TFC Boil Salt Water

THIS DATAPACK IS OBSOLETE AND HAS BEEN FOLDED INTO TFC ARTISANAL. 

This datapack allows you to boil salt water into salt in TerraFirmaCraft 1.20.1.

Changelog v0.2:

Added a recipe by victhor 003, allowing for 5 salt to be extracted from 625 mb of salt water without the use of a stick.

</changelog>

So here’s the deal: The recipes for 1-4 salt still require a stick, while the one for 5 does not. The reason for this is that:

To my understanding, pot recipes are checked in the order that they’re in the recipe list, which means that if a recipe with a larger fluid amount comes after one with a smaller amount in that list, and their ingredients are otherwise the same, the one with the smaller fluid amount will happen. 

For example, if the recipe for 3 salt comes after the recipe for 2 salt, the 3 salt recipe will never get called because Minecraft/TFC/whatever will check the 2 salt recipe first, and see that the ingredients are met, so it will stop checking recipes for a better candidate and just give the 2 salt.

The recipes with sticks are, by pure coincidence, in the correct order. However, if the sticks are removed, the recipes get shuffled, making some inaccessible. Adding the recipe for 5 salt was fine, though, since it was the only one that didn’t use a stick, so there was no chance it would be confused for any of the other recipes.

I am VERY open to suggestions on how to fix this. But anyway, in the meantime, that’s why the recipes for 1-4 salt still have sticks.

Update: This has been fixed in my TFC Artisanal addon. Since fix relies on some of Artisanal’s unique architecture, it will not be backported to this datapack.
