About this Mod
A datapack/mod by YolkaJess
Potions to scale yourself and other mobs
This datapack/mod adds survival-friendly craftable potions to scale yourself and other entities (mobs and armor stands), ranging from minimum and maximum sizes allowed by the game.
Changing your own scale will also change jump strength, step height, safe fall distance, block interaction range, entity interaction range, and movement speed. Splashing mobs with potions will only change their size.

DwarfsAndGiants.zip/data/dwarfsandgiants/recipe/[Potion name]
Then use text editor and recipe generator to modify it.
