Pluto's Drinks API
A small little API Mod for the Pluto's Drinks Series
About this Mod
Pluto's Drinks API (or PDAPI for short) is a (not so) simple API mod for the Pluto's Drinks Series that adds customizable drinks.
Features
While this is an API mod, it does add some Runtime features into the game, including:
- A Drink Workstation block for adding ingredients into drinks (Useless without another Drink mod)
/drinkcommand for setting/retrieving amount of caffeine (and other chemicals) in players- Several built-in drink additions (list can be found on the wiki) and the ability to create custom drink additions using datapacks
Heads Up
While you are free to use this in your own projects, this API is still in Beta and I am still developing the Pluto's Drinks Series, meaning I will often rewrite and fiddle around with various parts of the code thus causing several breaking changes in minor versions of the mod.
