JSON Fields Explained

Custom Media

• name - The registry name of the item or block you wish to use as a medium. This can be from Minecraft itself (minecraft:glowstone) or other mods (galacticraft:meteoric_iron_ore)
• growthModifier- Every 10 ticks or so, the grow bed will roll a random number between 0 and 100. If this number is below the growthModifier value, the plant is forced to perform an extra tick (not a guaranteed growth, just an extra chance at growth).
• waterUsage - How much water this medium consumes from the grow bed every ~10 ticks
• boostModifier - If you have specific plants set in the plants array, this modifier will be added to the growthModifier when rolling. E.g. You have added terracotta as a medium and put carrots in the plants array. If your growthModifier is 10 and your boostModifier is 6, the chance of a successful roll is roughly 16% when growing carrots on a bed with terracotta as its growth medium.
• plants - A comma-seperated list of plants which the above boostModifier applies to. Only plants in this list will receive the benefits of the boostModifier.

Custom Bulbs

• color - The color of the bulb. Can be set to 0 (white), 1 (red), 2 (green), 3 (blue) and 4 (purple). All other fields are the same as the custom growth media above, except the waterUsage is replaced with energyUsage.

Custom Fluids

• name - The name of the fluid. For example "nitrogen", "hydrogen".
• growthModifier - Same as for media & bulbs
• boostModifier - Same as for media & bulbs
• plants - Same as for media & bulbs

Custom Tissues

Example

• name - The display name for the syringe and sample items
• entityId - The id of the entity from Minecraft/other mods
• result - The id of the item produced from this creature in the Tissue Scaffolder
