Light's Extended Potions
by LightLuchs
Light's Extended Potions adds a set of special potions brewed from block and item ingredients, with effects that reach past the usual brewing rules.
What it does
Brewing with a quartz block, an iron block, a gold apple, wool, a diamond block, an ender pearl, a netherite block, hay or a bone block yields a special potion that the base game does not offer. A netherite version is listed as expensive and strong. A golden wart can be combined with a thick potion, and nether wart with gold nuggets is used as a crafting recipe. Some effects can be used as brewing ingredients in their own right.
The potions cover a wide set of effects: extended reach to pick up items from farther away, sight through walls to view other mobs, zero gravity and controlled flight, healing for players nearby, damage to hostile mobs in the overworld around the drinker, saturation for food-heavy situations, and XP gained from brewing. The mod is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 that runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
Key features
Special brewing ingredients
Blocks such as quartz, iron, diamond, netherite and bone each brew a distinct special potion.
Movement and reach effects
Potions extend item pickup range, grant zero gravity and allow flying upward, changing how players move.
Area effects
Some potions heal players around the drinker or damage hostile mobs in the overworld nearby.
Experience from brewing
A brewed potion gives a set amount of experience, so brewing also advances the player's XP.
