Requirements


Installation

  • Download the appropriate JAR from either Modrinth or CurseForge and put it in .minecraft/mods folder.
  • For multiplayer, the mod must be installed on all clients and server side.

Configuration

  • File Location: .minecraft/config/potion-cauldron.json
  • On Fabric/Quilt, GUI is available through Mod Menu
  • Changing config doesn't require restarting your game (or server).
    • On single player and LAN hosted worlds:
      • When using the GUI, clicking the "Save" button will sync with all connected clients.
      • When not using the GUI, change the JSON file and use the command "/potioncauldron config reload".
    • On dedicated servers, after changing the config:
      • Use the "/potioncauldron config reload" command on the server console.
      • OP players can also use the above command in-game.
  • Available configuration options :
    • Evaporate if different potions or liquids are mixed
      • ON: If a player tries to put a different potion or liquid (water or lava) in a potion cauldron, the liquids from both the cauldron and the hand will evaporate and disappear.
      • OFF: Item in hand is used normally.
    • Allow merging different types of the same potion
      • ON: Allows merging normal, splash and lingering variants of the same potion. Taking back the potion will give whatever type was put in last.
      • OFF: Applies whatever is set in Evaporate if different potions are mixed option.
      • It's how it works in Bedrock edition. For instance, you can put a Potion of Fire Resistance, Splash Potion of Fire Resistance and a Lingering Potion of Fire Resistance in the same cauldron. Picking up would give back 3 bottles of Lingering Potion of Fire Resistance.
    • Apply potion effects to entities standing inside
    • Allow filling with water drips from rain and dripstone
    • Allow creating tipped arrows and the maximum number of arrows for each level
    • Generate in swamp huts
      • ON: When a swamp hut (witch hut) is generated, a cauldron filled with a random potion, type and level will be generated instead of an empty one.
      • OFF: Generates with an empty vanilla cauldron.
      • The chances of the generated random potion, its type and level can be configured.

Compatibility with other mods

  • Compatible with Sodium and and its Forge ports.
  • Should be compatible with mods that modify vanilla cauldron behavior.
  • Should be compatible with modded potions that are added using the vanilla potion registry.
  • May not be compatible with custom potion systems.
