[3.1.0+1.20.1] - 2026.10.02

This update completes some partially implemented features related to diet suite switching, allows diet gain at full hunger, and fixes multiplayer syncing with custom food values enabled.

Added

• Diet suites can now be switched in-game
  • /diet suite <player> <suite> switches the player to another suite
  • /diet suite <player> shows a player's current suite
  • Food groups in both suites keep their values, while any new groups start at their default_value
  • A player's suite is now saved with the rest of their diet data and persists through death and reloads
  • If a suite cannot be loaded, players are moved back to the default suite
  • The DietApi methods getSuite, setSuite, and getSuites are now functional, so other mods can read and change a player's suite
  • Tooltips and eaten food only apply to groups in the selected suite
• New server config options:
  • defaultSuite lets the default suite be changed to something other than builtin by default
  • requireHungerGain restores the previous behavior where food only increases diet values if it also increases the player's hunger
• Added Spanish translation, thanks to elbuda

Changed

• Foods can now increase diet values even if they don't increase hunger (meaning foods like golden apples and chorus fruit can continuously increase diet values)
• The default diet suite now gives Hunger III instead of Hunger IV at high sugars

Fixed

• Fixed food value syncing on multiplayer servers, tooltips on the client should now show the right food values.
• Fixed food_values files loading in an arbitrary order, they now load like vanilla tags
  • First, the version of a file from all datapacks is combined in the datapacks' order
  • replace will now discard only lower priority versions of the same file
  • Values from higher priority datapacks override lower ones
  • Errored files are now skipped earlier to avoid possibly overriding other files
• Fixed some foods having the wrong food_values
  • Farmer's Delight cabbage
  • Farmer's Delight minced beef
• Fixed the wrong error message appearing for an invalid status effect
