Upgrader items
by EXEcheINZ
With the Upgrader item, a player drops an item into a wheel slot, picks a more valuable target from a list, and spins for a chance to get it.
What it does
Right-clicking the Upgrader opens a wheel. Pressing the button sets a marker moving, and a stop inside the gold section turns the item into the chosen target. Any other stop destroys the original item.
Each item's value is derived by walking its recipes, covering crafting, smelting, blasting, smoking, campfire cooking, stonecutting and the smithing table, down to raw materials. Items with no recipe fall back to a rarity-based estimate. Spawn eggs, potions and enchanted books are excluded because their worth lies in NBT data. The mod is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge under All rights reserved, and is not open source. Client and server both need it, and the roll is made on the server so the outcome cannot be altered from the client.
Key features
Automatic item pricing
Modded items are priced from their recipes, so most additions gain a value without a compatibility patch.
Damage-adjusted value
A damaged tool is valued lower in proportion to the durability it has left.
Weighted success chance
The chance is 0.9 times the ratio of the input value to the target value, limited to between 0.1% and 90%.
Crafted upgrader
The Upgrader is made from gold, diamonds and an anvil, all standard crafting materials.
Price configuration
Options named valueOverrides, globalValueMultiplier and valueMultipliers set prices for single items or scale all values.

Use cases
Trading items for upgrades
A player can risk a lower-value item for a chance at a higher-value one, such as an iron tool for a diamond tool.
Server minigames
Server owners can run the upgrade wheel as a gamble in multiplayer, since the server handles every roll.
Who it’s for: Players who want a chance-based way to turn one item into another, and server owners who want a gambling-style minigame built on item values.

What the author says
Upgrader adds a single item: the Upgrader. Right-click it to open the wheel. Drop an item into the left slot, pick what you want out of the list on the right, and the mod works out your odds. Hit the button and a marker runs around the wheel — if it stops inside the gold zone, your item becomes the one you asked for…
