Crafting stages — 2026-05-09

Thanks to benio1394, a new feature is now available in Border Quest : the crafting stages !

Added

• Recipe locking: Lock specific item recipes behind configurable stages. Each stage has an unlockRecipes list. Recipes are cumulative — at stage N, all recipes from stages 0 through N are unlocked. Covers crafting table, player inventory (2×2), furnace/blast furnace/smoker, and recipe book.
• Dynamic versioning: Version is now set via git tags (vX.Y.Z). Local builds use the gradle.properties fallback.
• Separate branches per Minecraft version: develop (main development), 1.21.11 (stable releases), plus future version branches.
• CI workflows:
  • build.yml — compiles on every push/PR (all branches, no release).
  • release.yml — triggered by tags v*; builds, creates a GitHub Release, and publishes to Modrinth automatically.
• JAR naming: Includes both the mod version and the Minecraft version (border-quest-<mcversion>-<version>.jar).
• AGENTS.md — instruction file for AI agents working in this repo.

Changed

• Build system: Replaced build.bat with direct gradlew.bat calls in CI. Removed build.bat and install.bat.
• Documentation: README updated with build instructions, branch strategy, and recipe locking documentation.
