Most of the times you can find the crafting recipe by opening the init.lua in the mod folder. In this case the "default" folder. The default folder is the most important part of the 'main'-game. It offers you a basic minetest-game. You can find the init.lua file of the default folder here: /games/common/mods/default

Receipts:

Paper:

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

minetest.register_craft({
    output = 'default:paper',
    recipe = {
        {'default:papyrus', 'default:papyrus', 'default:papyrus'},
    }
})

==> To make paper, make a horizontal line of papyrus in your crafting grid like this P P P (P=Papyrus). It doesn't matter if the horizontal row is in the top, middle or bottom row.


Book:

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

minetest.register_craft({
    output = 'default:book',
    recipe = {
        {'default:paper'},
        {'default:paper'},
        {'default:paper'},
    }
})

==> to make a book, make a vertical row of paper in your crafting grid like this:
P
P
P
(P= Paper :-o ). It doesn't matter if the vertical row is in the left, middle or right row.

Edit: typo

This could be another case of the wiki being out of date.
There is another problem with the crafting system: if a crafting recipie has a "replacements" field the replacement only happens if there is no leftover of the item being replaced. For example: with Vanessa E's coloredwood mod: you can lose vessels by putting more than one dye bottle into the crafting grid.

I think you need repair your crafting system.
