Adds a Brewable Potion of Levitation
(that's fully polished for vanilla+)
Potion of Levitation is brewed from an Awkward Potion using Popped Chorus Fruit as the reagent.
- The Potion of Levitation supports ALL standard potion permutations
- Also supports Levitation Tipped Arrows (which are very funny)
Brewing Breakdown
You can find the graphic for this information in the project gallery
Awkward Potion + Popped Chorus Fruit = Potion of Levitation (00:15)
Potion of Levitation I + Redstone Dust = Potion of Levitation (00:45)
Potion of Levitation I + Glowstone Dust = Potion of Levitation II (00:15)
Potion of Levitation I (00:15) + Gunpowder = Splash Potion of Levitation (00:15)
Potion of Levitation I (00:45) + Gunpowder = Splash Potion of Levitation (00:45)
Potion of Levitation II (00:15) + Gunpowder = Splash Potion of Levitation II (00:15)
Splash Potion of Levitation I (00:15) + Dragon's Breath = Lingering Potion of Levitation (00:03)
Splash Potion of Levitation I (00:45) + Dragon's Breath = Lingering Potion of Levitation (00:11)
Splash Potion of Levitation II (00:15) + Dragon's Breath = Lingering Potion of Levitation II (00:03)
Lingering Potion of Levitation (00:03) + 8x Arrow = 8x Arrow of Levitation (00:01)
Lingering Potion of Levitation (00:11) + 8x Arrow = 8x Arrow of Levitation (00:05)
Lingering Potion of Levitation II (00:03) + 8x Arrow = 8x Arrow of Levitation II (00:01)

Why Popped Chorus Fruit?
Given the levitation effect can only be encountered after reaching the outer End islands, I figure it only makes sense that the reagent be sourced from the End dimension.
While Shulker Shells would be the most 'related' material, their scarcity would render their use unreasonable
(you would not catch me making 6 levitation potions over a shulker box)
The Chorus Flower is a decent candidate, historically though, reagents are not blocks. The only block reagents are for the recently added trial chamber potions (weaving, oozing, & infested), and/but I'd sooner group a levitation potion in with the standard potion set rather than with the newer exceptions. The Chorus Stem would just be a less interesting version of the above.
Chorus Fruit is a good option, though its existing 'magical property' of teleporting the player feels slightly counterintuitive to being a levitation potion reagent. Having the pre-processing step of cooking the fruit (minorly) assists in this, but moreso I better like the idea of adding a function to a benign material rather than stacking uses onto a material that already has some.
End Rods are the other obvious candidate, but I uhhh, don't wanna, idk.
(as much as I'd like to complete the Blaze Rod + Breeze Rod + End Rod brewing set, me having to look at its full block model in the inventory next to the other normal rods would personally upset me more than the satisfaction of completing the trifecta would be worth, lol (also it's technically a block (also end rods are crafted using popped chorus fruit which adds a second more annoying pre-processing step that I shall be arbitrarily drawing the line at)))
Popped Chorus Fruit retains the property of being readily farmable, having a reasonable preprocessing step, closely aligning ~vibes~ with vanilla reagents, and adds a functional purpose to a material that is otherwise just used as an intermediary for crafting other blocks. this is nary but the opinion of one humble DRECUBED
