Better Enchantment Boosting

NOTICE: Future versions of this mod will no longer be uploaded here and will only be available on Modrinth

Incorporating enchanting tables into your build can sometimes be difficult due to how restrictive bookshelf placement is. This mod relaxes those restrictions so that you can fit your bookshelves into a greater variety of spaces. Note that this mod is required on the client and the server.

Features:

You can now place bookshelves up to 3 blocks away horizontally from the enchanting table and up to 1 block below or 2 blocks above the enchanting table.

- There must still be air between the table and the bookshelf, but it does not need to be a straight line.

- Search area is configurable

Candles can be used to boost enchantment tables (disable by default)

- The enchantment power per individual candle can also be configured.

Q&A

Q) Can you port this to [modloader]/[previous game version]?

A) No, but the license enables you to do it yourself.

Q) When is the next update for coming out?

A) I try to avoid giving out ETA's as I don't stick to a regular schedule when modding.

Q) Can you add [insert feature here]?

A) I originally created this for my "vanilla" playthrough as the bookshelf layout vanilla enforces by default wouldn't work with a build idea I had so I would rather keep the mod limited to that scope; candle boosting was the only thing added outside of that scope and even that's disabled by default.

Incorporating enchanting tables into your build can sometimes be difficult due to how restrictive bookshelf placement is. Better Enchantment Boosting relaxes those restrictions a little to allow for greater flexibility when designing your enchanting area.

Enchantment Boosting:

By default, you can now place bookshelves 3 blocks away horizontally, 2 blocks above, and 1 block below the enchanting table, but this can be changed in the config. Individual candles can now provide 1/4 enchantment power (4 in a block provides 1) including candles on a cake. Chiseled bookshelves now provide 1/6 per filled slot. For comparison, a vanilla bookshelf provides 1 power.

Enchantment Influencing:

Enchanted books placed in a chiseled bookshelf can influence the enchanting table, increasing the likelihood to roll that enchantment based on the total power to the table (max 30) and the item's enchantability. Using a book with a higher level will also increase the maximum level that the table can roll. This feature can be enabled in the config, along with options for treasure enchants and curses to influence the table.

Q&A:

Q) Can you port this to other loaders/previous Minecraft versions?
A) No, I would rather avoid working on multiple codebases for the same mod.

Q) When is the next update coming out?
A) I don't give ETAs as I don't stick to a regular schedule when modding.

Q) Can you add x/y/z?
A) If I feel like adding x/y/z is worth my time and fits the mod.
