"Shannara Chronicles like post-apocalypse fantasy RPG with an end game goal to hoard more gold than an ancient-alien-dwarven-dragon-tech-baron"

Defend your base against modded monster hordes every 7 days, upgrade your gear and yourself, build your factory, defeat the bosses, and remember... HOARD!

This is a work in progress personal passion project. It may or may not ever be finished. Just the mods are all loading currently. Lots of keybinding conflicts, mod configurations, and all the quests still need to be finished. Along with potential changes to the mod list, including the custom "Hoard" mod!
***Hoard mod not implemented yet***

***Recommeded to dedicate at LEAST 8-10gb of ram and turn off optional resource packs like fresh animations, hyper realistic skybox etc...

My friends and I currently all have 16gbs dedicated to the client on a server with 10 gb of ram running smoothly***

WORK IN PROGRESS ideas
Minecraft Mod:
Hoard

Azerite + Mithril = Aztheril

Goals:
1) Visible long term wealth collection for fantasy-like rpgs instead of a greg tech stargate goal
2) Advancements/Achievements/Quests that mark when you've reach real life and fictional individuals' net worth
3) Aztheril ore is created when enough pure gold is concentrated with pure diamonds/emeralds/Amethyst.

WORK IN PROGRESS ideas
Minecraft Mod:
Hoard

Azerite + Mithril = Aztheril

4) Stretch Goal: Add Aztheril ore in world gen, same enchantability as Pure Gold (30), armor points (helm, chest, legs, feet: 6+16+12+6 = 40), toughness (8+8+8+ 8 = 32) much rarer than netherite but spawns in clumps/seams higher chance in the deep dark under large mountains around large gold veins.

How to get the "Hallowed Cosmic Gemstone"

2 Quartz Blocks + 2 Redstone Lamps + 2 Iron Blocks + 2 Copper Blocks = 1/8 of "Cosmic Stone"
so (8 Quartz + 8 Glowstone + 8 Redstone + 9 Iron + 9 Copper ) * 8 = 64 Quartz and Glowstone and Redstone, and 72 Iron and Copper to get to a "Cosmic Stone"

2 Prismarine + 2 Amethyst Blocks + 4 Lapis Lazuli = 1/8 of "Cosmic Gem"
so (8 Prismarine + 8 Amethyst + 4 Lapis) * 8 = 64 Prismarine and 64 Amethyst and 32 Lapis Lazuli to get a "Cosmic Gem"

"Cosmic Gem" + 4 Emeralds + 2 Diamonds + "Cosmic Stone" = 1/8 of "Cosmic Jewel"
* 8 = to get a "Cosmic Jewel"
576 Iron and Copper
512 Quartz, Glowstone, Prismarine, Redstone, and Amethyst
256 Lapis Lazuli
32 Emeralds
16 Diamonds

8 Lodestones + Nether Star = "Cosmic Core"

8 "Cosmic Jewel" and "Cosmic Core" = "Hallowed Cosmic Gemstone"
so in total
4,608 Iron and Copper
4,096 Quartz, Glowstone, Prismarine, Redstone, and Amethyst
2,048 Lapis Lazuli
256 Emeralds
128 Diamonds
8 Netherite Ingots (32 netherite scrap)
1 Netherstar

262,144 Vanilla Gold Ingots For each Pure Aztheril Nugget (You get the "Hallowed Cosmic Gemstone" back though)
or
2,097,152 Vanilla Gold Ingots per Pure Aztheril Ingot (You get the "Hallowed Cosmic Gemstone" back though)

Conversion rates:

Convert from vanilla gold ingots to "Pure Gold Ingot" (8 vanilla gold ingots = 1 "Pure Gold Ingot")
1 "Pure Gold Ingot" = 8 "Pure Gold Nuggets"

Stretch Goal: Traders will trade 1 vanilla Emerald for 1 Pure Gold Nugget.

In-game to real-life value:
Standard gold bar is 400 troy ounces (27.5 pounds)
Current price is roughly $2500 USD per troy ounce
meaning 1 Pure Gold Ingot is worth $1,000,000
1 coin = 6.25 troy ounce = $15,625
1 nugget = 50 troy ounces = $125,000
1 stack = 50 troy ounces = $125,000
1 ingot = 400 troy ounces = $1,000,000
1 layer = 400 troy ounces = $1,000,000
1 block = 3200 troy ounces = $8,000,000

1 Vanilla Gold Ingot <-> 8 "Pure Gold Coins" <-> 1 "Pure Gold Coin Stack" <-> 1 "Pure Gold Nugget" = $125,000

8 Vanilla Gold Ingots <-> 8 "Pure Gold Nuggets" <-> 1 layer of "Pure Gold Coin Pile" <-> 1 "Pure Gold Coin Stack" <-> 1 "Pure Gold Ingot" = $1,000,000

8 "Pure Gold Ingots" <-> 8 layers of "Pure Gold Coin Piles" <-> 1 "Pure Gold Block" = $8,000,000

