Yes, but I'm still experimenting with GitHub.

Yeah, I though it is not needed because there are no depends for this mod.

To craft using default materials, like stone and cobble and wood, I am pretty sure you need a depends.txt saying that it depends on default to craft things.

Ok, sorry, i haven't knew. Updated.

It's alright. If this is your first mod, then it is okay to make a few mistakes.

You don't need a depends.txt to use external items in craft recipes, but it is recommended if it is from another mod.

What about using default images?

You depend if you:

1) require that mod to load first (if you use a function or override features in that mod)
2) require it to be installed, but doesnt need to load first

Craft recipe ingredients is #2 as they don't need to be loaded first, but you want to make sure the mod is never run without them. Textures is also #2.

Generally you should support as many ingredients as possible, like in my food mod, by using soft depends or no depends.

hmm are soft depends the one with
"?[modname]"?

Modname?

The ? comes after the mod name

ok,thanks

How about more variety in terms of chairs and tables? Maybe you could make a set for every cubic node in the base game (including mese and diamond?)

Here are some simple chairs if you want to add them to your mod. chairs.zip



EDIT - I forgot to add credit for the sitting script. I grabbed the script from lrfurn by thefamilygrog66. If you use it please add the credit.

I think this mod can be really cool

I have an idea:

make a modpack with chairs.mod and tables.mod
