Modularity Modularity

The project features a convenient module system. If you do not need certain recipes or entire crafting categories, you can easily remove them by simply deleting the corresponding folder from the archive.

Structure Structure

Folder Structure:

The internal structure is identical for both the recipes folder (recipe) and the conditions for unlocking them in the recipe book (advancement/recipes). The root folders are categorized by the method of item creation:

  • crafting — Crafting Table Crafting Table and the inventory crafting grid;
  • smelting — Furnace Furnace;
  • blasting — Blast Furnace Blast Furnace;
  • stonecutting — Stonecutter Stonecutter;
  • smithing_transform — Smithing Table Smithing Table.

Inside these folders, files are divided into logical categories. For example, the crafting/wood_types/acacia folder contains all alternative crafts using Acacia Planks Acacia Planks and Acacia Log Acacia Logs.

File Naming Convention:

All file names follow a logical pattern: [what_item_is_crafted]_[from_what_material].json.

For example, the path data/ccore/recipe/crafting/utility/chest_logs.json means crafting a Chest Chest directly from Log Logs.

Stonecutter Instructions for removing modules (using the stonecutter as an example)

If you want to completely disable all new recipes for the Stonecutter Stonecutter, follow these steps:

  1. Open the .jar or .zip file of the datapack using any archiver (e.g., 7-Zip or WinRAR).
  2. Navigate to the path data/ccore/recipe/stonecutting and delete the stonecutting folder.
  3. Navigate to the path data/ccore/advancement/recipes/stonecutting and delete the stonecutting folder as well (this will prevent error logs from appearing in the server console).
  4. Run the /reload command in-game or restart the server to apply the changes.
