[suggestion] Reeds in Mangrove Swamps

[SkylordElberich]

Makes more sense than grass, doesn't it?

[Talavaj]

Yes, I don't understand why this isn't the case.

Because mangrove is a safe biome, marsh isn't.

 

[SenhorLevi00]

indeed.

For now..

Agreed, reeds need to be in a dangerous environment. But mangroves really do need something in them... they feel so plain and deserted for a biome that has so much potential (and looks so cool!)

Clockodials would be awesome and someone suggested "ticks". Or maybe make water snakes that live in mangrove trees.

Also I think SW needs some sort of tentacle enemy so that Wickerbottom can use her best book. Mangrove could have a new type of water tentacles as well.

I just put together a mod called Reedgroves that will allow us to test alternate growing things in the mangrove biomes. It's attached to this post.

 

Besides Grass, you can also configure it to spawn Reeds, Tentacles and... something else. Remember to configure it, since Grass is the default.

 

This mod overwrites the generation behavior for the grass in mangrove biomes, so don't use it on an existing save file unless you want its mangrove grass to be overwritten.

Maybe have both in the biome, but have reeds a lot less common( along with new mobs) and maybe have them mostly submerged so you'd need a tool to get them(machete maybe)
