Diamond Nuggets
For Forge and Fabric (1.16/1.17/1.18/1.19)
The Fabric version of this mod requires: Fabric API
The Forge version of this mod is marked as beta due to CurseForge limitations.
Diamonds are the main item involved in trading on many servers.
But what if you wanted to sell something that cost less than a Diamond?
This mod is for you! You can now use Diamond Nuggets to trade instead!
Diamond Nuggets allow a more precise value for your items.
Crafting and Obtaining
Just as you would expect, one Diamond can be crafted into 9 Diamond Nuggets.
9 Diamond Nuggets can be crafted into one Diamond.
Diamond Armor and Tools can be smelted in blast furnaces into Diamond Nuggets. (v1.3+)
Feel free to use this in your mod pack, a link to this page is not required but would be appreciated.
thank you for making this.
with this mod it is fully possible to make a diamond farm, using an raid farm for emeralds and trading with villagers for diamond armor/tools into diamond nuggets and crafting them into diamonds
Could it be possible for you to let diamond nuggets repair diamond stuff for small amounts?
In reply to cymophic:
Thanks for the suggestion! This will be implemented in the next version.
In reply to cymophic:
love this! also, when mining diamond ore, will this mean the ore can be dropped as a nugget before being crafted into a diamond? similar to how gold ore is mined in the nether?
In reply to vybexeye:
yoo im looking for a mod that make ores drop nuggets :(
i find ores in minecraft are too easy to get :P
In reply to vybexeye:
As of now, it does not drop nuggets.
I didn't want to modify vanilla behaviour, so I didn't add anything additional.
You should be able to get the ore to drop nuggets with a custom loot table.
What if you are single player? Maybe Diamond Nuggets could also add a little bonus durability, onetime only, on anything in an anvil?
In reply to snommersnommers:
The anvil function certainly sounds cool!
Would it be interesting if these nuggets could be found in loot chests?
In reply to SamDev7:
Okay!
Thank you so much for the support!
The 1.19 version is now available on both Forge and Fabric.
I need to say, that yesterday I was looking for hours for a mod that let me obtain diamonds on skyblock 1.18, and today you upload this piece of art, I just need to thank god and you for this.
CAN YOU Add more nugget ? For example emerald, flint_shard, obsidian_shard.....
Wouldn't this destroy economy because you can just farm diamonds from Villagers.
In reply to skel2007:
A diamond sword can be as low as 13 emeralds. To get one diamond you would then need 117 emeralds. This isn't too overpowered in my opinion. You'll need tons of villagers to make a profit with sticks for example. I probably should add a way to disable the smelting however. As of now, modpack owners can overwrite the recipe with a datapack.
In reply to SamL_2020:
A diamond hoe by default costs 4 emeralds, and that's not even considering that all the diamond tools and armor sold by villagers can usually be brought down to 1 emerald by curing them once. This, combined with the fact that emeralds are by far the easiest resource to farm, means that this mod is super overpowered for easily getting unlimited diamonds.
In reply to fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiish:
That is true, I forgot about the hoe. So would increasing the smelting time be a way to un-overpower it? For example, increase the blasting time to 4 minutes? Making it harder to smelt?
Another option is to add a config for the recipe.
In reply to SamL_2020:
I don't think increasing the smelting time would help, because someone using it to farm diamonds would probably build a super smelter, and increasing the smelting time would only make them build a bigger super smelter, so adding a config for the recipe is probably a better solution.
In reply to fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiish:
That'll be coming in the next version, which should not take too long.
1.18 version coming soon!!
