I'm not quite sure what you mean by this. Sorry I'm a bit of a noob to modding and frankly coding in general.

If you mean are they both items initialized in my mod, yes. None of the involved items are vanilla items or from another mod

I am trying to create a shapeless recipe that uses 2 separate items to create another, but I would like for one of the items in the recipe to be consumed on use, and for the other to not be consumed on use. Similar to how crafting a cake returns 3 empty buckets, but instead of returning 3 buckets I am trying to return my version of a copper ingot. I can create the recipe using the ingot and the other item to spit out the wanted output via my .json file but I cannot figure out what to add to make the ingot not be consumed. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
