Turtle Scute Recipe
Turtle Scute Recipe lets players craft turtle scutes at a crafting table from an Armadillo Scute and a Green Dye, a route that vanilla does not offer.
What it does
A crafting recipe is added that turns one Armadillo Scute and one Green Dye into a turtle scute. The recipe is the only change the mod makes, and it is meant for players who want the item without hunting turtles. Server owners need the mod installed, because the server is the side that runs the recipe; clients can join without it. Builds are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and for the Data pack platform, covering 1.21 – 26.3 across 17 release versions. The code is not open source, and all rights are reserved.
