Calculate Total Materials Needed for Multi-Step Crafting
Breaking Down Complex Recipes
When crafting items that require multiple stages—like tools that need ingots, which need ore smelted first—use the craft command to see every raw material you need.
How to Use
1. Open chat with T or /
2. Type /calc craft <item> <amount> where <item> is what you want to make and <amount> is how many
3. Press Enter
The mod will trace back through the recipe chain and show you the total count of every base material required. For example, if you want 10 diamond pickaxes, it calculates not just the diamonds and sticks needed, but also the wood required to make those sticks.
Copying Results
The final numbers appear in green text in your chat. Click any green result to copy it directly to your clipboard, then paste it into a notepad or sign to keep track while gathering materials.
Tip
Use this before a mining trip or gathering session to know exactly what you need to collect.
