid. I've automated botania a hundred times over, and last time I even managed to hook the runic altar into my ME net to craft runes on demand for Christ sake.īut I do like to make like 5 dayblooms and set them up at the start of the game so I can fill a manapool or two while I'm digging out a base, mining resources, and getting infrastructure going, and now I cant do that because the flowers will disappear and do almost nothing before I even return from a single mining trip. I'm not someone uses the huge number of passive flowers either, I'm not that tiny minority that so offends Vazkii. The bigger problem is the justification for it, and the reek of ego that follows that basically is telling people "You can only have fun my way, or you can fuck off because I'm to good for you" Maybe something like "passive flowers produce such a meager amount of mana that using them for more than infusing a few items is impractical at best and impossible at worst."Īnd the problem with hard coding it is that we're being told we're having fun the wrong way even though the overwhelming opinion on withering is that its stupid and to disable it at first chance. Some stronger wording might have done a fair bit to get people to try other flowers instead of changing the config and throwing away time and space on increasingly silly numbers of dayblooms because it's "easy".

The lexica does say that passive flowers are only for getting started, but the difference is far more than the wording suggests, maybe even a full order of magnitude. Knowing what I do now, I would never make the ten or twelve dayblooms that the lexica implies are necessary to getting started - perhaps not even two. I had no idea at the time how much you could do with a few endoflames and a single big spruce tree for charcoal. I left decay on in the config (I have the first version with decay on one profile and the version after that on another) to see how it played, and after my initial dayblooms wilted, I moved on to endoflames, but not because they are better - it was because they don't decay and they are easy to supply. Making a field of dayblooms is probably more time and resource intensive than automating endoflames.
The flowers are way too much of a pain in the ass to make to have them decay.
