This mod gives you a new experience where your player character don't knows everything at once, so you need to research to learn new stuffs.

With this mod, blocks and items are prevented to be used when you don't have knowledge to use it, same as crafting the item or crafting with the item. To use the item you first need to know how it works, i mean, your player character needs knowledge about that item, so you need to craft this:

Research Table

This is a research table, with it you research everything you need to craft or use whatever you want, when you right click it you will open this:

Research Table GUI

There you place the items in their correct places, but you cannot research without paper and ink and quill, so you need to craft this:

Ink and Quill

Empty Ink and Quill

Ink and Quill Refill

With this and papper you are ready to research, for example let's pretend i wanna craft diamond armor and tools. But you don't have knowledge for jewelry, so you need to research jewelry

Research

Now that i researched i discovered a new knowledge, all i need to do is to right click with the parchment, and...

Research pop up

Now i know jewelry, which means i can craft diamond tools and armor

Note: This mod is made for modpack developers, similar to kubeJS, so it won't locks everything once for all, you need to create a datapack, loot table and stuff to make all the research engine
