Required for Modpack Development
Reputation ranks
Ranks only ever go up; points can drop but your rank stays.
About reputation ranksIt's the new gold standard for modpack development. Changing recipes, adding new items, fluids, blocks, etc., and even creating custom events!
My only issue is that there is very little documentation to do anything more complex than changing recipes manually, but their Discord is very helpful. However, that's still dependent on people getting to you. While the volunteers there are very responsive, it still feels frustrating when you have to ask them for so many small things that should have been documented in the first place.
Still, it's way better than CraftTweaker for events because you don't have to worry about dealing with the arcane nature of ZenScript and the lack of IDE support for it. This is JavaScript, it's easy to log everything out and use an IDE to know what's going on with the code.
