Description
📜 EnchantLimiter
EnchantLimiter is a Forge mod that introduces a point-based enchantment capacity system to Minecraft.
Instead of stacking unlimited enchantments, each item has a limited enchantment point budget, making enchanting more balanced, predictable, and configurable — especially for servers and modpacks.
🔮 How It Works
- Every item has a maximum enchantment point capacity
- Each enchantment consumes a configurable number of points per level
- Enchantments can only be applied while capacity remains
- Once the limit is reached, no further enchantments can be added
This system encourages meaningful choices instead of infinite enchant stacking.
⚙️ Core Features
✨ Enchantment Point System
- Fully configurable enchantment point costs
- Supports negative point costs (e.g. curses that increase capacity)
- Works consistently across enchanting tables and anvils
⚒️ Improved Anvil Behavior
EnchantLimiter ensures safe and predictable anvil behavior:
- Enchanted books are partially applied if only limited capacity remains
- Excess enchantment levels are discarded instead of exceeding the cap
- Prevents overpowered items and exploit stacking
Example:
- Sword (0/20) + Book (cost 20) → applied fully
- Sword (0/20) + Book (cost 30) → trimmed to 20
- Sword (19/20) + Unbreaking V → only 1 level applied
🔮 Crystal Items (New in 3.0.2)
Version 3.0.2 introduces crystal items that can increase an item’s enchantment point capacity.
Available crystals:
- Common Crystal → +1 point
- Uncommon Crystal → +3 points
- Rare Crystal → +5 points
- Legendary Crystal → +10 points
- Fully configurable via server config
- Can be disabled or blacklisted individually
- Shaped crafting recipes included
🎨 Creative Tab & Tooltips
- Added a custom creative tab (Enchantment Table icon)
- Crystal items are grouped and easy to find
Enchantment point tooltips are shown only on relevant items:
- Swords, tools, armor
- Shield, bow, crossbow, trident
- Prevents tooltip clutter on unrelated items
🌐 Server-Friendly Configuration
- All configuration is server-side
- Clients automatically respect server rules
- Ideal for multiplayer servers and modpacks
New crystals config section allows:
- Enabling/disabling crystals
- Custom point values
- Crystal blacklist
🛠️ Stability & Fixes (3.0.2)
This update also improves internal stability:
- Fixed anvil allowing unlimited enchanted book stacking
- Prevented enchantments from bypassing capacity via direct enchant calls
- Removed problematic mixins that caused build or mapping issues
- Replaced unsafe injections with robust event handling
🎯 Intended Use
EnchantLimiter is ideal for:
- Server owners who want controlled enchantment power
- Modpack creators balancing progression
- Players looking for deeper, rule-based enchanting
