The Smooth Elevator

Elevator Essentials — Advanced Crafting Guide

The plugin allows you to create custom crafting trees using external ingredients or intermediate components. This enables configurations such as:

• A + B = C
• D + E = F
• C + F = ELEVATOR

Administrators can use vanilla items or items from other plugins (ItemsAdder, Oraxen, CustomCraft, etc.) without needing to depend on their specific APIs.

Step 1 — Register External Ingredients

Hold the item in your hand and use the following command:

• /elevador item set A
• /elevador item set B
• /elevador item set D
• /elevador item set E

This saves the complete ItemStack into the configuration under: parts_crafting.external_items

Automatically generated example:

external_items:
  a:
    id: minecraft:iron_block
  b:
    id: minecraft:redstone_block
  d:
    id: minecraft:redstone_torch
  e:
    id: minecraft:piston

These items are then referenced as: ext:A, ext:B, ext:D, ext:E.

---

Step 2 — Define Internal Parts

Parts are items created by the plugin that serve as intermediate components. Example:

parts:
  C:
    material: SMOOTH_STONE
    name_fallback: "&eElevator Part C"

  F:
    material: IRON_PRESSURE_PLATE
    name_fallback: "&eElevator Part F"

These are referenced as: part:C, part:F.

Step 3 — Define Recipes

Recipes function as logical blocks. Basic Example:

recipes:
  part_c:
    type: shapeless
    result:
      type: part
      id: C
    ingredients:
      - ext:A
      - ext:B

  part_f:
    type: shapeless
    result:
      type: part
      id: F
    ingredients:
      - ext:D
      - ext:E

  elevator_final:
    type: shapeless
    result:
      type: elevator
    ingredients:
      - part:C
      - part:F

Final Result:

A + B → C | D + E → F | C + F → ELEVATOR

Creating Larger Tech Trees

Yes, you can create as many steps as you like. Complex Example (Double the steps):

1. A + B = C
2. D + E = F
3. C + F = G
4. G + A = H
5. H + F = ELEVATOR

Configuration:

parts:
  C:
    material: SMOOTH_STONE
  F:
    material: IRON_PRESSURE_PLATE
  G:
    material: POLISHED_ANDESITE
  H:
    material: OBSERVER

recipes:
  part_c:
    type: shapeless
    result: { type: part, id: C }
    ingredients: [ext:A, ext:B]

  part_f:
    type: shapeless
    result: { type: part, id: F }
    ingredients: [ext:D, ext:E]

  part_g:
    type: shapeless
    result: { type: part, id: G }
    ingredients: [part:C, part:F]

  part_h:
    type: shapeless
    result: { type: part, id: H }
    ingredients: [part:G, ext:A]

  elevator_final:
    type: shapeless
    result: { type: elevator }
    ingredients: [part:H, part:F]
