⚙️ Configuration

All values are fully configurable via ferventes_butcher_knife-common.toml:

[damage]
    harvestDamage = 10.0        # Damage dealt per harvest (10.0 = 5 hearts)
    weaponDamage = 6.0           # Base attack damage (for reference)

[durability]
    maxDurability = 250          # Total tool durability
    harvestDurabilityCost = 20   # Durability used per harvest

[cooldown]
    harvestCooldownTicks = 60    # Cooldown after harvest (60 = 3 seconds)

[particles]
    particleCount = 20           # Blood particles spawned per harvest

? Gameplay Tips

? Farming Strategy

1. Build an animal pen with 12+ animals (one full knife worth)
2. Use Fire Aspect to get cooked meat directly
3. Apply Looting III for maximum meat yields
4. Keep a backup knife in your inventory

⚔️ Combat vs Harvest

• Combat: Lower damage (6.0) but no durability penalty per hit
• Harvest: High damage (10.0) but costs 20 durability per use
• Strategy: Use combat for cleanup, harvest for efficient farming

? Looting Optimization

Looting III can drop up to 5-7 meat per harvest from cows/pigs!

• Standard drop: 1-3 meat
• Looting I: 2-4 meat
• Looting II: 3-5 meat
• Looting III: 4-7 meat
