[hidden slate]

what version are you in

[south rain]

1.21.4

[hidden slate]

then you just use the tag in place of an item id

[south rain]

haw ._.

i see where the output says id but the input items is just a list

or a string

[hidden slate]

the string in question is an item id or an item tag

and for list it would be a list of item ids (tags aren't allowed in that case)

[south rain]

so if i wanted to make any flower craftable into seeds what would i change here

{
"type": "minecraft:crafting_shapeless",
"ingredients": [
[
"minecraft:poppy"
]
],
"result": {
"id": "minecraft:wheat_seeds",
"count": 1
}
}

[hidden slate]

the item id minecraft:poppy under the ingredients field

actually, if you want it to be a tag instead you'd have to change it from:

    [
      "minecraft:poppy"
    ]
  ]```
to:
```  "ingredients": [
      "#minecraft:flowers"
  ]```
since as i mentioned you aren't allowed to use item tags in an ingredient list, which is what you have there

[south rain]

can i ask something else?

[hidden slate]

don't ask to ask, just ask.

[south rain]

how would i reference a water bottle

i assume its under minecraft:potion

[hidden slate]

it is under that id yes, which unfortunately means you can't actually use a water bottle specifically as an ingredient without also allowing every other type of potion to be used

[south rain]

thanks

can i add a custom potion directly as the result or would i have to use a knowledge book
