Optional Equivalence
by kurrycat
Optional Equivalence is a Forge utility for 1.12.2 that controls how items in ProjectE's transmutation system behave, letting servers lock items against change.
What it does
Stabilized items are protected from being transmuted by accident. A stabilization tape can be crafted together with an EMC item to apply the protection, and destabilization scissors reverse it when the protection is no longer wanted. The mod also adds a config option that gives NBT tags to stabilized items so the protection is kept permanently, and the whole stabilization feature can be disabled for servers that only want the NBT behaviour. Installation requires MixinBooter, and the mod runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it.
Key features
Stabilized EMC items
Stabilized items cannot be transmuted by accident, which protects valuable items from being consumed.
Stabilization tape and scissors
The tape stabilizes an item when crafted with it, and destabilization scissors undo the protection.
Permanent NBT tags
A config option adds NBT tags to stabilized items so the protection stays on them, and the feature can be turned off entirely.
