TFC Pot Rule Breaker is a lightweight prerequisite patch for TerraFirmaCraft / Firmalife addon development and modpack recipe customization.
It does not add gameplay content by itself. Its purpose is to relax several hardcoded input restrictions in TFC Pot and Firmalife Vat recipes so more recipe formats can load and work correctly.

This mod enables:

TFC Pot recipes with fluid-only input and item output
TFC Pot recipes with item-only input and fluid and/or item output
Firmalife Vat recipes without a mandatory input_item
Firmalife Vat recipes that use item-only, fluid-only, or mixed inputs
Compatibility with existing normal recipes, without changing their intended behavior

This mod is mainly intended for:

TFC addon developers
datapack authors
modpack makers who need more flexible Pot / Vat recipe behavior

If you want to create more flexible boiling, soaking, extraction, or distillation recipes for TFC or Firmalife, TFC Pot Rule Breaker is a small backend patch designed to remove those recipe-system limits.

TFC Pot Rule Breaker 是一个面向 TerraFirmaCraft / Firmalife 附属开发与整合包配置的小型前置补丁模组。
它本身不添加新物品或新玩法，主要作用是放宽原版配方系统对 TFC Pot 和 Firmalife Vat 输入形式的限制，让更多类型的配方能够被正常加载和执行。

具体来说，这个模组支持：

TFC Pot 配方只使用液体输入并产出物品
TFC Pot 配方只使用物品输入并产出液体和/或物品
Firmalife Vat 配方省略强制的 input_item
Firmalife Vat 配方只使用物品输入、只使用液体输入，或同时使用两者
保持现有正常配方的兼容性，不主动改动原有玩法数值

这个模组主要面向：

TFC 附属模组开发者
数据包作者
需要自定义 Pot / Vat 配方规则的整合包作者

如果你想为 TFC 或 Firmalife 编写更灵活的锅煮、浸泡、蒸馏或提取配方，TFC Pot Rule Breaker 就是用来打破这些底层限制的前置补丁。
