Compost Mod

Compost bins turn organic matter like leaves, flowers, grass etc into soil. The bin is operated by punching or right-clicking.

Punchrecipeing

On punching (left-clicking) a compost bin, the pointed_thing is inserted into the bin and dirt is transferred back. If pointed_thing is compostable and there is a free slot for it, it disappears inside the bin. After that, if hand is empty and there is soil in the bin, it appears in the hand.

Right-clicking the bin opens its menu. 4x2 slots for intputs and 2x2 slots for output.

Once there are at least 8 pieces of acceptable inputs are inserted (each input slot is filled), a timer starts. Every 30 seconds it adds 10% to the composting progress, so it takes 5 minutes to create a block of soil.

Once 100% is reached, 8 pieces of input disappear and one block of soil is added to output. The progress counter is reset to 0. Optionally, wear-out is computed.

If there are not enough inputs, the timer (if it was set) is stopped (and it works like a small chest).

Inputs

Acceptable inputs are groups flora, leaves, flower, plant, sapling. Other inputs are rejected. Food is rejected on esthetical grounds :-)

Outputs

The common output is the default:dirt. But sometimes an other random vergeatble appears in output slot (Useful in singlenode worlds). Abstract an new vegetable grows on compost. The possible output vegetables are group flora, sapling, seed or registered decoration with deco_type "simple".

Nodebox

If there is nothing in the bin, it looks empty when viewed from top (node "compost:wood_barrel_empty"). If there's anything in it (inputs or soil), it looks full of dirt (node "compost:wood_barrel").
