'''Crafting''' is the way in which [[blocks]] and [[items]] are made in Minetest. To craft something, the player must move items into a crafting grid and then arrange the items into a defined pattern.
 
 
Many additional player created recipes and other crafting grids are available through [[mods]].
 
 
== Crafting basics ==
 
''This section explains the basics of crafting in a very general way. The rules explained here are true for basically all mods.''
 
 
=== Crafting grid and output slot ===
 
To be able to craft anything at all, you need a crafting grid. A crafting grid consists of a number of [[Inventory|inventory]] slots and you can place and move and remove [[Items|items]] from it like you can with an inventory. To craft, the items have to be arranged somehow in the crafting grid (see “Input and output”). Next to a crafting grid there is one output slot, in which the craft appears if you arranged the items in a valid way. Click on this symbol with the left mouse button to make this craft once. The needed items in the crafting grid will be used up. Click on the output slot with the middle mouse button to make this craft up to ten times (depending on how much items are left in the crafting grid). Crafting generally takes no time and you can use the resulting items immediately.
 
 
Crafting grids generally work like inventories. So a crafting grid found in your [[inventory menu]] can be used/abused as an extension of the player inventory.
 
 
You can’t place items on an output slot, however. You can only take items from it.
 
 
[[File:Crafting_grid.png|thumb|300px|The player’s built-in 3×3 crafting grid (left). It’s output slot (right).]]
 
Minetest Game has only one crafting grid. It can be accessed through the inventory menu and it has a size of 3×3 slots.
 
 
Mods and Minetest [[Game|games]] may add several crafting grids in various places, not just the inventory. It’s also possible that the inventory menu does not have a crafting grid.
 
 
=== Input and output ===
 
A crafting recipe consists of at least one input item and exactly one output item. Input items can be either concrete items (for example, [[Wooden Planks]]) or an item that is member of a [[Groups|group]] (for example, the [[:Category:Wood|wood]] group, a group where [[Wooden Planks]] and [[Junglewood Planks]] are members). If a recipe has multiple slots which require the same group, this does not mean that you have to place the same item in all of these slots. See [[#Crafting recipes using groups]] for a detailed example.
 
 
[[Games/Minetest Game|Minetest Game]] and other [[Game|games]] and many mods make extensive use of the group system, understanding it is crucial to craft efficiently.
 
 
=== Using up the items ===
 
Normally, crafting one item removes exactly one item of each slot in the crafting grid.
 
 
A crafting recipe may also replace a item with an item instead. This is currently rarely used in mods. In Minetest Game, using [[Bucket|Lava Bucket]] as [[Smelting|furnace fuel]] does not use up the item, instead it leaves an [[Bucket|Empty Bucket]] in the fuel slot.
 
 
=== Shaped and shapeless recipes ===
 
There are are two kinds of crafting recipes, shaped ones and shapeless ones.
 
 
For a shaped recipe, the items have to be arranged into an exact pattern. This wiki documents these patterns of Minetest Game. If a crafting recipe takes up a smaller rectangle than the crafting grid, it can be moved on any part of the crafting grid. For example, a 2×2 recipe can be arranged on the top left, top right, bottom left or bottom right on a 3×3 crafting grid. If a crafting recipe uses more space than available in the crafting grid, you are unable to craft this item with it. You need a larger one.
 
 
For a shapeless recipe, the necessary items just have to be placed on ''any'' available slots of the crafting grid. Stacking items does not work, however.
 
 
Most crafting recipes of the Minetest Game are shaped recipes. If not noted otherwise, it is assumed that a crafting recipe is shaped. The shapeless recipes of Minetest Game produce [[Bronze Ingot|bronze ingots]], [[Wool|wool]], [[Flour|flour]] and [[Dye|dyes]], respectively.
 
 
== Activities similar to crafting ==
 
[[Smelting]] and [[Repairing|repairing]] are just a slightly different form of crafting, most rules described here apply, too. For smelting, the crafting grid is simply just 1×1. A repairing recipe is always shapeless recipe consisting of two tools of the same kind.
 
 
== Example recipes ==
 
This section contains extensive examples of the basic crafting types. The examples here are all taken from the Minetest Game.
 
=== Shapeless recipes ===
 
[[Bronze Ingot]] is an example for a shapeless recipe. You need one [[Steel Ingot]] and one [[Copper Ingot]]. You can put them anywhere in the crafting grid you want, so the following crafts are all valid:
 
 
{| class="wikitable"
 
|-
 
! scope="row" width="50px"|Name
 
! scope="row" width="140px" |Ingredients
 
! scope="row" width="140px" |Input/Output
 
|-
 
! scope="row"|[[Bronze Ingot]]
 
| [[Steel Ingot]] + [[Copper ingot]]
 
| {{Grid/Craft
 
|A1=Steel Ingot|B1=Copper Ingot
 
|out=Bronze Ingot}}
 
|-
 
! scope="row"|[[Bronze Ingot]]
 
| [[Steel Ingot]] + [[Copper ingot]]
 
| {{Grid/Craft
 
|A1=Steel Ingot|C3=Copper Ingot
 
|out=Bronze Ingot}}
 
|-
 
! scope="row"|[[Bronze Ingot]]
 
| [[Steel Ingot]] + [[Copper ingot]]
 
| {{Grid/Craft
 
|B1=Steel Ingot|A3=Copper Ingot
 
|out=Bronze Ingot}}
 
|}
 
And so on.
 
 
To keep the wiki pages short and simple, in the actual page there is only one of the possible crafts shown.
 
