Have you ever wanted to cross a small lava lake and end up using a whole bottle of Fire Resistance potion and felt wasteful for it? Well, not anymore!
This mod adds a capsule item that let you 'split' the duration of a potion into small parts and store them inside the capsules!
Features Added:
Items:
Potion Capsule
You can store a little part of duration from some potion into a capsule, either consume one to gain the effect or put them into a capsule pendant!
Simply craft them with potions:
Craft with any potion
Get a capsule with a small duration of the effect
(There is a config to decide how many ticks should a capsule store)
The duration not used will be left in the potion item
(There is a config to dispose of an effect which duration that is less than a capsule should store)
Potion capsules show their effect stored on its display name
Potion capsule can be cleared by putting it inside a crafting grid:
Combine multiple capsules into one!
(There is a config to disable the combination recipe)
(There is a client-side config to decide how many effect names should be rendered)
Capsule Pendant
Stores capsules with different triggers to use them!
The crafting recipe
The GUI of capsule pendant
There are currently 8 different triggers:
- trigger when the player about to attack
- trigger when the player is being damaged
- trigger when the player is on fire
- trigger when the player is in water
- trigger when the player is sprinting
- trigger when the player is falling
- trigger when the player is in dark
- trigger when the player press down the keybinding
*Special Notes*
- the capsule will not get triggered if the gui is opened -
- only one of them will function if the player has multiple pendants in his inventory -
Blocks:
Gelatin Extractor
Extracts Gelatin Powder
from bones and leathers
Crafting Recipe
Extract Gelatin Powder from items
Gelatin Former
Combine Gelatin Powder with another catalyst to craft
Crafting Recipe
2 Gelatin Powder + 1 Nether Wart Dust
= 8 Potion Capsule
8 Gelatin Powder + 1 Apple = 8 Apple Jelly
Nether Wart Dust
Obtained by breaking mature nether wart crops
(There is a config to enable its crafting recipe -- 1 nether wart = 9 nether wart dust)
Others:
Effect - NightVisionNF
Since the vanilla Night Vision starts to 'flicker' when its duration is less than a certain amount of ticks, plus that the capsule only gives you a short period of effect, you might encounter some situation that capsules with Night Vision flicker on your screen all the time.
So by default, Night Vision will be replaced by NightVisionNF when it is transferred into capsules. (Can be disabled in config)

The idea is marvelous, congrats
Wouldn't a pendant trigger for "in darkness" be more useful/functional than "at nighttime"? Currently, the "at nighttime" slot will trigger when in a lit area at night (i.e. indoors), but not when in a dark area during the day (i.e. in caves). Also, given that nights last about seven minutes, there's not much advantage to using the "at nighttime" slot of the capsule pendant, compared to simply drinking an extended potion at the start of the night - the trigger condition itself ("night") isn't granular, but is being used to trigger a granular effect (five-second capsules).
In reply to re_assembly:
ooh, that makes sense. Changed in version 1.0.5
In reply to Hmysjiang:
Nice, thank you!
The "dark" trigger seemed a little over-sensitive at first, but then I realized there were a few spots in my base that were only at light level 7 - not really "dark", but technically dark enough to spawn hostile mobs. Not the darkness threshold I would have picked, but it sort of makes sense, so it's fine as it is.
One small bug: When the "darkness" trigger causes a potion capsule to be used by the Pendant, the pop-up message just says "Used Air" instead of "Used (potion name)". I'm guessing there's a typo in a variable name somewhere - is the message trying to fetch an item name from an uninitialized item variable?
In reply to re_assembly:
Fixed. Version 1.0.6 will be available later.
The mechanics brought by this mod are awesome.
For someone like me who doesn't like having potions in the hotbar, nor having to switch quickly the potions to the hotbar then using them when starting a fight, this is a must-have : not only you can trigger potions effects when you need them, and the triggers are very well chosen (when on fire, when in water, when sprinting!, when attacking, when falling, when pressing a particular keybind...), but you can also combine several potion effects in a single capsule!
We finally effectively use the potions... even quite often! And with a nice granularity since the effect (can be configured!) lasts basically 5 seconds.
Would love to see some variety in capsule colors in future but cool mod.
This mod is dope! Can't wait to see it in huge modpacks
