Minecraft recipes have problems with mathematics. You spend 6 oak planks to get 4 stairs. You spend more blocks to get fewer blocks, and the stairs also have less volume than solid planks. The same problem applies to a fence where 3 posts cost 5 planks, or a fencegate that takes 4 planks for 1 gate. The intermediate crafts of sticks further aggravates the situation. This wastes a lot of resources and time, especially when preparing for large projects.
And Mojang previously provided alternative recipes in Stone Cutter to solve these problems. And many other data packs picked up the idea, adding recipes for wood to the Stone Cutter. But these recipes are either too unbalanced or too inconvenient. Therefore, I provide my vision of recipes for the wood:
I tried to maintain a balance between ease of construction: having 1 plank you have a choice of 9 building blocks: stairs, slabs, sign, fence, fencegate, button, pressure plate, door, trapdoor. And the cost of crafting: 6 stripped logs = 6 hanging signs, then all logs/wood can be used for hanging signs in this ratio; trapdoors, doors, fences, etc. are obtained in no more than one item. There are also no items that are too expensive and less popular in mass build: chests, лодки, composters or lecterns. And the entire craft process goes only in one direction: log to stripped, wood, stripped wood; stripped log to stripped wood; and all log/wood to planks or hanging signs.
Among other things, I have added recipes for buttons and pressure plates for stone and polished blackstone for the Cutter.
Thanks to this data pack for the starting point of my project.
