Process Recipes

Process recipes define what a formed machine does. A recipe names the structure it belongs to, how long it runs, what it consumes, and what it outputs.

Recipes are loaded from Masterful Machinery’s custom process directory (not Minecraft’s recipes/ directory):

data/<namespace>/mm/processes/<path>.json

The recipe ID is the datapack namespace and path relative to mm/processes. The root recipe object has no type field: the loader selects the recipe model from this directory. type fields belong on input entries, output entries, and conditions, where they select the entry/condition parser.

Minimal shape

{
  "structureId": "mypack:my_structure",
  "ticks": 60,
  "inputs": [],
  "outputs": []
}
Field Meaning
structureId ID of the structure that can run this recipe.
ticks Recipe duration in game ticks. 20 ticks = 1 second.
inputs List of input entries, usually mm:input/consume.
outputs List of output entries, usually mm:output/simple.
conditions Optional list of requirements such as dimension, biome, time, weather, height, redstone, or structure tier. All listed conditions must pass.
parallelProcessing Optional per-recipe parallel-processing override.
structureIds Optional additional structure IDs that can run this recipe. The primary structure remains structureId.
mode Optional recipe mode: fixed (default) or flex. Flex recipes require at least one mm:input/flex entry.
flex_cost Optional override for the common flex-recipe input cost scaling. Only valid with mode: "flex".

Parallel processing

{
  "structureId": "mypack:my_structure",
  "ticks": 100,
  "parallelProcessing": true,
  "inputs": [],
  "outputs": []
}

Recipe-level parallelProcessing overrides the structure/controller/global default for that recipe.

Entry options

Input and output entries support:

"chance": 0.25,
"per_tick": true
Field Default Meaning
chance 1.0 Random chance from 0.0 to 1.0.
per_tick false When true, the ingredient is consumed or produced during recipe ticks instead of once at completion.
