GoldDash
by Joaoigor789
GoldDash adds a Particle Accelerator to Forge 1.20.1, where players transmute elements such as Mercury and Bismuth from gold nuggets.
What it does
Through the new Particle Accelerator, players turn gold nuggets into other elements. The mod introduces new resources and materials, including Mercury, Bismuth and Particle Energy, which the accelerator consumes and produces as part of its process. It blends modern science with a spirit-alchemy theme, so gold becomes a subject of experiment rather than only something gathered from the ground.
Progression is balanced around energy and special components, which the accelerator requires before it runs. Optional risks such as failed reactions and unstable outputs add challenge to each transmutation. Both sides need the mod: the server and every player run GoldDash on Forge for 1.20.1, and the package is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.

Use cases
Gold as a research goal
Players who want more from gold than digging it up can transmute it step by step, turning gathering into a scientific experiment.
Who it’s for: Players who enjoy crafting-driven progression and machines in a Forge 1.20.1 world, and server owners who want a slower gold economy with its own risks.
