Supplementaries: Functional Decorations and Lighting

guide

Supplementaries fills the gaps in vanilla with functional, decorative blocks that fit a Vanilla+ playstyle. This guide covers the everyday items worth building first.

Lighting

The mod adds a family of sconces that mount decorative light on walls: craft a Cupric Sconce from three iron nuggets and a cupric torch, or an Ender Sconce from an ender torch. The Fire Pit is a larger light and cooking feature, made from five Copper Ingot with either Coal or a Lumisene Bottle.

Handy utility blocks

Faucet — a Stick and four Iron Ingot; pours fluids from a container below.
Crank — a Stick over three Stone; a hand-powered redstone source.
Bubble Blower — five iron (four nuggets and an ingot) for a decorative bubble tool.

Materials and small crafts

Several items feed the rest of the mod: Ash from two soot, smelted into an Ash Brick; Soap, used to clean and reset many items; and Candy from sugar, paper and a honey bottle. Supplementaries is highly configurable, so most blocks can be tuned or toggled to match your world.

The shape of the mod

Supplementaries is 262 pages built on 198 blocks and 64 items, with 262 crafting recipes on 1.21.1. The block-heavy balance tells you what to expect: this is a decoration and utility mod, and almost everything you craft gets placed.

Ten small systems that only exist on 1.21.1

The newer build adds a scattering of tiny recipe categories that are entirely absent from 1.20.1: Add Charges (3 recipes), Antique Book (2), Item Lore (2), Weathered Map (2), and one each for Confetti Dye, Mixing, Smithing Trim, Soap Clearing and Trapped Present.

These are the mod's small delights, and their absence is the most likely reason a feature you have seen elsewhere is missing from your game.

What is the same on both

The main crafting list barely moved — 262 recipes against 263 — and Stonecutting (15), Sus Crafting (3), Haunting, Splashing and Smelting are unchanged. Cutting went from 3 recipes to 6.
