Hi! I've been trying to allow buckets of spring water to be craftable, but while I input the recipe correctly (I think!), the output is always just an empty bucket.

Any idea how I could fix this? Or is it a limitation of the software? Thanks in advance!

The recipe I've been using is 1 golden apple, 1 bucket of water, and 1 torch. A friend suggested it might have something to do with the byproduct of buckets?

Try looking at the line MTRM generated for the recipe you added and see if it it's correct, if not, it may be a limitation of MTRM.

I'm guessing it doesn't properly turn the bucket into a filled bucket because it's missing the NBT tag of the bucket, I've never tried this.

Pardon my noobness, but how can I check that line? Is it in my configs? I don't see a file called mtrm.

MTRM makes a Minetweaker script, it should be in /scripts, but depending on the exact version, it may be in a subfolder (I don't remember the name, but it's likely MTRM or minetweakerrecipemaker).

Open that file and look for a line that looks like the right recipe, if you have no idea what it should look like, you can put use /mtrm to put in the recipe and look at the screen, if I recall correctly, it shows you the entire line somewhere on screen for debugging purposes. (It's been a long time since I've properly worked on this project though, so It's possible that was only in debug builds.)

Thank you so much!

Yeah, this is the line in question:

recipes.addShaped(forge:bucketfilled, [[minecraft:golden_apple], [minecraft:water_bucket], [minecraft:torch]]);

I'm assuming that means that it's a software limitation, since it seems unable to recognize WHAT the bucket is filled with? Ah well. Thank you very much for your help!

The command worked perfectly, I'm restarting now to see if it worked. Thanks again for all your help!

Edit: It worked! You're awesome, thank you so much for walking me through this.
