make some feature dependent on tags

kacho_fugetsu

I’m trying to add some custom features to my modpack. Like back in the 1.7.10 and 1.12 era, I’d like to use some Botania materials as Tinkers’ Construct tool materials or modifiers.

However, I’ve noticed that some features—such as Mana Mending, Elementium’s pixie summon effect, and Terrasteel’s mana burst/beam effects—they are not dased on tags.

If some of these features could be changed to rely on tags, it would make it much easier to develop or customize content using datapacks

First off: 1.20.1 Botania will not be receiving such significant changes anymore. The best you can hope for is the 1.21.1 release, whenever that will happen.

But as for your specific examples:

"Mana Mending" is on the list of features to potentially be moved to item components eventually, but I'm not sure if that will be a 1.21.1 feature already.
Terrablade damage burst will very likely stay hard-coded for now.
Pixie spawn chance already is an item data component in 1.21.1 that increases a player attribute. It works on any equipped item, be it on armor, in the main hand, or a trinket slot.

I don't quite see how tags would play into these features. They all have a reasonable variety of parameters that need to be specified, while tags are merely a boolean on/off switch.
