⬇ Download on Modrinth
This datapack adds a simple sifting mechanic to Minecraft for gravel, combining a wooden bowl with 2 gravel to sift it and obtain gravel; a sifting sound plays with each attempt to give it that extra bit of immersion. Crafting placement does not matter!
⚠️ Important ⚠️
Due to limitations in how Minecraft datapacks handle crafting recipes, there is a known quirk when shift-click crafting large quantities:
If you shift + click to craft a large batch using multiple bowls, the recipe will discard the extra bowls and only return 1 bowl (though, you still will receive the appropriate amount of gravel) ,losing extra bowls if you're not careful.
You can still place multiple bowls into the crafting grid and rapidly left-click to craft one at a time, avoiding the bowl-loss issue and lets you sift quickly.
