Botanic Additions
by Zeith
Botanic Additions extends Botania with a Mana Tesseract, a Terra Catalyst, an Elven Altar and a Dreaming Mana Pool for players who use Botania's mana system.
What it does
The mod adds features to Botania: a Mana Tesseract moves mana over long distances through dimensions, and a Terra Catalyst opens new recipes. Blocks such as the Elven Altar and the Dreaming Mana Pool extend the mana network, and the pool holds twice the mana of a normal pool. Players can also trade living rock and wood through the elven gateway to get dreamwood and other materials, and Mana Lapis Block and Elven Lapis Block serve as decorative materials. Spark attachments can be used while sneaking.
The mod requires Botania and HammerLib, both of which must be installed next to Botanic Additions. Client and server: the server and every player need the mod. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge, across game versions 1.12.2, 1.19.2 and 1.20.1, and the mod is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source. Source code and an issue tracker are publicly linked.

Use cases
Long-distance mana networks
