I wonder if there is any mod that makes the resources renewable, maybe using Create, where you can wash sand to get some ore with very low chance, etc. I think I saw something similar in one of the ilmango series.
Tried growable ore, it's simply too OP.
Apparently I'm too old for the new stuff. There is a thing called data pack, where you can just write json and add new recipes to the game, that works for mods too.
But I don't want to write json in a text editor. I want to write code that generate those json for me

ok, apparently there is a mod called CraftTweaker, which don't requires you to write json by hand.
Great.
