🔧 EnchantOnce — Enchanting & Repair Overhaul

A minimalistic mod that reworks enchanting and repairing: fixed XP costs, enchant extraction, book copying, and full gear duplication — all using vanilla mechanics.

🎯 Who is this mod for?

EnchantOnce is perfect for players who enjoy using enchantments but would prefer to spend less in-game time grinding XP and repeating enchanting rituals. It’s designed for those who value efficiency, clarity, and a smoother experience when working with enchanted gear.

📌 Features

🛠️ Flat Repair Cost

Repairing any damaged item always costs 2 experience levels — no matter how many times it's been repaired.
The "Too Expensive" limitation is removed entirely.

🔄 Repair with Materials

Repair tools and gear using base materials, instead of combining duplicate items.

Item	Repair Material	Amount Repaired
Shield	Any Planks	½ durability
Shears	Iron Ingot	Full durability
Bow, Fishing Rod	String	¼ durability
Crossbow	String	¼ durability
Flint & Steel	Flint	Full durability
Trident	Prismarine Shard	¼ durability
Brush	Feather	¼ durability

➡ Only works if the item is damaged. The material is consumed.

📖 Duplicate Enchanted Books

Copy enchanted books using blank books.

Place one enchanted book in the left slot and up to 4 normal books in the right.
Output: up to 5 copies of the enchanted book (original + up to 4 more).
XP cost depends on the enchantments:
- Calculated from the minimum enchantment cost values.
- Curses are ignored in the cost.
- Total cost = (number of new copies) × (combined cost of enchantments).
- Minimum cost per copy is always 1 level.

This system prevents XP farming via book copying + grindstone trickery.

📚 Extract Enchantments

Move all enchantments from any enchanted item to a single enchanted book.

Place the item in the left anvil slot, and a book in the right.
The item must be completely intact (no damage).
Output is one enchanted book with all enchantments.
The item is destroyed in the process.
XP cost: 1 level.

🧬 Clone Enchanted Items

Create a perfect duplicate of any enchanted item.

Place the enchanted item in the left slot and an unenchanted item of the same type in the right.
Both items must be completely intact (no damage).
Output: a copy with the same enchantments.
XP cost: 25 levels.
