Welcome to "Insect and Arachnids", a mod that adds insects into the game!
Currently there are only 2 insects: Mantises and Monarch Butterflies.
But soon there will be a lot more insects and arachnids!
This mod also adds a new feature: Essence Extraction!
With the essence extractor, you can get powers by capturing butterflies!
Currently, the only essence is the Monarch Essence, that gives you Strenght for 2 minutes!
How do you obtain a butterfly? Well, you need to craft a bug net and find a butterfly egg! (Butterfly eggs can be found in trees on the forest and plain biomes)
Once you break a butterfly egg, you will get a random caterpillar (Due to the Monarch butterfly being the only one currently in the mod, you can only get the Monarch Butterfly). You have to put the caterpilar in a block and wait 5 minutes, after 5 minutes it will become a cocoon and if you break the cocoon a Monarch butterfly will spawn, which you can catch by killing with a bug net in hand.
Using JEI for the recipes is recommened, but in the future I will add some in-game guides.
