Improved Grindstone

Lightweight Paper 1.21.11 plugin that reroutes grindstone disenchantments into books, with optional cross-material transfer support.

Features

• Slot 0: enchanted source item.

• Slot 1 can be either:

  • A normal book (optionally can be a special book) to extract enchantments into an enchanted book.
  • A compatible target item (same archetype, different material allowed) to transfer enchantments directly.

• Extraction keeps the source item (disenchanted) and gives an enchanted book with removed enchants.

• Transfer keeps the source item (disenchanted) and returns the target item with transferred enchants.

• Optional cursed-enchantment capture toggle.

• Separate XP-cost toggles for extraction and transfer.

• Separate configurable XP percentages (default 50%) based on estimated enchanting-table cost of the moved enchants.

• Commands:

  • /improvedgrindstone toggle
  • /improvedgrindstone status
  • /improvedgrindstone cursed
  • /improvedgrindstone xp
  • /improvedgrindstone transfer
  • /improvedgrindstone transferxp
  • /improvedgrindstone specialbook
