In World Recipes
by benbenlaw
In World Recipes lets a block be converted into another block, and an item into a different item, when a player uses it in the world.
What it does
The mod adds in-world recipes: using a held item on a block can transform that block, and using a block on an item can convert the item into another. Fluids can also be thrown to trigger a transformation. Recipes are defined by the mod and can be extended through data files.
Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Versions 1.21, 1.21.1, 26.1, 26.1.1 and 26.1.2 are covered, with 2.6.1 for 26.1.2 as the latest NeoForge file. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source. Just Enough Items (JEI) is an optional dependency that displays the recipes.
Key features
Block to block conversion
A held item used on a block can change that block into a different block.
Item to item conversion
A block used on a held item can convert that item into another item.
Fluid throw recipes
Throwing a fluid can start a transformation, adding a recipe type beyond item use.
