an autocrafting datapack for minecraft

minecraft autocrafting datapack

this datapack allows for relatively lag free vanilla compatible autocrafting

features of this datapack (all optional):

• two modes: vanilla and modded

  • vanilla makes the crafting table act exactly like vanilla. this produce no noticable lag

  • modded enables features such as autocrafting and nbt crafting. this will produce about 2 mspt

  • the modded mode is enabled when a block from the ac:hoppery blocks tag is either above or below the crafting table

  • prebaked vanilla recipes

  • toggleable autocrafting with hopper, dropper and hopper minecart support

  • nbt support for autocrafting

  • an optional resource pack that makes everything look a bit cleaner (recommended).

  • a generator for compatible recipes from json recipe files.

    • the process should be intuative enough: import source, open destination, generate, but one thing could leave you baffled

      • after generation, you may get a number of invalid recipe's. these show which recipes could not be converted either because they are for something like furnaces or they are special crafting types like minecraft:crafting_special_firework_rocket which can't be emulated by the system (yet)

    • image

    • this generator will be getting an overhaul soon

coming features:

• even more optimisations

• nbt crafting

• more external api support for the pack

• support for crafting_special_*** types

notes:

• this datapack has several thousand files in it, it might take a while to download

• this also goes for reloads, for me it takes ~5 seconds per reload, but if you want to know when the reload completes, run the command /tag @s add debug

• feel free to contact me on discord radiish#9483 if you spot a bug or have a question

api extensions

• this part of the wiki is dedicated to extending this datapack with your own recipes, nbt recipes or adding gui buttons

• the namespace of the extension should follow the format ac.<abbreviation>

• there are many function tags which can be 'extended' with replace: false

  • example mod tree structure:

    • here, the 16 corresponds to slot 16 in the gui
  • for handling gui, there is #ac:api/gui/draw and #ac:api/gui/pull, see example mod for examples (obviously)
    • draw is called when a gui item is put into the container. use this to render your custom buttons and gui elements. in rare cases, draw can be called without calling pull
    • pull is called when a player removes an item from the gui. this happens before draw. use this to trigger your custom buttons
    • not all slots support these events, below is a table of which are usable

      	0	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8
      0	❌	✅	✅	❌	❌	❌	✅	✅	✅
      1	✅	✅	✅	❌	❌	❌	✅	✅	✅
      2	✅	✅	✅	❌	❌	❌	✅	✅	✅

  • there are two pairs of events, #ac:api/summon, #ac:api/destroy, #ac:api/mod_switch and #ac:api/vanilla_switch which deal with the changing states of crafting tables.
  • summon is called when a crafting table is summoned, after it is fully initialised
  • destroy is called when, you guessed it, the crafting table is destoyed (this happens before any blocks or entities are killed)
  • mod_switch is called at any point when the crafting table goes into modded mode (mentioned above)
  • vanilla_switch happens when the table switches to vanilla mode.
