Module TypeStand Alone
Created bySparks, Bloo and SpecialBuilder32
Compatible MC Versions1.13+

Features

Mooshrooms have a rare chance to spawn in a shroomite shroom. A shroomite mushroom will spawn spores that spread mycelium to nearby blocks. Additionally, Cows that come in contact with a spore will turn into a Mooshroom -- this will generate a red or a brown Mooshroom depending on the parent shroomite mushroom.

Spores

A shroomite mushroom is a special mushroom that will release visible spores that spread out from the shroomite shroom, they come in brown and red. If a spore is in the air, it will slowly float down and in random directions until expiring or landing on a block. A spore has a low chance to spawn in a new shroomite mushroom if there are no other shroomite mushrooms nearby. If a shroomite mushroom is mined or broken, it will no longer release spores.

Spores move very slowly and take multiple Minecraft days to spread and infect blocks.

Technical Details

Spores can only spread through blocks that do not have a full hitbox. The module respect the randomTickSpeed gamerule, therefore the infection can be stopped by setting randomTickSpeed to 0.

Lava, water, powder snow, cobwebs and sunflowers will destroy spores that come in contact. Spores cannot spread through solid blocks and can climb up 1 block to continue spreading. Spores that move over a drop will float slowly down until they land or die.
