Additional Information:

Potion Usage:

• Crafted potions generally fall into four categories: Consumables, Throwables, Applicables, and Placeables.

• Consumables are drank like normal potions, and add to a shared duration pool.

• Throwables are thrown with the Attack key, and usually break the bottle.
• Applicables are applied by use in the inventory (or by Using in the mainhand while holding a valid offhand item).

• Placeables are placed on solid blocks by Using them.

• Some potions may fall into multiple categories.

• Most potions have vanilla effects attached to them in case the effect handler breaks.

Known Issues:

• Crafting doesn't play well with creative mode.
