ResearchTable – Unofficial

ResearchTable – Unofficial

ResearchTable is a configurable research and quest table framework for Minecraft. It adds a Research Table block and lets modpack authors define research categories, requirements, progress conditions, triggers, and rewards through CraftTweaker scripts.

This project is an unofficial fork and NeoForge 1.21.1 port of ResearchTable. The original project and copyright belong to Snownee. This upload is maintained separately and is not an official release by the original author.

What This Mod Does

• Adds a Research Table block for starting, progressing, cancelling, and completing scripted research entries.
• Lets pack makers create research trees with categories, icons, titles, descriptions, dependencies, and repeat limits.
• Supports item, fluid, Forge Energy, and player experience submission requirements.
• Supports world and player gates such as completed researches, scoreboard values, biomes, dimensions, weather, and time of day.
• Supports rewards and start triggers such as commands, items, and experience.
• Stores research progress per player or team owner, with FTB Teams support when available.
• Keeps Research Table progress when the block is broken and placed again.

ResearchTable does not include a built-in quest line. It is a framework for modpack authors, and usable research content must be provided by scripts or a datapack/mod integration.

Requirements

• Minecraft 1.21.1
• NeoForge 21.1.x
• CraftTweaker is required for defining research content through ZenScript.

Optional Integrations

• AStages: stage-based research requirements and rewards.
• FTB Teams: shared team research progress.
• Jade: Research Table tooltip information.
• The One Probe: Research Table probe information.

For Modpack Authors

Research content is defined with CraftTweaker. A minimal script can create a category, define a research entry, add requirements, and grant rewards.

Example:

import mods.researchtable.ResearchTable;

val general = ResearchTable.addCategory(<item:minecraft:book>, "research.category.general");

ResearchTable.builder("first_research", general)
    .setTitle("research.first.title")
    .setDescription("research.first.description")
    .addItemCondition(<item:minecraft:paper> * 8)
    .addXPCondition(50)
    .setRewardItems(<item:minecraft:emerald>)
    .build();

Language keys such as research.first.title and research.first.description should be provided by your resource pack or modpack resources.
