Hex-Ars Linker
by YukkuriC
Hex-Ars Linker connects Ars Nouveau mana to Hex Casting media, so spells from one system can draw on the other.
What it does
The mod adds a set of three Mana Linker items that convert mana from a player's stores into media. A crafted right-click bind item carries a player's item and behaves like a Phial. Shift and right-click unbinds it. The higher-level linker converts at a better ratio, up to one shard per mana point. The default recipe uses the enchanting apparatus.
Pattern reading glyphs let an item, an entity, an item frame or the player read several patterns and cast the glyphs listed in them, which changes how spells are read and cast across both systems. The mod is modified for other mods such as KubeJS, and it supports HexParse for course and projectile-shooting spell examples.
Required dependencies are Ars Nouveau and Hex Casting, and both must be installed alongside Hex-Ars Linker. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge, across 10 release versions 1.19.2 – 1.21.1, under the MIT License, and the project is open source.
