Description
Just Enough Markers (JEM)
Enhance JEI with visual markers for modified recipes.
Just Enough Markers (JEM) is a lightweight NeoForge mod that helps modpack creators and technical players quickly identify recipe changes made by KubeJS or other modifications.
🌟 Key Features
- Highlight recipe changes: Added, removed, or altered recipes are clearly marked in JEI.
- Recipe filtering:
- Recipes with IDs matching your filter (
recipeIdFilter) are automatically highlighted. - Recipes without IDs can be highlighted based on their outputs (
outputFilter).
- Recipes with IDs matching your filter (
- Customizable markers:
- Per-category marker positions (
categories). - Adjustable X/Y offsets.
- Tooltips with configurable messages (2 lines by default).
- Per-category marker positions (
- Debug mode: Force all recipes to display markers, useful for testing and modpack development.
- Lightweight & client-side only: Does not alter recipes, only enhances JEI’s display.
⚙️ How It Works
- At startup, JEM checks recipes for their ID.
- If the ID contains the
recipeIdFilter, a marker is displayed. - Recipes without an ID are compared against the
outputFilterlist. - Markers can be positioned per recipe category with custom offsets.
- Tooltips show your configured text when hovering over a marker.
- Debug mode (
onlySpecificRecipeID) can override filters to display markers on all recipes.
