What do you want done?
I suggest adding a "Manure" (Animal Waste) mechanic. Animals will drop waste if they are fed more than 3 times within 2–4 minutes, or occasionally at random intervals.
Why do you want something done?
This adds realism, responsibility, and a new layer of challenge to farming. Currently, livestock farming is too "clean" and simple. This mechanic teaches players to maintain their base and care for animals' living conditions.
How do you want something done?
– Cleaning & Timings: Manure must be cleaned up using a Shovel. If manure is not cleaned within 6–8 minutes, it transforms into "Stale Manure".
– Stale Manure: This stage is even more pungent. Animals will actively avoid it, moving away by at least 1 block. This creates a natural repel mechanic that players can use to guide or sort mobs without redstone.
– Hygiene & The "Dirty Hands" Effect: If a player collects manure by hand, they receive a "Dirty Hands" effect for 10–15 seconds. If the player eats any food while this effect is active, they receive a "Poison" effect. This encourages players to wash their hands in water.
– Fertilizer Bags: Players can craft a "Fertilizer Bag" using 3 manure items and a sack. The bag has 3 uses. When applied to a crop block, it provides a "Growth Boost" for 2–5 minutes, speeding up growth over time.
