This was originally inteded to just allow spectrum crystals to be used as media, but somewhat snowballed.

Current Features:

  • Barrier Gambit : Disables overcasting until the end of the hex
  • Sympathetic Extraction : Pass in an ItemEntity, ItemStack, or Mote, and break a block with all enchantments on the provided item.
  • Plasma Beam : Fire a beam of plasma from one location in ambit to another. Basically the old Ephemera plasma beam spell, but no longer limited to just wisps.
  • Clockwork Hive: A recipe system for crafting great scrolls. No recipes by default, the Hive doesn't have a default recipe either. Has a Hex Notebook entry toggleable by config.

An example recipe json for the Hive can be found at the linked source.

Interop