8 "Pure Gold Blocks" = 1 "Impure Aztheril Nugget" = $64,000,000

8 "Impure Aztheril Nuggets" = 1 "Impure Aztheril Ingot" = $512,000,000

8 "Impure Aztheril Ingots" = 1 "Impure Aztheril Block" = $4,096,000,000

8 "Impure Aztheril Block" + "Hallowed Cosmic Gemstone" ("Hallowed Cosmic Gemstone" is returned on use) = 1 "Pure Aztheril Nugget" = $32,768,000,000

8 "Pure Aztheril Nuggets" = 1 "Pure Aztheril Ingot" = $262,144,000,000

8 "Pure Aztheril Ingots" = 1 "Pure Aztheril Block" = $2,097,152,000,000

8 "Pure Aztheril Blocks" = 1 "Hoard Gold Nugget" = $16,777,216,000,000

8 "Hoard Gold Nuggets" = 1 "Hoard Gold Ingot" = $134,217,728,000,000

(1,073,741,824 or roughly 1 billion vanilla gold ingots)

8 "Hoard Gold Ingots" = 1 "Hoard Gold Block" = $1,073,741,824,000,000

For now only pure gold, but stretch goals of every texture copper to Aztheril
"Pure Coin"(1-8 coins): Placed and increased like snow layers, displays like randomly thrown coins,
"Pure Coin Stack" (1-8 stacks): recipe is 8 coins per stack, placed and increased like snow layers, displays like increasing amount of various sized stacks

"Pure Ingots" (1-8 stacked ingots): Placed and increased like snow layers, 2 ingots each ingot level, ingots are 2 "snow" layers thick
"Hallowed Cosmic Gemstone" (1): Floats and shimmers like a Nebula

Stretch Goal:
Treasure pile (1-8 layers): Placed and increased like snow layers, various gold coins, gold objects, emerald necklaces amethyst bracelets, diamond rings, recipe is 1 pure diamond, 2 pure emeralds, 2 pure amethysts, 4 pure gold ingots per layer.

Background and math for game to real life networth:

Standard gold bar is 400 troy ounces (27.5 pounds)
Current price is roughly $2500 USD per troy ounce
meaning 1 gold ingot is worth $1,000,000

1 kilogram = 32.1507 troy ounces = $80,376.75
1 metric ton = 32,150.7 troy ounces = $80,376,750
1 kiloton ton = 1000 metric tons = 32,150,700 troy ounces = $80,376,750,000

Gold in the US as of 2024 8,133.46 metric tons (8.13346 kilotons) = $653,741,081,055
Low estimate for all current mined real life gold ( 187,000 metric tons = 187 kilotons) = $15,030,452,250,000
Low estimate for all gold in the world, including not mined ( 244,000 tons = 244 kilotons) = $19,611,927,000,000
High estimate for all current mined real life gold (2,500,000 metric tons = 2,500 kilotons) = $200,941,875,000,000

Gold under Mt. Erebor:
Movie gold in the pool 2,069,925 metric tons (2,069 kilotons = 2.069 megatons) = $ 166,373,844,243,750
Movie gold in the pile 16,646,250 metric tons (16,646 kilotons = 16.646 megatons) = $ 1,337,971,474,687,500
Total gold under Mt. Erebor 18,716,175 metric tons (18,716 kilotons = 18.716 megatons) = $ 1,504,345,318,931,250
aka 1.5 quadrillion 1,500 trillion

Asteroid Psyche gold value = $ 1,093,123,800,000,000,000
Asteroid Psyche in real life 27,200,000,000,000,000,000 kilograms = 27,200,000,000,000,000 metric tons
Assume 50% metal, 13,600,000,000,000,000 metric tons
Earth's core is estimated to contain 1.6 quadrillion tons of gold, which is about one part per million of the core's total mass
Assume 13,600,000,000 metric tons of gold given the same percentage or 13,600,000 kilotons or 13,600 megatons or 13.635 gigatons = $ 1,093,123,800,000,000,000
aka 1 Quintillion USD aka 1000 quadrillion aka 1,000,000 trillion aka 1,000,000 billion

Total gold in Earth's Crust 8.83 x 1013 kg negligible compared to...
Total Gold in Earth's core 1,600,000,000,000,000 metric tons of gold = $ 128,602,800,000,000,000,000,000
aka 128 sextillion 602 quintillion 800 quadrillion... aka a fuck load

In-game to real-life value:
Standard gold bar is 400 troy ounces (27.5 pounds)
Current price is roughly $2500 USD per troy ounce
meaning 1 gold ingot is worth $1,000,000
1 coin = 6.25 troy ounce = $15,625
1 nugget = 50 troy ounces = $125,000
1 ingot = 400 troy ounces = $1,000,000
1 block = 3200 troy ounces = $8,000,000

Even with octals (8^x, "Compressing pure gold ore 1, 2, 3, etc... times) this will take a lot to get to 100 sextillion, any other ideas?

9 diamonds = 1 diamond block = 1 cubic meter = 3510kg
Divide by 9 = 390kg = 1 diamond
then using kg to carats and looking at diamonds similar to the Minecraft diamond in real life i got: $204,050,000

Check this math and do the same for Emerald and Amethyst
