It should be. How else would the modmaker allow others to make add-ons? BlockCrops should work with the apples' tri-stage growth. Ok, I'll try that.

I have the mod that uses it... to be honest, I was mostly thinking about getting it (somehow) and transferring it over. Then all I needed was the apple growth (as this tree simply had the berries appear). there are three problems, which are: Actually accessing the mod file... no idea how to do that Apple growth... slightly clueless Modeling the apples, which happens to be my biggest weakness

My main problem is that I understand Java, just not applying it to Minecraft. I want to have it so every now and then, an apple or two will form similarly to the berries of the tree pictured below (this tree is from the Pokecube mod). While you can try to pick them immediately (via RMB), you have increasingly lower chances to get an apple than if you were to wait. It's that setup that I feel like I'm going to struggle with. The tree itself, notice the berries hanging from it?: Right-clicking one of these berries would drop one. This is mostly what I'm trying to replicate with the exception being that my apple trees would have 3 growth stages with chances of getting an apple increasing each stage (0% for the 1st stage, 50% for the 2nd, 100% 3rd). It would (similarly to this tree) also grow similarly to a crop until it finishes growing (at which point, it becomes a tree).

Pretty much the portion with the apples in the trees, I'm going to send an example of a tree that I'm using as a sort of reference soon, it's going to be implementing it as code that is going to be difficult, the rest shouldn't be too hard for me to do.

But still, how do I do it (as hands on as possible, as it's the approach I use to learn)?

Personally, I believe it would be better if there is a site link for this sort of thing.

I'm trying to make a mod about apple trees. the idea started when I was looking for a lightweight mod that adds apple trees. There was only one good mod... but it was 1.11, a few updates too old. I have had a decent amount of experience with Java, not great but still decent; with little experience modding Minecraft. I also want to code it myself and know how to do it again, something simple copy/pasting can't do. I'm also trying to follow the rules I set for myself as outlined. If anyone can help, thank you. The only real problems I feel like I'm going to have are with the apples themselves (that hang from the bottommost layer of leaves and can be picked with a right-click with varying success rates, again, as outlined in the rules)
