Extended Crafts

This datapack adds many useful recipes for player convenience: block dyeing and light block crafting.


🎨 Block Dyeing

Recolor already dyed blocks to another color without having to craft them again!

How It Works

Surround 8 dyed blocks with the desired dye in the center:

[Block] [Block] [Block]
[Block] [Dye] [Block]
[Block] [Block] [Block]

Result: 8 blocks of the new color

Supported Blocks

Block TypeExample
GlassAny stained glass → another color
Glass PanesAny stained panes → another color
TerracottaAny stained terracotta → another color
CandlesAny colored candles → another color
Tip

This is especially useful when you've accumulated many blocks of one color but need another!
