Reductive
by tastytrash
Reductive adds utility tools and crafting components for Fabric that refine vanilla Minecraft materials into smaller parts, with drills, chainsaws and tiered fishing rods built from them.
What it does
Crafting components are split into refined materials, such as drill tips and drill bodies, chainsaw blades and chainsaw bodies, copper coils, redstone processors and rods in copper, iron, gold, diamond and netherite tiers. Combining these parts gives tools that do more than their vanilla counterparts. A handheld drill mines faster than a wooden pickaxe or shovel, an upgraded drill breaks a 3x3 area, and a chainsaw cuts wood and other organic blocks more efficiently, breaking several wood blocks at once.
Fishing gets its own branch. Tiered fishing rods in copper, iron, gold, diamond and netherite can catch several items per cast, a fishing net is available as a component, and special baits change the fishing loot table. A treasure bait increases the drops from the treasure loot table. Lesser and greater spawn cores, spawn eggs and a lapis infused bottle round out the set of items for players who want to reduce repetitive farming work.
Reductive is published for Fabric only, for game version 26.2, and requires Fabric API. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. The code is open source under the MIT License.
