Latest release (for Vintage Story 1.20.0 - 1.20.3 and 1.20.4, outdated):
compostgrass-v1.3.2.zip  1-click install
For testers (for Vintage Story 1.21.0-pre.1 - 1.21.6, potentially outdated):
compostgrass-v1.21.0-dev.2.zip  1-click install

A fix of an existing mod, should the original mod author ask I'll remove it. Please use  the bug tracker to submit requests.

Due to the way release versioning is handled on this site I've had to shift my versioning format.

compostgrass-v{gameversion}-dev.1 is 20 days  |compostgrass-v{gameversion}-dev.2 is 10 days.

 

The github now has a bash shell script and a powershell script for those that want to download and package themselves. When manually compiling change the version to the most recent game-version it's basically a text file.

If anyone has any other timescales they want to request open an issue on the git and I'll git to it.  ;P

I'm also down if anyone else  wants to help maintain  this going forward, I'm  going to be busy for the  next 6-months or so.

If I wanted it to be more realistic I'd need a compost starter/liquid and it would probably be more like 12-13 days. KentHD

KentHD, May 15th 2025 at 7:28 PM

Actually 10 days seems a reasonable time for grass compost. Good mod.

Matiamo , May 14th 2025 at 7:03 PM

It's a pretty basic json type mod. I am maintaining but not really  looking to develop the mod further. At this time at least. Caliess

I can look into it, but it would have to be on hold until I can get moved and settled in.

Caliess, May 12th 2025 at 1:06 AM

would it be possible to just have it as a config, with the default at 20? (or i suppose 480, if it only reads in hours)

Matiamo , Apr 14th 2025 at 12:47 AM

I don't have a good way to separate them besides making a second page. The versioning restrictions on the website make differentiating release channels pretty difficult. Due to this I've left it up to the server owner using those updaters to blacklist this mod and handle it's rather sparse updates manually.

RowanSkie, Apr 13th 2025 at 12:08 PM

By the way, people using mod updaters as well as servers that installed the 20-day variant might potentially download the 10-day variant.

Matiamo , Mar 22nd 2025 at 12:43 AM

I'm gonna work on this when I get the chance, best guess edit the modinfo file to give depending version of 1.20.4 Should still work  further up but if  not let me know.

RowanSkie, Mar 3rd 2025 at 4:11 AM

Having this non-crashing SemVer shenanigans:

3.3.2025 12:07:34 [Warning] [compostgrass] Dependency 'game': Failed parsing version string '1.20.*' at index 5: Expected PATCH version number, found '*' (best guess: 1.20.0)

Matiamo , Feb 24th 2025 at 8:18 PM

Should be fixed, my bad.

I think you forgot something...

[Error] [compostgrass-1.3.2.zip] Missing modinfo.json

 

Edit: Oh, I see. You had everything in a subfolder

nickzom, Feb 22nd 2025 at 1:22 PM

Says mod can't be loaded now after update

 

Psychomor, Feb 22nd 2025 at 11:34 AM

Helo. Error with missing mod info json btw. Mod cant by loaded in world. Stay save.

Matiamo , Feb 22nd 2025 at 6:14 AM

Updated versioning. In future feel free to open an issue for this. ;p

bumblebink, Jan 18th 2025 at 7:25 AM

Still working just fine in 1.20

Matiamo , Jun 6th 2024 at 8:40 PM

Pretty easy edit if you crack it open and open the main file in a text editor. ThePattyMelt

ThePattyMelt, Jun 3rd 2024 at 5:32 PM

Any way to adjust the yield of the conversion? I feel 16 compost is way too much for how easy it is to aquire 64 grass.

DeansOnToast, May 17th 2024 at 1:43 PM

Legendary, thanks for the update!

Matiamo , May 16th 2024 at 12:57 AM

I'm willing to cut it in half, but I'll start a poll. Here  

There are now two versions, 1.0.1 is half, 1.0.0 is full 20 days.

DeansOnToast, May 15th 2024 at 10:46 PM

Any chance of tweaking the grass compost time so using rot is always quicker? I'm going to edit the file myself but thought id comment so the suggestion is out there.😊
