With wands, spellbooks, and obviously spells to cast, you can harness the power of mana to create magical items and will soon even be able to defeat mystical mobs.

I REALLY like the Advancement system, helped guide me because I didn't read anything beforehand (i like going in blind first) and finding the flowers was very satisfying. Took me a minute to figure out the magical crafting table recipe and the wand but it was self explanatory and logical when I messed with it. Very clean and beginner friendly to get started, Love the beginning of the pack.
It was less self explanatory when trying to mix a spellbook with something else (the cores were a very good find but the recipes itself was quite unpredictable)
Only issues I ran into was...
-The mana bar disappeared after a little bit (when i first got my wand), didn't know how to bring it back but it did eventually return.
-I couldn't locate any Magic Flowers outside of Plains/Oak Forest biomes (may be intentional, if so I think it's a good balance)
-Crafting spell books was quite random to me and it absorbed my enchanted books when I was testing out wand crafting. I was also able to enchant the spellbook but I may just be big dumby with that part xD. I recommend some sort of nudge in the direction on what to combine the spellbook with specifically. Maybe an idea could be a Magic Encyclopedia to craft that has a hint at how to craft the spells?
Overall this was a VERY fleshed out and great pack that I can see myself adding with some friends. Genuinely a ton of fun and feels balanced. the /Triggers were a good touch too.
Yea, I agree, there currently aren't really any ways to figure out how to obtain some stuff without using the wiki so an ingame guidebook (not sure wether it will just be hints like you suggested or just the plain recipes (although i agree the later would be a lot more boring lol))
Not sure why the mana bar dissapeared for you, that never happened for me during testing... I'll still take a look at it again once i get the chance to! Did you use any other datapacks or mods during playing? That information would really help me catch the issue :)
Oh yea, i completely forgot to mention that in the description (and wiki), magical flowers are only intended to spawn in forests for balancing (they currently just spawn in plain forests because i forgot to disable that after testing lol)
Uh yea, enchanting the spellbooks is not an intended feature but there is not really any way to fix it at this point in time due to how they work internally
Again, thank you for the feedback (and taking the time to write it all down), I'll take all of that into consideration when working on further updates :)
