SmartCraft
activeAn automated crafting block with its own 54-slot GUI, live recipe detection, full Hopper automation, and a redstone kill-switch — turn any vanilla recipe into a self-running production line.
Description:
SmartCraft adds a placeable block that crafts items for you. Just fill it with ingredients and it automatically makes the item — no need to stand at a crafting table.
It plugs straight into Hopper-based item pipelines: feed raw materials in from above or the side, and pull finished products out from below, all while staying fully persistent across server restarts.
What the plugin does exactly:
Place a SmartCraft Block, right-click it, drop one sample item in the center slot to tell it what to craft, then fill the 18 input slots with ingredients. Every second, it checks whether the input slots satisfy the recipe, consumes the ingredients, and drops the result into one of the 18 output slots — automatically, forever, with no player interaction needed after setup.
Key Features:
- ➤ Custom 54-slot GUI: 18 input slots, 1 target-recipe slot, 18 output slots
- ➤ Automatic recipe detection for any vanilla Shaped or Shapeless recipe
- ➤ Full Hopper automation — hoppers above/beside feed the input, a hopper below pulls the output
- ➤ Redstone lock — powering the block (lever, redstone dust, button) pauses crafting instantly, just like a powered Hopper
- ➤ Craftable at a vanilla crafting table — no commands required to obtain one
- ➤ Drops all stored contents (input + output + target item) when broken — nothing is lost
- ➤ Fully persistent — every crafter, its inventory, and its settings survive a server restart
