Create: Refabricated Recipes

# Create: Refabricated Recipes A Fabric mod that adds useful, balanced, and scientifically plausible recipes for [Create Fly](https://modrinth.com/mod/create-fly) (the modern Fabric port of Create). ## About This mod adds 23 new recipes for [Create Fly](https://modrinth.com/mod/create-fly), including crushing, compacting, bulk haunting, and mixing recipes. Most recipes are based on scientifically plausible processes and can be individually toggled on/off via a config file. This is my first mod! And I am no CS major or anything like that, just enough knowledge to fall to the rabbit hole of Minecraft modding. I will go out of my way to tell that most of the Java code for setting the config file was from various AI bots. I really do not know a thing about Java, and Minecraft modding in extension, at the time of writing. I only know Python and JSON from a basic CS course and that's it. Anyway, feedback and suggestions are of course welcome (as long as I am not lazy enough haha). ## Why another recipe mod? Because I want to. Jokes aside, [Create Fly](https://modrinth.com/mod/create-fly) does not have much addons to it (at all), so I went out of my cave and made one. Initially made for myself only as a datapack, since I enjoyed playing Create with addons on NeoForge. I wanted to automate everything in my world, and vanilla Create offers little for those who like hoarding stuff late game. The creation of the recipes are heavily inspired by [Create: Ultimate Factory](https://modrinth.com/mod/create-ultimate-factory) and my knowledge on various scientific fields. I'm a nerd, yes. ## Features - Adds twenty-three (23) balanced and sensible recipes to enable automation of almost everything late game (post-Brass Age) with resource hoarders and builders in mind - Some recipes closely drew inspiration from real geology, chemistry, and physics - Toggleable recipes via a (very basic) JSON config file - Currently only available on Fabric 26.1.2 and 26.2 ### Future Plans - I might tweak some recipes to rebalance it, or even add a custom block/item to expand my catalyst idea (depends if I survive fabric modding 101 and if I have the time) - ~~I'm considering making it available for 26.2, and incorporate cinnabar and sulfur in updated/new recipes, e.g. renewable gunpowder~~ - An alternative blaze burner fuel source that can superheat it, made from anthracite (a rare form of coal) and logs AKA Presto Logs. A Back to the Future reference, yes. Recipes can be viewed via [JEI](https://modrinth.com/mod/jei) and its siblings. ## Recipes **1. Stone Generators** - Adds three (3) stone generators through heated compacting recipes to allow high throughput farms for late game without sacrificing FPS to drills and minecart/stationary contraption block breakers - Only available post-Brass Age and netherite to not break the game balance - Inspired from seed catalysts use in nanomaterials and industrial chemistry processes **2. Renewable Gunpowder** - Drawn from the recipe for black powder, using a heated mixing recipe - Cinder flour acts as the source of potassium nitrate (saltpeter) and sulfur. Charcoal is charcoal, and sugar is there for extra oomph (I know because I tried ;>). - Chucks out 80% of input items to simulate impurities **3. Renewable Redstone and Lapis Lazuli** - Redstone mimics red iron oxide (hematite), while Lapis Lazuli mimics lazurite, needing iron sulfides (iron + cinder flour), and calcium carbonate (calcite) - Both are heated mixing recipes **4. Renewable Calcite** - Limestone and Calcite are mostly made up of calcium carbonate, the former is a rock while the latter is a mineral that is purer in form - Uses a non-heated mixing recipe **5. Renewable Diamonds** - My take on the renewable diamonds recipe guarantees a diamond for every press at the cost of superheating (to simulate immense heat and pressure to form diamonds irl) **6. Cheaper Rose Quartz** - Not really chemically accurate, but simulates heat and pressure to form crystals - Essentially a 9x more efficient recipe of rose quartz using a superheated compacting recipe **7. Tuff and Deepslate** - Analogous to the andesite recipe, but uses cobblestone - Cobbled Deepslate for those lazy enough to mine it **8. Renewable Netherite** - Highly debatable. Netherite scraps only drop 0.3% of the time - Crushing recipe for nether bricks, inspired from **Create: Ultimate Factory** **9. Renewable Wither Rose** - Haunting recipe for Rose Bushes giving Wither Roses 40% of the time - No more Wither-based farms **10. Renewable Wither Skeleton Skull** - Also highly debatable. Skulls drop 0.1% of the time by crushing scorchia - Designed to be paired with the renewable wither rose to suppply black dye to converting scoria to scorchia (so technically wither roses gave rise to wither skeleton skulls) **11. Renewable Coal** - A classic charcoal bulk haunting recipe **12. Renewable Netherrack** - Sourced from bulk haunting basalt. Designed to be paired with renewable netherite scraps - Also inspired by **Create: Ultimate Factory** **13. Renewable Create Stones** - Non-heated mixing recipes for veridium, asurine, ochrum, and crimsite - Made for builders looking to hoard these for their decorative blocks - Added 'dupe tax' to make crushing these back to ores and nuggets futile while being available early game **14. Renewable Glowstone Dust** - Designed to be paired with renewable lapis lazuli, making use of glow berries **15. Renewable Leather** - Makes use of otherwise rubbish rotten flesh - Inspired from real life processing of leather, where slaked lime is used to wash the hide (well Calcite is lime, not slaked lime but yeah fair enough) - 1:1 conversion gated by a heated mixing recipe **16. Bulk Polishing of Rose Quartz** - I made do with this since **Create: Enchantment Industry** does this already using the mechanical grindstone - Inspired by real life rock tumbling processes to grind and polish raw gems and rocks - Uses sand and gravel as media, and gated by the use of powdered obsidian (as emery, even if obsidian is mostly silicon dioxide and not aluminum but yeah) - First recipe I thought of incorporating powdered obsidian since its only use is for trains
