Experimental support for materials from other mods.

What Should Be Added or Changed?
If a gear is found in another mod that is created from the same type of material and has a recipe similar to vanilla, then it will be added to the silent gear materials table. The material characteristics will be based on the properties and characteristics of the equipment from this mod.
(Or at least add the ability to manually select the material to be included in the table using a convenient in-game interface, without having to search for the necessary configuration files.)
Why Should This Be Done?
If this task is not too difficult, it will allow to diversify the experience even more.
If there is a bar/ingot in the name of the material, it is most likely metal. If there are planks in the name, it is a wooden material. If it is a block, it is most likely a stone. If it's an item, it's most likely a gem.
Why was this issue closed? It can be reopened if you closed it accidentally.
Okay. This is definitely an interesting idea. Getting the stats from the tools would be simple enough. Scanning the recipes is doable, but might be too expensive to do every time materials are loaded. So perhaps I could add a command that generates a data pack instead?
Yes, or you can scan one time and save the results in an additional expandable table for the next loads if possible. If the list of mods does not change, then the cache of materials will remain the same. The remaining mods can be marked as scanned so as not to repeat this procedure.
Perhaps it will be a little better than creating a datapack for each generated world.
I know this is nearly a year old, but I love the idea of a command to generate a datapack for potential materials in a pack.
I am not well versed in how this could be optimized in the future, but I will be glad if it is added in any form in the early stages. It confuses me that perhaps because of my comments, Silent has lost the desire to do this at that time
