Spark & Strike

Transform Minecraft smithing into a tactile, in-world physical craft. No 2D inventory grids. No abstract progress bars. Place your ingots directly onto the physical anvil surface, grab your hammer or chisel, and swing away to forge blades, refine metals, and cut gems.

Features

• 100% In-World Diegetic Interaction: Powered by vanilla 1.21 Display and Interaction entities. Items rest physically on the anvil face with real-time visual wobble and elevation on strike.
• Dynamic Strike Harmonics: Every hammer blow increases pitch dynamically from dull thud to resonant finish.
• Modern Data Components: Zero legacy NBT. Full multiplayer synchronization via Netty binary stream codecs and Mojang DFU codecs.
• Automation Ready: Full support for hoppers, droppers, and water streams. Hook up an overhead dropper or hopper line and hold left-click to mass-produce equipment without ever touching a GUI.
• Atomic World Safety: Breaking the workstation mid-craft cleanly drops all active workpieces and despawns preview entities with zero orphan entity leaks.

How It Works

1. Place Workpiece: Right-click the anvil top with a valid ingredient (e.g., Iron Ingot or Amethyst Shard).
2. Work the Metal: Strike the anvil with the appropriate tool:
   • Pickaxes / Hammers: Ingot smithing (Iron Ingot → 3 strikes → Iron Sword)
   • Shears / Chisels: Gem cutting (Amethyst Shard → 2 strikes → Diamond)
3. Mass Production Automation:
   • Point a Hopper into the top or side to auto-load raw ingots (unworked items cannot be extracted from below).
   • Place a Dropper overhead on a redstone clock to continuously feed materials.
   • Finished items automatically pop out into your collection hopper below!
