Spellcaster's Archives

A Minecraft 1.12.2 Forge mod that adds a "Spellcaster's Archives" block: a bottomless, capability-aware storage for Electroblob's Wizardry spell books. It integrates with hoppers/pipes/AE2/etc and provides an in-game GUI for browsing and extracting books.

Features

• Bottomless Spells storage (up to Max Int per spell; overflow is always voided)
• Item insertion/extraction for automation with stable slot order
• Spells or identification scrolls can be manually inserted via right-clicking on the block with the item
• Spells can be manually extracted by left-clicking on their spine in the GUI (1 on click, 16 on shift-click)
• Undiscovered spells can be discovered by right-clicking on their spine (as long as you have identification scrolls left; can be disabled in config)
• Content is preserved when broken or when spell mods are removed/added (removed spells are lost, but others remain unaffected)
• Configurable GUI with paging (configuration through mod config, with config file hot-reloading)
  • Left panel: element-colored spines arranged in shelves by tier
  • Right panel: details for the hovered book
    • Spell name/description (or glyph if undiscovered)
    • Element icon/name, cost/cooldown/charge (? if undiscovered)
    • Instructions about click controls
    • Spell icon (if discovered)

• Minecraft 1.12.2
