More Stick Variants (MStV)
This mod solves an important crafting problem in Minecraft. Everyone knows that planks exist in all wood types, but what to do when a recipe requires only sticks? This is exactly the task that More Stick Variants addresses.
Main Concept
The mod serves as a foundation for other mods in the "More X Variants" series that use sticks as the main crafting ingredient. Now all variant mods requiring sticks in recipes will be based on this mod.
Existing and Planned MStV+ Mods
Already Available:
- More Armor Stand Variants
- More (Fishing) Rod Variants
- More Torch Variants
- Nemo's More Ladder Variants
- More Tool Variants
- More (Item/Painting) Frame Variants
- More Weapon Variants

- and others

Compatibility with Other Mods
Vanilla Recipes
The mod updates all recipes using sticks so that all variant sticks can be used. This especially applies to fences, fence gates, and signs, which now use only the appropriate stick types.

Compatibility with Other Variant Mods
All variant mods including sticks in crafting ingredients (for example, More Grindstone Variants) are fully compatible with More Stick Variants.
Nemo's Campfires
Although not an "MStV+" series mod, Nemo's Campfires is fully compatible with More Stick Variants and essentially represents what a More Campfire Variants mod would have looked like.
Solving Compatibility Issues
Problem with Mods Adding New Wood Types
Unfortunately, the vanilla stick crafting recipe must be overridden for the variants to function. Usually mods add their wood types to the vanilla recipe, which creates a conflict.
Solution: More Compatibility Variants
To solve this problem, there are datapacks/mods called "More Compatibility Variants" that resolve this issue across all "More X Variants" series mods.
Available Compatibility Options:
- Biomes o' Plenty
- [Let's Do] Meadow, (Nether)Vinery, Beachparty and Blooming Nature
- Nature's Spirit
- Oh The Biomes We've Gone
Important Changes
- The vanilla stick is now considered the Oak Stick
- The role of the Bamboo Stick is performed by the bamboo item itself