 
=== Repairing recipes ===
 
If you have two worn off Steel Shovels, you can get one repaired one by placing them somewhere into the crafting grid:
 
{| class="wikitable"
 
|-
 
! scope="row" width="50px"|Name
 
! scope="col" width="140px"|Ingredients
 
! scope="col"|Input → Output
 
|-
 
! scope="row"|repaired Steel [[Shovel]]
 
|align="center"|worn off Steel [[Shovel]]s
 
| {{Grid/Craft
 
|A1=Steel_Shovel_slightly_worn_off
 
|A3=Steel_Shovel_heavily_worn_off
 
|out=Steel_Shovel_repaired}}
 
|}
 
 
Note that repairing recipes are also shapeless. Repairing recipes are never explicitly shown in the wiki (except in this example).
 
 
=== Shaped recipes ===
 
These are all valid crafts of a shaped 3×1 crafting recipe:
 
 
{| class="wikitable"
 
|-
 
! scope="row" width="50px"|Name
 
! scope="col" width="140px"|Ingredients
 
! class="unsortable" scope="col"|Input → Output
 
|-
 
! scope="row"|[[Paper]]
 
|align="center"|[[Papyrus]]
 
| {{Grid/Craft
 
|A3=Papyrus
 
|B3=Papyrus
 
|C3=Papyrus
 
|out=Paper}}
 
|-
 
! scope="row"|[[Paper]]
 
|align="center"|[[Papyrus]]
 
| {{Grid/Craft
 
|A2=Papyrus
 
|B2=Papyrus
 
|C2=Papyrus
 
|out=Paper}}
 
|-
 
! scope="row"|[[Paper]]
 
|align="center"|[[Papyrus]]
 
| {{Grid/Craft
 
|A1=Papyrus
 
|B1=Papyrus
 
|C1=Papyrus
 
|out=Paper}}
 
|}
 
 
These crafts are all part of the same recipe. The actual wiki page does not repeat the other two crafts for simplicity’s sake.
 
 
=== Crafting recipes using groups ===
 
A crafting recipe using groups could be represented like this in the wiki:
 
{| class="wikitable"
 
|-
 
! scope="row" width="50px"|Name
 
! scope="col" width="140px"|Ingredients
 
! scope="col"|Input → Output
 
|-
 
! scope="row"|[[Furnace]]
 
|align="center"|[[:Category:Stone|“stone”-grouped items]]
 
| {{Grid/Craft
 
|A1=group_stone|B1=group_stone|C1=group_stone
 
|A2=group_stone|C2=group_stone
 
|A3=group_stone|B3=group_stone|C3=group_stone
 
|out=furnace}}
 
|}
 
 
Note that there is a special icon with a “G” in it. This icon is a placeholder for anything which is part of the “[[:Category:Stone|stone]]” group. So a furnace is build from 8 items from the stone group. [[Cobblestone]] and [[Desert Stone]] are examples for members of this group.
 
 
So you can build a furnace completely out of Cobblestone:
 
{| class="wikitable"
 
|-
 
! scope="row" width="50px"|Name
 
! scope="col" width="140px"|Ingredients
 
! scope="col"|Input → Output
 
|-
 
! scope="row"|[[Furnace]]
 
|align="center"|[[Cobblestone]]s
 
| {{Grid/Craft
 
|A1=cobblestone|B1=cobblestone|C1=cobblestone
 
|A2=cobblestone|C2=cobblestone
 
|A3=cobblestone|B3=cobblestone|C3=cobblestone
 
|out=furnace}}
 
|}
 
 
Or Desert Stone:
 
{| class="wikitable"
 
|-
 
! scope="row" width="50px"|Name
 
! scope="col" width="140px"|Ingredients
 
! scope="col"|Input → Output
 
|-
 
! scope="row"|[[Furnace]]
 
|align="center"|[[Desert Stone]]s
 
| {{Grid/Craft
 
|A1=desert_stone|B1=desert_stone|C1=desert_stone
 
|A2=desert_stone|C2=desert_stone
 
|A3=desert_stone|B3=desert_stone|C3=desert_stone
 
|out=furnace}}
 
|}
 
 
Or both mixed:
 
{| class="wikitable"
 
|-
 
! scope="row" width="50px"|Name
 
! scope="col" width="140px"|Ingredients
 
! scope="col"|Input → Output
 
|-
 
! scope="row"|[[Furnace]]
 
|align="center"|[[Cobblestone]]s + [[Desert Stone]]s
 
| {{Grid/Craft
 
|A1=cobblestone|B1=desert_stone|C1=cobblestone
 
|A2=desert_stone|C2=cobblestone
 
|A3=desert_stone|B3=cobblestone|C3=desert_stone
 
|out=furnace}}
 
|}
 
 
Or everything mixed up:
 
{| class="wikitable"
 
|-
 
! scope="row" width="50px"|Name
 
! scope="col" width="140px"|Ingredients
 
! scope="col"|Input → Output
 
|-
 
! scope="row"|[[Furnace]]
 
|align="center"|[[Stone]]s + [[Desert Stone]]s + [[Cobblestone]]s + [[Desert Stone Brick]] + [[Stone Brick]]s
 
| {{Grid/Craft
 
|A1=stone|B1=desert_stone|C1=stone_brick
 
|A2=cobblestone|C2=cobblestone
 
|A3=desert_stone_brick|B3=stone_brick|C3=cobblestone
 
|out=furnace}}
 
|}
