Alchemia: Potion Crafting

Potions are made by placing ingredients on a fixed path and guiding the potion icon across a map. The effect a potion applies depends on how close the icon lands to the centre of an effect area on that map. Each world gets its own map, so the same ingredients can lead to different results from one save to another.

Crafting starts with a vanilla cauldron placed on a lit campfire, which turns into an Alchemical Cauldron. Breaking it returns the cauldron and the campfire. An Alchemist's Guide is crafted with a book and records the potions made, the effects discovered and the ingredients used along each path.

The mod is loosely modeled on the Potion Craft alchemy simulator and is a stripped-down rebuild of that style. The server and every player need the mod installed. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge across the 1.18.2 – 26.3 range, and the code is released under All rights reserved, although public source code links exist.
