Recycle Ladder

by SushiWaUmai

Recycle Ladder is a server-required datapack-style mod that lets players trade ladders back into sticks through a recycling recipe.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalAll rights reserved1.21 – 1.21.8

What it does

Ladders can be turned back into sticks, so unused ladders are not lost. The change is delivered as a datapack for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, covering 1.21 – 1.21.8. Only the server needs it installed, so players can join without the mod, while clients may still add it.

Installing it means copying the datapack archive into the world's datapacks folder, then running the reload command in game. The author describes this for Windows saves. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.

Key features

  1. Ladders to sticks

    A recipe converts a ladder back into two sticks, returning material from ladders that are no longer needed.

  2. Datapack delivery

    The recipe ships as a datapack archive placed in the world's datapacks folder, without a separate mod loader setup.

  3. Reload command

    Running the reload command in game applies the new datapack to an existing world without restarting it.
