Minecraft Rebalance

Major and minor tweaks to Minecraft's recipes, loot tables and item data with progression as a high priority. This low-code Forge 1.20.1 mod is designed for its parent modpack. It does not run outside its pack due to certain dependencies in the pack.

To compile, use:

./gradlew build

Remember to change the JDK version to a compatible version, ie.:

-Dorg.gradle.java.home=/usr/lib/jvm/java-21-openjdk

The below changes represent what is in the modpack itself.

Vanilla changes

• Removes wooden tools, there is now only a wooden paxel
• Replaces stone tools with copper
• Significantly buffs gold to between iron and diamond, buffs diamond and netherite to suit
• Removes diamond from the overworld and adds magma cream to diamond equipment recipes
• Pushes redstone to massive veins at the very bottom of the world (so we could increase gold/iron/lapis rates)
• Replaces diamonds in jukeboxes and enchanting tables with amethyst
• Diamonds now generate in the nether roof, in fortresses and in boulders in the basalt delta
• Netherite has been moved to the End and its damage and mining speed has been buffed to actually mean something
• Netherite has been renamed to Dendrite in accordance with its new position
• Changes every single lootpool to stop players skipping tiers so easily and reward them more for progression
• Adds a 4:1 conversion between hide and leather and makes leather armour craftable from hide
• Obsidian no longer takes until the end of time to mine
• Enchanting reworked (see Enchancement)
• Added a modular tool system to replace wooden paxels (see TC/Tetras changes below)
• Tweaked worldgen for all three dimensions
• (In progress) Edited villager trades to be focused on improving equipment found elsewhere
• (In progress) Edited food to encourage dedicated sources of meat instead of just taking sheep/cows forever

Tinker's Construct and Tetra

• Disables all TC tools and related molds (except battlesigns because funny)
• Disables all slimelands (makes skyslime craftable from slime and a diamond)
• Disables cinderslime (we couldn't find a good place for it in the new progression)
• Adds every remaining Tinker's Construct material to Tetra
• Changes blackstone to cobalt in the Tetra hammer line

To-Do

• Remove the experience cost of enchanting with a table (not anvil)
• Start ancient debris generating in the End
• Add a new music disc, sure, why not
• Replace the obsidian hammer with something (we have not decided what)
• New texture for the enchanting table
• Delete slimewood and nahuatl
• Make TC smelteries an opt-in config due to vanilla requirements
• Make crops grow ~50% faster
