PCraft Revorn: 3.0.0pre2 | Basaltmite Playtest
🕑 Added 2025-02-01 08:09:11 +0000 UTCHeya! This took me a little to wrap up, I had some unexpected issues. This update brings a new pred, some new items, and an expansion to the Silverfish's features. I'm quite overtired at the time of writing this so let me know if there's any glaring issues with the update.
If you want to get into the meat of the update, scroll down to the notes below, but I'll quickly summarize the new features here.
The Basaltmite is a long diverged variant of the Silverfish that are still freshly mutating in the overworld. They survive off of eating Basalt and little pieces of Ancient Debris in the stone. They are a defensive mob with a personal bubble, meaning they'll only attack if you get too close, but sneaking will allow you to get closer than normal. They can be fed all of the nether ores as well as Ancient Debris, which brings a special Netherite Plate growing feature.
The config has new options as well as the ability to set each pred's male chance individually. The Silverfish now drops Plates by chance when it gains weight which can craft a new armor set or brew resistance potions. Additionally, tamed Piglin Royal Knights should no longer try to attack Piglin Royals and get themselves killed in the process, and Piglin Royals have had bartering simplified, replacing attunded binding rings with just using gold ingots to signify giving up a mob as prey.
As for the full version notes:
New Pred: The Basaltmite
Spawns in Basalt Deltas in the Nether
Neutral/Defensive Mob with 5 aggro conditions, most only make it try to scare you off with a short chase
Being attacked
Entering its personal space without sneaking (3.4 block radius); 3 second aggro
Getting too close while sneaking (1.2 block radius); 5 second aggro
Mining Basalt while it can see (16 block radius); 10 second aggro
Trying to remove a grown plate without it being distracted by eating an ore or being under glowberry high; 5 second aggro
Natural Debris Armor
Can only be damaged by swords and pickaxes, swords must do at least 7 damage (normal diamond attack or crits only from lower swords)
Can be fed 5 blocks: Nether Quartz Ore, Nether Gold Ore, Gilded Blackstone, Basalt, Ancient Debris
Basalt does not reward anything, but it is good for distracting the Basaltmite for plate removal
Ancient Debris begins it growing a Basaltmite Plate in its chest
Basaltmite Plate
Will grow 3 after being fed Ancient Debris, takes 3.5 minutes to grow one and the timer on the next won't begin until the previous one has been removed
Plates are harvested by right clicking with a pickaxe, though the Basaltmite must either be under Glowberry High or currently distracted with eating an ore in order to remove the Plate, otherwise it won't work and the Basaltmite will aggro for 5 seconds
3.5% chance for them to spawn with a single plate already in their chest
2 can be crafted to make 1 Netherite Scrap, meaning it gives 50% more netherite as the Basaltmite will grow 3 plates
New Items
Silverfish Plate
Drops from Silverfish when they gain weight, 20% chance for first wg and 100% for second wg
Used as a brewing ingredient to make potions of Resistance
Silverfish Plating Armor
Armor value of iron, somewhat better durability
0.5 armor toughness, 5% kb resist, and 7.5% projectile damage reduction per piece
Crafted by upgrading chain armor with a Silverfish Plate in smithing table (uses leather in template slot)
Basaltmite Plate
Harvested from Basaltmites (read its section)
2 can be used to craft 1 Netherite Scrap
Basaltmite Plated Soles
Crafted from 2 Basaltmite Plates and 4 Weeping Vines
Goes in feet Curios slot, prevents damage from standing on magma blocks and campfires
Pred Guidebook
Currently Creative only and unfinished, shows the mod's preds and will give descriptions in the future
PCraft Config File Changes
Changed config section "(beta) Pred Mechanics" to "Male Pred Chances"
Changed "malePredChance" variable to "globalMalePredChance", which will now be an automatic override for the new per-pred options
Added malePredChance variants for each pred with gendered variants, allowing you to make the chance differ for each species if you'd like. These will only take effect if "globalMalePredChance" is set to -1
"piglinRoyalKnightMalePredChance", "piglinRoyalMalePredChance", "silverfishMalePredChance", "basaltmiteMalePredChance"
Added new "Pred Mechanics" section
Includes "maxSilverfishFullness", "silverfishFullnessGained", "maxBasaltmiteFullness", "basaltmiteFullnessGained", "basaltmiteScaleGenerationRate", and "basaltmiteScaleSpawnChance"
Silverfish
Updated the Silverfish's stomach textures to better match the rest of the model
Will now target Villagers, Pillagers, Vindicators, and Witches if not under the glowberry high effect
Drops a Silverfish Scale with a 20% chance at first WG and with a 100% chance at 2nd WG
Silverfish gains 10 extra max fullness with each WG
Can now be fed without glowberry high if the player is in creative mode
Piglin Royal
Piglin Royals will now no longer give the player Attunded Binding Rings
Removed all function of Attuned Binding Rings
Piglin Royal Bartering is now done by right clicking with a gold ingot, cutting out the middleman
Piglin Royal Knight
Piglin Royal Knights will now avoid attacking a Piglin Royal (even if tamed), and in the rare case they are somehow able to attack a Royal, they should not be able to do any damage.

Mystic Summoner
Yes, go into the config and set the globalMalePredChance variable to 0
