Template craft

by MoCurizZzx

Template Craft changes smithing templates on NeoForge so that they lose durability with each use instead of being consumed after a single use.

What it does

Smithing templates in Template Craft are kept after each application, and their durability drops with every use until they run out. Templates from other sources can be used with the system when their tags line up with what it expects. The mod is published for NeoForge 1.21.1 only, and both the server and every player need it, since it changes how the templates behave on both sides. It is released under the MIT License, but it is not open source. Its author notes that the mod is still being tested with AI-assisted development and that some obvious bugs remain, though none are expected to affect core gameplay.

Key features

  1. Reusable templates

    Templates stay in the inventory after use, so a single template can be applied repeatedly before it wears out.

  2. Durability per use

    Each application reduces the template's durability, which turns a one-time item into a limited-use one.

  3. Tag-based compatibility

    Templates from other mods work with the system when their tags match the expected ones.

What the author says

Template Craft This mod is created by someone who isn't fond of templates, yet doesn't fully oppose them either. It adds durability to templates, so they are no longer consumed in one use—instead, their durability depletes upon use. It's compatible with other templates as long as their tags match.
