Ars-Botania

by xypp

Ars-Botania links the mana systems of Ars Nouveau and Botania, so the two magic mods can share and move mana between their machines.

ForgeNeoForgeClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.20.1 – 1.21.1

What it does

Players who run Ars Nouveau and Botania together can have their mana systems work with each other. Botania's generating flowers and mana spreaders can bind to Ars Nouveau source jars, and Ars Nouveau mana relays move mana between mana pools. The bridge is built for mixed magic setups where neither system has to be replaced.

Ars Nouveau spellbooks can draw from configurable mana sources, and Botania items can use the Ars Nouveau player mana pool. Ars Nouveau mana recovery charges can refill Botania mana items, with each direction adjustable in the config. The mod is published for Forge and NeoForge, with files for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, and is open source under the MIT License. Ars Nouveau and Botania are both required, while Applied Botanics and Ars Énergistique are optional. Because it is a client and server mod, both the server and every player need it.

Key features

  1. Mana spreaders fire source jars

    Botania mana spreaders can shoot mana into Ars Nouveau source jars, feeding them from Botania's network.

  2. Relays between mana pools

    Ars Nouveau mana relays carry mana from one pool to another, including Botania mana pools.

  3. Mana tunnels into pools

    Mana tunnels can store mana directly in a mana pool, without a spreader in between.

  4. Shared spellbook mana

    Ars Nouveau spellbooks can use Botania mana items as configurable sources when casting.
