🎯 Tips & Tricks
Make sure BepInEx is installed correctly and the mod file goes into the BepInEx/plugins folder.
Check the mod's page for any plant lists—some plants might be rare or require specific biomes.
If eggs aren't hatching, double-check that the required plants are fully grown, not just planted.
