I'm not sure if the issue tracker is the best place to mention this... (if not, I apologize)

I did not want to use JEI in my modpack.

Instead, I wanted to use the vanilla recipe book to show the recipes for the research book and the research table. I also wanted the recipes to unlock the same way the vanilla recipes do (only showing up after a previous item is crafted).

So, I created a CraftTweaker (ver 1.12.2) script to do it. This script works in single-player and multi-player

• Adds the research book recipe once a player crafts paper.
• Adds the research table recipe once a player crafts the research book.
