functional recipes analysis
by XHYender
Functional recipes analysis changes how several vanilla recipes behave, so that some rare items can be obtained by crafting or smelting them instead of hunting for them.
What it does
Among the changes, trident, sponge, enchanted golden apple, bell and chainmail suit recipes are added, a wither rose can be crafted, and poisonous potatoes yield a yellow-green dye. Shulker shells, popped chorus fruit and nether wart blocks also gain alternative recipes, and blaze and breeze rods can be transformed with water or lava buckets. The stated aim is to make rare materials easier to collect in vanilla play.
The mod runs as a Fabric mod for 26.2 only, and the 1.0.0-alpha build was published on 2026-09-10. It is a client and server mod, so the server and every player need it. Dismantling is compatible with the Better Boats mod, and a toggle makes a 100% conversion of zombie villagers possible regardless of difficulty, which is off by default. The configuration menu is disabled. Functional recipes analysis is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0 license and is not open source.

What the author says
This mod adds more rational and functional recipes to the vanilla game, aiming to make rare stuffs' collecting easier (actually cancelling farms). (The dismantling mechanism is also compatible with the boats in the "better than boats" mod. But obviously that mod now have no fabric 26.2 support, so how did i make it?)
