is it possible to somehow fill the library of alexandria using sfm
Teamy — 12:53 AM
yes
if you have a separate library of alexandria from which to draw books
input from library_a
output to library_b

cant use it to directly enchant books?
Teamy — 12:53 AM
don't think so
can only disenchant with anvils lol
though that does seem like an opportunity for funzies
could add a way to enchant stuff by dropping an item and the book and dropping an anvil on both lol

Idea

Currently, SFM adds disenchanting functionality through falling anvils.
SFM 4.26.0 will add block tags to determine what blocks must the anvil land on to perform disenchanting, xp gooping, and printing press form forming.

Given that SFM can take enchantments off of stuff, it would be nice if it also provided a way to apply enchantments to items in an automatable way.

This could again be done through anvils because why not lol.

Proposal:

1. Drop pickaxe on a block of gold
2. Drop a "Fortune X" book on the same block of gold
3. Place an anvil block in the world at least one block above the air above the block of gold such that it falls down
4. The anvil lands on the items and block of gold, applying the enchantment

Considerations:

• Combining two enchanted books into one is a separate implementation from applying an enchantment to an item. Both operations should be supported.
• It would be nice to provide a way that this can be performed without consuming the block landed upon
• I want to let you put any enchantment on any item without adhering to the usual restrictions
  • E.g., atomic disassembler (which traditionally doesn't support enchanting) with Fortune V
  • Gotta be configurable for pack authors lol

New blocks:

• enchantologia

xxx
xyx
xxx

x = sfm:experience_goop
y = minecraft:bookshelf or #bookshelf if exists

New block tags:

SuperFactoryManager/src/main/java/ca/teamdman/sfm/common/registry/SFMBlockTags.java

Lines 8 to 16 in 75a6b1d

	/// See also: {@link ca.teamdman.sfm.datagen.SFMBlockTagsDatagen}
	public class SFMBlockTags {
	/// What the anvil must land on for disenchanting to work, traditionally obsidian
	public static final TagKey<Block> ANVIL_DISENCHANTING = BlockTags.create(
	SFMResourceLocation.fromSFMPath("anvil_disenchanting"));
	/// What the anvil must land on to turn the block into a form, traditionally a metal block
	public static final TagKey<Block> ANVIL_PRINTING_PRESS_FORMING = BlockTags.create(
	SFMResourceLocation.fromSFMPath("anvil_printing_press_forming"));

Add:

• anvil_enchanting_consumed for minecraft:block_of_gold
• anvil_enchanting_not_consumed for sfm:enchantologia
• anvil_enchanting_unrestricted for sfm:enchantologia

Outcome

• Players can now automate the application of enchantments to items
• Players can now automate the combination of enchanted books
• Players can now apply any enchantment to any item
  • Extremely easy for pack authors to control access to this behaviour through block tags, making it easier or harder to obtain
