This mod forces players to spend time crafting (like MITE). A process bar will overlay the origin craft table GUI to indicate the crafting process.

1.21-forge: Beta version, as Forge is also in beta version.
1.20-forge: Released.
1.20-fabric: Released.
1.19-forge: Released. no longer update unless bug fixes.
1.18-forge: Released. no longer update unless bug fixes.

Add new workbench/tool station with time consuming crafting: https://github.com/jingshenSN2/CraftTakesTime/wiki/Customizing-Crafting-Stations-in-Craft-Takes-Time
I'm back on this project and started from forge 1.19.4 with a new mechanism with more flexibility and compatibility. Later there will be a 1.20/1.21 version and backport to 1.12.2 (already there).

Based on Forge/Fabric
Thank Avernite's Minecraft is too easy 1.6.4 and Kelvin's MITE-reborn 1.16.4!
