Features
- XP costs are eliminated by default(recipes can be configured to use xp in versions 1.1.1 and later), instead you will have to use wide array of items provided by vanilla game
- Enchanting system now is discovery based. You need to obtain enchanted books first and right click them to learn new enchantments(As of version 1.0.6 this can be disabled in config)
- Once enchantment learned you can enchant items and books with it
- Enchantments applied to items can be leveled up at enchanting table at any time
- Optionally enchantments leveling can be enabled which will require you to obtain books with higher enchantments levels to be able to upgrade to them
- You can apply as many enchantments to item as configuration allows at any time. That means you don't need to fully enchant your item in one go
- Optionally curse amplification feature can be enabled to allow for intentional curse application to items. Curses will increase enchantments limit per item
- Item enchanting and combining through anvil has been re-enabled as of version 1.2.0
- Enchantment recipes are data driven and can be customized through data-packs at any time
- Materials override feature allows to customize enchantability of materials or individual items
