WNIR — When Nothing Is Ready

A standalone NeoForge mod for Minecraft 26 that fills gaps in vanilla gameplay with custom blocks, mob effects, enchantments, potions, and utility items.

All items and blocks show a one-sentence description in their tooltip. Hold SHIFT while hovering to expand into a full usage description.

Permanently force-loads its chunk so machines keep running when no player is nearby. Positions survive server restarts.

Place below a column of vanilla mob spawners. Removes the player-proximity requirement and scales spawn delays down with each agitator added.

Limitation: A spawner placed above the agitator after the fact is only detected on chunk reload.

Column block that pushes hostile mobs outward. Stack posts to increase radius.

Can be mixed with Teleporter Inhibitor blocks in a single column — the combined column height counts toward both effects.

A warding-column block that attacks mobs within the column's radius. When named, it targets a specific mob type — including passive mobs.

Workflow: hold a Target Post → right-click a Cow → item becomes Cow → place it → all cows in range take damage every 4 ticks.

Examples:

Name matching is case-insensitive (cow and Cow both work).

Prevents entity teleportation (Endermen blink, Chorus Fruit, Ender Pearls) within radius. Stacks with Warding Posts in a mixed column.

Column block that accelerates the block-entity machine directly above (or below the column bottom). Each clock in the column adds one extra tick per game tick.

Interaction with crystals: placing a Budding Amethyst or Crying Obsidian directly on top of an EE Clock column transforms them into the corresponding crystal growth block (see below).

A growth block that slowly converts into a new EE Clock. Created automatically when a Budding Amethyst block is placed on top of an EE Clock column, or when an EE Clock is placed beneath an existing Budding Amethyst.

This block is not accelerated by the EE Clock it sits on top of — that would be recursive.

A growth block that slowly converts into a Personal Dimension Teleporter. Created automatically when Crying Obsidian is placed on top of an EE Clock column, or when an EE Clock is placed beneath existing Crying Obsidian.

The crystal will not transform until it is both fully grown and fully fuelled.

Teleports a player to the shared wnir:personal dimension, into their own private region. Each player gets a separate area along the X-axis.

Head mechanic — place a skull directly above the teleporter to control access:

Hunger cost: player must have a full hunger bar (20 food points).

• Attempting to teleport with less than 20 food deals 1 HP damage and is denied.
• Successful teleport drains hunger and saturation to 0.

A 10-slot hopper designed for item sorting. It never ejects the last item in a slot, keeping one copy in-place as a permanent filter.

Right-click to open the GUI. Pulls from above and pushes in its facing direction, like a vanilla hopper.

A 10-slot high-throughput hopper. Transfers 8 items per 8-tick cycle — no restrictions on which slots are used.

A regulator hopper. Instead of blindly inserting items, it checks how many non-empty slots the target already has (= N) and pulls from its own slot N. It will not insert an item if the target already contains that item type.

How it works:

• Count occupied slots in target = N
• Pull from hopper slot N
• If target already has that item type → skip (regulator rule)
• Otherwise push 1 item to the first accepting empty slot in target

This naturally fills a target inventory with exactly one of each item type — each hopper slot controls what goes into the next available target slot.

Supports vanilla containers (slot-mapped) and modded inventories via NeoForge item capability (regulator-only, no slot mapping).

Explosion-immune decorative block. Withstands Wither skulls, Creeper and TNT explosions, bed explosions in the Nether — anything.

Completely suppresses Wither spawn and death sounds across the entire dimension. Place anywhere in the dimension — one block is sufficient; the effect is dimension-wide.

The sounds suppressed are entity.wither.spawn and entity.wither.death. All other Wither sounds (ambient, hurt, shoot) are unaffected. Suppression is client-side — the block registers its position on chunk load and deregisters on removal.

An automated turret that fires arrows at nearby hostile mobs. Load it with bows, arrows, and gunpowder and it handles the rest.

Inventory (136 slots):

• Selects the least-damaged, reload-ready weapon each shot
• Weapons about to break are excluded automatically (plays click sound); replace or repair to re-enable
• Supports Flame (5s fire) and Power enchants on the bows
• Arrow type chosen at random from storage — tipped and spectral arrows work
• Sneak + right-click to pick the block up with all contents preserved

Converts enchanted books, armor, weapons, and tools + water + FE into Magic Cellulose fluid, and disassembles equipment back into its crafting materials.

Right-click to open the GUI: energy bar, water tank, cellulose tank, progress arrow, and nine output slots. Contents are preserved when the block is mined.

Enchanted book / configured item path:

• XP from the book is processed tick by tick, consuming water and FE proportionally.
• Rate: 200 XP/tick → 20 mB cellulose, 20 mB water, 200 FE per tick.
• Machine pauses and preserves progress when resources run out.

Disassembly path (armor, weapons, tools):

• Looks up the item's crafting recipe (smithing → crafting fallback) and extracts the ingredient list as materials.
• Damage scaling — both processing time and upfront energy scale with remaining health (pristine = full cost; heavily damaged = cheaper and faster):
  • Pristine item: 80 ticks + 128 FE upfront
  • 50 % damaged: 40 ticks + 64 FE
• Whether materials drop at all is also chance-based: a fully damaged item has 0 % chance of returning any materials.
• Materials appear in the nine output slots only after all XP processing finishes.
• Machine stalls if output slots are full.

