Universal Dyeing

🎨 Universal Dyeing (Vanilla+)
- Have you ever crafted a stack of Red Glass only to realize Blue would look better? Or found a Pink Bed in a village when your base is themed Green? Universal Dyeing fixes one of Minecraft’s most frustrating limitations by allowing you to re-color almost any dyed block or item directly in your crafting grid. - This datapack is designed to feel like a feature Mojang forgot to add. It’s lightweight, survival-friendly, and perfect for builders who change their minds!
✨ Key Features
- Shapeless Re-dyeing: Simply place any colored item + a new dye in your crafting grid to change its color. - 100% Performance Friendly: Uses the native 1.21.1 recipe system.
