Archived Mob Drops For Custom Recipes

[Nulshi]

Theres a lot of useless lore items that mobs drop so my idea is to make custom recipes for them like using them in alchemy potions or something.

Ex. Sheeps drop Pure Wool sometimes. Maybe there can be a custom recipe so you can craft a few Pure Wool into a special lore armor.
or you can craft lore potions but you need to specifically use the purple lored items. Or you can change the custom recipes that Massive already has to include lore items. so the rarer items like beacons or saddles will need to be crafted with mob drops.

And maybe it could be like you need to combine different mob drops to make other items. like for example if pigmen dropped a gold nugget lore item and witches drop a apple lore item, you can craft them into a special lored gold apple (but it doesnt work like a vanilla gapple) that can be used to make a lore potion.

That would take a lot of coding, and may not be a priority, but you have my support.
+1 on this.

From a tech perspective, I'm unsure if we can use lore item mob drops for any crafting recipes. @ulumulu1510 @Madus

Not possible.

One alternative that should be possible would be to use a more unconventional crafting method. For example, you could click on an npc and a menu would open. This menu would have multiple items listed and you would see the crafting requirements listed under the item. Clicking on an item with all ingredients in your inventory would prompt you with a crafting confirmation. Could something like this be implemented in the foreseeable future?

It could be implemented. But not in the foreseeable future.

This whole suggestion goes into the topic of rewriting item behavior, crafting and other cosmetic aspects. A plugin which would handle all this (and could technically allow crafting with lore items) would need a lot of time to develop and thought put into.

As Madus has put it, we are not able to work on such a plugin in the foreseeable future.

At this time, based on the responses from Tech Staff, this suggestion is rejected.

Thank you for taking the time to propose something new for the server though!
