All mushrooms can be cooked using base game recipes.

The following mushrooms can be used to make dyes:

• Turkey tail x4 + 4 liters water = Blue dye
• Hawk wing x4 + 4 liters water = Green dye
• Dyer's polypore x4 + 4 liters water = Yellow dye
• Queen bolete x4 + 4 liters water = Orange dye
• Desert shaggy mane x4 + 4 liters water = Red dye
• Bloodred webcap x4 + 4 liters water = Red dye
• Blue chanterelle x4 + 4 liters water = Gray dye

All mushrooms can be potted in planters and flowerpots! 🌼

This blurb is for the nerds. I see you, I love you. If you have questions, suggestions, or complaints, please comment below or contact me via email at sheeponbeepon@gmail.com or message me on Discord as "sheepon". I'm also active in the Vintage Story discord server!

• Spawn Parameters
  • This mod uses Tenth Architect's and Flishster's model for converting real life annual precipitation data into numbers the game can use. If you'd like this graph, reach out! Annual precipitation data was mostly scraped from Wikipedia at the probably driest hot areas and probably wettest cold areas of their ranges on iNaturalist. Annual snowfall was not considered, and I used some amount of eye squinting at this map. Care was taken to avoid higher altitude data points from skewing the data drier than it should be.
  • Temperature data was mostly scraped from Wikipedia, I'm sorry. I'd search for the nearest center of civilization at the coldest and hottest ranges and use that data. I was guided where to look by this map.
  • In Vintage Story, mushrooms can spawn under "deciduous", "conifer", "tropical", and "any" trees only (or in fields). This means you will see birch boletes without birches :( Although I did research ectomycorrhizal partners for every mushroom, I'm not confident this information will exist for all mushrooms going forward (especially in the southern hemisphere). I COULD make every mushroom spawn only with partners, but I worry this would make mushrooms spawn less often overall. Likewise modding every vanilla and modded tree to have a unique treeType would also be a lot of work! Not every tree exists in Vintage Story either. However, care has been taken to align fungi with the appropriate forest types where possible.
• Who & Where? - The Biomes Mod
  • Care was taken to try to assign region data to fungi based on where they are likely to be native to prior to modern human movement. So although some fungi may be currently present in places like conifer plantations in Australia, if they're suspected to be introduced then you won't find them in those areas when using Biomes. Some of these decisions were based on sources, and some on intuition by looking at range data.
  • That said, a few fungi in this mod were given wider ranges because it doesn't make sense to add multiple identical fungi that can only be differentiated using microscopy or DNA work. Although the American chanterelle and the Europpean chanterelle are technically different species, you won't see the the missing one added here.
• Why aren't there individual mods for different regions of the world?
  • Lots of fungi have extremely wide ranges, often an entire hemisphere! If I made a mod for each region, there would be a lot of duplicate fungi and that sounds super annoying for anyone who wants to play with multiple mushroom mods. So, instead, all of the mushrooms will go into this one mod until it doesn't make sense to do it that way anymore. If there's interest in mushroom mods tailored to specific regions after I flesh out this mod, I'll happily make regional standalone mods after the fact. 

Plans! Will they come to be? Who can say.

• Southern hemisphere: There's not enough in the southern hemisphere when playing with the Biomes mod! All of the northern hemisphere sections have 40-60 mushrooms while southern sections only have 8-17. South American and Australian fungi have already had research started, but if you know about African fungi please message me!
• American PNW continued: Pig's ear (Gomphus clavatus), wooly chanterelle (Turbinellus floccosus), cat's tongue (Pseudohydnum gelatinosum), witch's butter (Tremella mesenterica), cauliflower mushroom (Sparassis crispa) and carbon antlers (Xylaria hypoxylon). These were on the list for Mycodiversity's initial release, but were postponed in favor of publishing a mod before my head melted!
• Big Favorites: World reknowned mushrooms from Japan and China definitely, as well as some emphasis on Russia.
• Fan Favorites: Do you have a mushroom that's important to you? Let me know and I'll try to include it!
• Features I daydream about:
  • Earthballs and earthstars that puff spores when you step on them
  • An artist's conk that you can chisel
  • Maybe cultivating saprophytic fungi
  • Maybe drying mushrooms for long term storage instead of fresh specimens lasting so long
  • Truffles. How do?

Compatible with Biomes, Mushroom Roulette, and Wild Farming - Revival!
Note: Wild Farming - Revival allows you to grow every mushroom even if it's not a saprobe. Not currently realistic, if you care about that kind of thing.

Expanded Foods - Mycodiversity shrooms will not work in its recipes currently

Known Issues:

• Any mod that uses the "harvested" state for mushrooms will current show a "?" block. I do not know of any mod that does though.
• Ramaria models could be better

1.0.2

• Removed custom fly agaric item shape. Expanded Foods used this shape for fried/breaded/deluxe/oiled mushrooms, and changing the shape made them all appear as raw fly agaric. The custom fly agaric block that aligns it with other veil/volva mushrooms is still in game though!

1.0.1

• Fixed the hedgehog mushroom being in Australia breaking Biomes. Hedgehogs are temporarily removed from Australia (not entirely sure they should be there anyway, but no sources I could find say that they're "likely introduced".)

1.0.0

• Released! Hopefully I remember to keep a changelog :^)

• Balduranne - Vintage Story staff who made the mushroom models and textures for the base game! Thank you!!! <3333
• sheepon - It's me! I editted all of the textures, tweaked old models, and made all the new models. And also did way too much research.
• Tenth Architect, Flishster and Hieronymus - Put together extremely useful resources for translating real world precipitation, temperature, and altitude data to Vintage Story. Their mods also greatly inspired me to make this mod, and their help has been crucial!
• Crabb - He brought the biologist community together when making the Biomes mod. Thank you so much! I'd have nowhere to put all these mushrooms without you!
• Ледяная Соня, l33tmaan and SpearAndFang - Helped with advice whenever things were broken. Thank you so much for supporting new modders! I love you ten million <3
