LegionX Enhanced Farming Mechanics (LEFM) adds realistic survival farming to your Paper server. Designed for HappyMC — built by OrbitOmen.
🌵 Cactus
- Grows freely in any condition — dark, indoors, underground
- Stops growing past 3 blocks tall without clear sky above (the "flower" stage)
- Glass roofs count as open sky — greenhouse builds still work
🌾 Crops
- Wheat, carrots, potatoes, beetroot, melon and pumpkin stems need light level 9+ to grow
- Growth slows 50% at night without artificial light
- Crops left dark AND dry for 10+ minutes lose a growth stage (wilt)
- Fully wilted crops only drop seeds
💧 Water & Hydration
- Farmland must stay within 4 blocks of water or it dries out
- Rain keeps farmland moist automatically
- Wilting only triggers when a crop is BOTH dark AND dry at the same time
🌍 Biome Modifiers
- Cold biomes (Snowy Plains, Ice Spikes, Frozen Peaks): 30% slower growth
- Desert and Badlands: farmland dries twice as fast
- Plains and Lush Caves: 10% growth speed bonus
🪴 Greenhouse System
- Enclose a farm in glass walls and ceiling to ignore all biome penalties
- Interior still needs a light source at night
🦴 Bonemeal Restrictions
- Bonemeal fails on dark or dry crops
- 50% fail chance in cold biomes
- Players get a clear message explaining why it failed
🎋 Sugar Cane & Bamboo
- Sugar cane indoors needs light level 11+ to grow past 2 blocks
- Bamboo in enclosed spaces is height-capped
