Super Crafting

Super Crafting is a Forge mod for Minecraft 1.20.1 that expands the vanilla crafting system by adding a powerful 5×5 crafting table.

The mod introduces a new block called the Super Crafting Table. It is designed mainly for modpacks and custom recipe systems, allowing creators to build complex crafting mechanics using flexible JSON recipes and command triggers.

Main Features

Adds a 5×5 crafting table with up to 25 ingredient slots.

Supports item, tag, count, and NBT matching.

Optional mirrored recipe support.

Configurable crafting time with crafting animation.

The Super Crafting Table also works as a container block and can store items like a chest.

Custom Recipe System

Recipes are defined using JSON files.

Supported features include custom ingredient positions, ingredient counts, NBT matching, custom output items, and configurable crafting time.

Recipe files are located in:

data/super_crafting/recipes/

The mod includes several example recipes to demonstrate how the system works.

Crafting Effects and Commands

Recipes can optionally trigger visual effects and commands.

Floating display item
A floating item can appear above the block while crafting to visually show the item being crafted.

Start command
Commands can run when crafting begins.

Tick commands
Commands can run repeatedly during the crafting process using a configurable tick interval.

Finish command
Commands can run when crafting completes.

Commands are executed with permission level 4 and can be used for sounds, particles, titles, or datapack interactions.

JEI Integration

When Just Enough Items (JEI) is installed, players can view 5×5 recipes, see crafting duration, bookmark recipes, and use ingredient auto-transfer.

Important Notes

This mod is mainly intended for modpacks.

The Super Crafting Table does not include a default crafting recipe. Recipes must be defined manually.

Slot numbers range from 0 to 24.

NBT matching is partial except for ListTag data such as enchantments, which require exact matching.

High-frequency tick commands may affect server performance.

Dependency

This mod requires Just Enough Items (JEI) version 15.0.0.0 or newer.

The game will not start without JEI installed.

Known Issue

If the Super Crafting Table is broken while crafting, consumed ingredients will not be returned.
