Codex
by IMB11
Codex is a Satisfactory-inspired reference screen for Fabric that shows item descriptions and quick calculations in one place.
What it does
Codex lets a player look up information about items and run quick calculations from a single screen styled after the codex in Satisfactory. Item descriptions come from data sources chosen during the setup screen, which opens on the first launch after the mod is installed. The mod is a proof of concept from its author, and the author describes it as actively developed.
The mod is aimed at technical players who want to work out things such as shulker box capacity or redstone tick math. Codex is more focused on the data side of items than Roughly Enough Items or Too Many Items, and the author says it would not replace either of them. Fabric API is required, and the mod is client-side only, so a server does not need it and players do not need it on a server to join.
Key features
Satisfactory-style codex
A codex screen with detailed descriptions for items, laid out in the style of the Satisfactory game.
Quick math parser
Arithmetic expressions can be evaluated quickly, with string concatenation and boolean evaluation supported.
Unit conversions
Built-in conversions cover stacks in shulkers and items in stacks, as well as seconds in ticks and ticks in seconds.
Quick search
A search bar finds items fast, and clicking a search result opens that item's codex page.
Scrolling in the search list
The scroll wheel still works when the pointer is dragged outside the list, so long results stay simple to browse.
