StringsNowCraftable

by Vilno

StringsNowCraftable lets players craft string from wool at a stonecutter, so spiders are no longer the only source of string.

ForgeClient and serverzlib License1.20.1

What it does

The mod adds a recipe that turns extra wool into string at the stonecutter. Spiders are the usual source of string, and sheep are the only dependable source of wool, so the recipe covers strings needed for bows, traps and other early-game items. Installation covers the server and each player's game. Files are published for Forge only, for Minecraft 1.20.1, with 1.0.0 as the latest file.

  2. Early-game string supply

    Strings for bows and traps come from wool, which sheep reliably provide during the early game.
