Cheaper Golden Apples
by AxelotlYT
Cheaper Golden Apples changes the crafting recipe so a golden apple costs 4 gold ingots instead of 8.
What it does
Golden apples are crafted from gold ingots in the vanilla recipe, and this mod halves the gold required, so a golden apple uses 4 gold ingots rather than 8. Players who need many of them for healing or enchanting spend less time gathering gold. The change is applied through the recipe, not by altering the apple itself.
The mod runs on the server, and players can join without installing it. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, with builds covering 1.20.1 – 1.21.4, and a data pack option is also available. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source.
