Oculemon Tree Restoration

Description
Way back in one of the older versions of the game, I'm pretty sure you used to be able to harvest oculemons from eye trees. I'm also pretty sure they were called ocu*melons*, but that might be the Mandela effect talking.

Either way, imagine my surprise when I knocked down an eye tree in the release version of the game and discovered not the sour goodness of edible oculemons, but instead inedible "piles of eyes", suitable only as slightly gross construction material.

In my opinion, this made no sense, as the eye trees' eyes are clearly oculemon (melon?) size rather than eye-pile size. If you're ever going to farm eye trees (say, for the flesh strands the trunks drop), the eye piles will be more of an annoyance to be discarded. Plus, one would imagine a proper eye-*lemon* would grow on a tree, as lemons do, rather than on a vine on the ground as a eye-*melon* surely would.

In any case, this mod changes eye trees so that they drop edible-ocular-imitation-fruit once again. Or for the first time, I'm still not really sure.

I have 1162 hours in Starbound yet I hadn't realised that they were called Oculemons and not Ocumelons until now.

huh, never knew that they didn't drop Oculemons.
