Custom Enchantment Upgrade Recipes - DaFuqs/Spectrum GitHub Wiki

Enchantment Upgrade recipes in the Enchanter differ quite a bit from other recipe types. Specifically, you need just a single recipe file to specify a complete upgrade path for all levels of an enchantment. As is normal for recipes in the Enchanter, it requires a structure with 8 Item Bowls, making the input 9 items, with a tenth item to supply experience (Usually a Knowledge Gem). The bowls have to be filled with a specified amount of a single item and an enchanted book with the enchantment wished to upgrade. The result is always an Enchanted Book with a level equal to the previous level + 1.

The crafting duration is dependent on the amount of items required for each upgrade step.

---

You are able to specify enchantment upgrades over the usual max level (and very welcome to!).

Upgrading to those levels will be not possible until the player unlocked the advancement spectrum:milestones/unlock_overenchanting_with_enchanter though. If you do not like overenchanting at all or want to make it accessible right when unlocking the Enchanter instead, feel free to modify this advancement with a data pack.

Properties

Entry	Type	Default	Description
group	string	empty	A string that represents a recipe group. Recipes with a common group will only trigger a single unlock popup, if multiple are unlocked at once. Add a localization string recipeGroup.spectrum.<<your_group_string>> so the toast popup is properly localized
secret	boolean	false	If true, the recipe will never be listed in recipe listing mods, like REI
required_advancement	advancement_identifier	empty	The advancement a player needs to have to be able to see this recipe. Spectrum will automatically show a toast to the player when this advancement has been unlocked and reached the set tier
enchantment	enchantment_identifier		The enchantment to upgrade
levels	level_entry list		An array specifying the requirements for upgrading the enchantment, starting with level 1 => level 2

Enchantment Level Entry

Entry	Type	Description
item	item_identifier	The item identifier required in the Item Bowls (no tags allowed)
item_count	int	The total item count required in the Item Bowls
experience	int	The experience consumed from the Knowledge Gem for this upgrade step

Example: Upgrade path for enchanted books with the "Treasure Hunter" enchantment.

Note that there are four level specifications, for levels 1 => 2, 2 => 3, 3 => 4, and 4 => 5.
