CraftCascade

CraftCascade

CraftCascade (级联合成) brings one-click recursive crafting to Minecraft. Choose a target item, and let it work through the intermediate crafting recipes using the materials available at your current crafting station.

Features

• Recursive crafting: complete multi-step workbench recipes without manually crafting every intermediate ingredient.
• JEI and EMI integration: use familiar recipe, crafting and bookmark interfaces to select targets and inspect their dependencies.
• Material previews: see available stock, missing ingredients and shared material requirements before crafting.
• Recipe choices and saved plans: choose alternative recipes, mark ingredients as supplied, and remember preferred crafting routes.
• Material protection: protect renamed and enchanted items from accidental consumption, and explicitly exclude item types when needed. Reusable tools retain their normal wear and breakage behavior.
• Batch crafting: choose an output quantity or use the viewer’s bulk crafting controls. Recipes are completed in whole batches, so surplus output is retained.
• Adjacent storage: supported workbenches can access eligible nearby inventories through live storage slots.

CraftCascade follows the actual crafting station’s recipe and inventory rules. It focuses on crafting-grid recipes; ingredients made by furnaces or other processing machines can be supplied from stock.

Getting started

1. Install CraftCascade and a supported recipe viewer, JEI or EMI.
2. Open a vanilla workbench or a supported crafting station.
3. Select the desired recipe through the viewer’s usual crafting or transfer controls.
4. Review the material requirements and recipe choices, then craft the target.

The crafting chain is integrated into the existing viewer interfaces. Recipe settings also provide material protection and exclusion controls.

Requirements and compatibility

• Minecraft: 1.20.1
• Loader: Forge 47.4.1 or a compatible later 47.x release

JEI and EMI are optional integrations; install one to use its recipe-driven crafting-chain interface. Recommended verified releases are JEI 15.20.0.129 and EMI 1.1.24 for Minecraft 1.20.1 Forge.

Optional compatibility includes Tinkers’ Construct crafting stations and GTCEu crafting tools. CraftCascade runs independently and does not require GTLCore or GTCEu.
