craftable netherite upgrade

by crazychkn37

Netherite upgrade trim is a NeoForge recipe change: the netherite smithing step becomes simpler and craftable in survival, with an alternative path that involves risk.

NeoForgeServer-side onlyAll rights reserved1.21.4

What it does

Netherite upgrade trim can be crafted, so a player no longer has to find it in a bastion chest before the upgrade can be made. The mod keeps the trim recipe in the same place while adding a craftable route, and it is built for NeoForge 1.21.4 only. It is set as server-side only, so the server runs it alone and players join without installing anything. The code is All rights reserved, and the mod is not open source.

Key features

  1. Craftable upgrade trim

    The netherite upgrade trim can be made from a crafting recipe rather than found only in bastion loot.

  2. Simpler smithing

    Netherite smithing is simplified so the upgrade step takes fewer inputs and is easier to follow.

  3. Risky alternative route

    The added path carries a hardcore-style risk, so a player may choose it instead of searching a bastion.
