The 1.18+ version of this data pack has been split into these two data packs:



Adds in new crafting recipes and makes some old ones more efficient.

Better Smithing Recipes

The smithing table now has the ability to transfer enchantments, item names, or other forms of data between items of similar types. However, it will not combine enchantments or replace durability. The process works like this:
  1. The item in the first slot of the smithing table is the base item. This is the item in which all of its data (enchantments, name, etc.) will transfer over to the item in the slot just to the right of it. You can see a list of items that can be merged at the end of this section.
  2. The item in the second slot of the smithing table is the addition. It will take all data from the base item except the actual type of item itself. For example, if you had a gold sword base item and a diamond sword addition, the diamond sword would inherit the name and enchantments of the gold sword (also any other data such as lore or tags, but you likely wont see data other than the names and enchantments of an item very often).
  3. The third item is the merged item made up of both the base and addition item.
Axes: all axes
Hoes: all hoes :)
Pickaxes: all pickaxes
Shovels: all shovels
Swords: all swords, sticks, bamboo, blaze rods, and bones

​Boots: all boots
Chestplates: all chestplates, and elytra
Helmets: all helmets, turtle helmet, and carved pumpkins (I would have added player heads here, but the data doesn't transfer over, so the merged item would just be a steve head)
Leggings: all leggings

All wool should turn into string, not just white.

Yes. The enchantments and durability of the item in the first slot (iron sword) are transferred to the diamond sword.

I like the concept of this pack, however I feel that the mushroom block recipe should be different:

As mushroom blocks usually drop 0-2 mushrooms, I think the recipe should be 4 mushrooms --> 2 mushroom blocks and 1 mushroom block -> 2 mushrooms. It just makes more sense considering how the game works.

Sometimes blocks dont always drop 100% of their components to make the block such as melon blocks. This is what makes silk touch useful.
