Modern Chickens v2.0.12

New

Mega Chickens

• Rare Mega Chickens now appear in biomes where vanilla chickens spawn.
• Tame them with chicken food, saddle them, ride them, and open their inventory.
• Equip up to two chests for expanded storage.
• Added a Mega Chicken spawn egg and dedicated GUI.
• Chicken Catchers can preserve tamed Mega Chickens, including their appearance, equipment, stats, and cargo.
• When a Mega Chicken dies, it drops as a recoverable item. Use a Nether Star to reactivate it before placing it again.
• Owners can use a perfect 10/10/10 chicken item to change a Mega Chicken’s appearance.
• Added refreshed normal and Mega Chicken textures.

Mekanism integration

• Added optional real Mekanism radiation support.
• Radioactive chicken products, dropped items, and supported machine contents can now expose players and the surrounding world to radiation.
• Living radioactive chickens show localized radiation effects without spreading atmospheric radiation.
• Chemical chickens are now generated automatically for discovered Mekanism chemicals, including radioactive chemicals.

Configuration

• Added an in-game configuration editor with search, scrolling, validation, and save support.
• Edit both general settings and individual chicken settings directly from the mod configuration screen.
• Configuration changes apply after restarting the game.

Changes and fixes

• Chicken output can now scale with Gain, enabled by default:
  • Gain 1–10 produces 1, 3, 6, 10, 16, 23, 31, 41, 52, or 64 items.
• Colored, liquid, chemical, and gas eggs now stack to 64.
• Reduced natural Modern Chicken spawn weight so wild populations compete more naturally with vanilla creatures.
• Natural flocks are limited to 1–2 chickens, including when older configs or datapack overrides request larger groups.
• Custom chicken item textures now render correctly.
• Fixed the Vanilla Chicken item texture and localization.
• Refreshed textures for 26 chicken types and their Mega Chicken variants.
