Copper Nugget
by Jaubert
Copper Nugget adds a copper nugget item that players craft from copper ingots and convert back, for a finer unit of copper in the inventory.
What it does
Copper ingots can be split into nine copper nuggets, and nine nuggets combine back into one ingot, following the same pattern as iron and gold nuggets. Smelting Lightning Rods also yields a copper nugget. The mod is a small addition to the vanilla world, meant for players who want precise control over how copper is stored and spent in crafting recipes. It runs on the client and on the server, so both sides need it, and it is released under the MIT License as open source. Files cover 1.21.4 only, with 1.0.1 as the latest Fabric build, published on 2025-01-06.
Key features
Ingot to nugget crafting
One copper ingot crafts into nine copper nuggets, and the reverse recipe turns nine nuggets into one ingot.
Lightning Rod smelting
Smelting a Lightning Rod produces a copper nugget, giving a second source besides ingot conversion.
Storage like iron and gold
Copper nuggets stack and store in the same way as iron and gold nuggets, so inventory handling feels familiar.
