Alpha Stage
The project is in Alpha sage, it means that it's unstable, missing a lot of the planned content and will have major changes on how it works through the development.
For a more stable alternative, see Lexicon.
Book o' Knowlogy
This mod adds the Book 'o Knowlogy, that shows the information from the Minecraft Wiki, that takes in consideration the game's progression by unlocking pages as the player completes achievements.
It's meant to be a way of showing a lot information, without overwhelming the player with walls of text or giant list of items right from the start of the game, but still making the rich documentation from a wiki to be available when useful.
Name
Based on the Knowledge Book that teaches (or unlocks) recipes to the player and the Host of Knowledge from Minecraft: Legends, the Know+-logy book is the study of that knowledge, that shows more than just recipes.
Lore
Created by The Host of Knowledge, this magical artifact is able to acquire knowledge from it's environment end share it with who reads it.
Extensibility
The content is added through resourcepacks that comes with the mod, and are divided by game updates. So anyone can expand it with a resourcepack that adds or modify pages and categories.
Questions
How do I Get the Book?
- You will receive one by placing a crafting table on the floor for the first time (triggers an achievement);
- It's craftable with a Book and a Bottle o' Enchanting in any shape;
- Can be found in the Tools and Utilities Creative mode tab;
- Or via the command
/give @s knowlogy:knowlogy_book
.
Another Recipe Viewer?
No, the focus is to show how the items are connected, with explanations on how the gameplay mechanics work.
It's actually recommended to be used with mods like EMI and JEI that will automatically show recipes that would have to be added manually in the book.