Extra item sources: edit config/wnir_celluloser.toml to add non-enchanted items with fixed XP values (created with defaults on first server start):

[sources]
evilcraft:origins_of_darkness = 200
ars_nouveau:caster_tome = 400
waystones:attuned_shard = 100

Vanilla hoppers can push items into the input slot directly.

Consumes Magic Cellulose fluid to spawn hostile mobs of the types that naturally appear at its location. Learns which mobs to spawn from the biome's mob spawn list and any active structure spawn overrides — so placing it inside a Nether Fortress also produces Wither Skeletons and Blazes.

Mob type is chosen randomly each cycle, weighted by the biome's spawn weight table. The next target is picked immediately after a spawn.

A pale-pink fluid produced by the Celluloser. Collect it with a bucket to get a Magic Cellulose Bucket.

Bonds a player to their tamed pet, giving the pet a full combat and survival kit managed through a custom inventory screen.

Binding:

• Craft a pair of rings (see recipe)
• Shift + right-click on your tamed pet to bind one ring to it; keep the other in your inventory

Opening the inventory:

• Right-click on the bound pet to open the ring screen

Slots:

Below the ring slots is a 27-slot standard storage grid. Put food here — the pet eats from it automatically when hungry, and will also feed your other nearby pets that are hurt.

Combat AI:

• Attacks any hostile mob within dist(pet → owner) blocks that threatens the player or the pet itself
• Melee, spear, and mace goals automatically selected based on the equipped weapon
• Shield blocking reduces incoming damage and tracks durability

Healing:

• Any potion dropped into the Potions slot is stored internally (unlimited count, grouped by potion type)
• When health falls below 50%, the pet drinks the best available healing potion
• Potions with Instant Health or Regeneration are preferred; any stored potion is used as a fallback

Pet feeding:

• Every 5 seconds, if the ring pet is not actively fighting (or is in Calm mode), it scans for your other tamed pets within 32 blocks that are below full health and feeds them from its own storage
• For ring-bound targets, both HP and hunger level are restored

Buttons in the GUI:

• Calm — pet stops fighting; useful for a dedicated caretaker pet
• AI — toggles the wedding ring combat AI on/off

Unbinding / death:

• Shift+right-click the bound pet to unbind — all items are returned
• If the pet dies, all stored items (including potions) drop at its position and the ring item breaks into 7 gold ingots

Picks up any block (except bedrock and air) along with its full NBT data, then places it back on right-click — consuming the tape.

Picking up:

• Stores the block's state and block entity data (inventory contents, spawner config, etc.)
• Containers have their items cleared before removal to prevent duplication
• The tape switches to a special visual showing the block's face texture with a blue X cross

Placing:

• Restores the block and reloads all stored NBT into the new block entity
• Places the block on the face you click

Information:

• Item name changes to "Wrapped <block name>" while holding a block
• Tooltip shows container contents (up to 8 items) with counts
• Tooltip shows spawner entity type when wrapping a mob spawner

Crafting recipe: see data/wnir/recipe/blue_sticky_tape.json

A compass that spirals outward from the player's position to find the nearest instance of a target block.

Searching by block item:

• Hold any block in your offhand
• Right-click the compass to begin searching

Searching by name:

• Rename a name tag on an anvil to the block's display name (e.g. Chest, Nether Brick, Wither Skeleton Skull)
• Hold the name tag in your offhand
• Right-click to search — match is case-insensitive

While searching:

• The needle spins toward the currently scanned chunk
• The action bar shows the current search radius in chunks
• On success: needle locks onto the found block, item glints, coordinates shown
• On failure: "Block not found" message, needle resets

Notes:

• Search radius: up to 16 chunks from the player's position
• Only loaded chunks are scanned; unloaded chunks are skipped and the search continues around them
• Dropping or switching away from the compass cancels the search
• Right-click with an empty offhand shows a usage hint

All effects are beneficial. Obtain via potions, commands, or any mod that grants effects.

Boosts melee damage based on the held weapon tier. Weaker weapons hit harder but apply debuffs to the attacker.

AoE hits all entities in the forward hemisphere within interaction range.

Obtainable as a potion: Potion / Splash Potion / Lingering Potion / Arrow of Martial Lightning.

Replaces fired arrows with homing shulker bullets that track the nearest enemy.

• Target priority: entity under crosshair within 100 blocks, then nearest entity within 50 blocks
• Damage: up to 18 at full draw (scales with bow pull and arrow velocity)

You glow. Mobs can always find you. They suffer for it.

• Permanent Glowing + Night Vision on the player
• All mobs within 48 blocks get 2× Follow Range
• When a mob locks onto you: 25% chance Blindness (5s), 25% chance Weakness (5s), applied to the mob

Removes the "Too Expensive!" anvil cap. All repair and enchanting operations go through regardless of accumulated cost. Cost display is capped at 39 XP.

Can also be brewed as a potion — see Potions.

Your next hit deals 8× damage, then the effect is consumed. One shot.

Indicator effect. No gameplay behaviour. Reserved for integration with external tools or manual creative use.

All enchantments are available at the enchanting table on applicable item types.

Increases attack speed.

Applicable to: swords, axes (#minecraft:enchantable/weapon)
