Replace the ore dictionary with a general dictionary.

No, the Ore dictionary is a general dictionary for String -> ItemStack[]

The 'Ore' is just legacy name and there is no real reason to change it. What would we call it? 'GeneralDictionairy' 'ItemDictionary', 'Dictionary'?

Why break code for something as stupid as a cosmetic name change?

I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated.

Not just cosmetic, but also encouraging the use of it for non-ore things. It's not the best reason, but I think it's worthwhile.

 

I don't have a suggestion for what it could be renamed to though.

The answer to this is a resounding 'No, its pointless'

Modders should use it for whatever they need. They should NOT abuse it though.

It's a simple String -> ItemStack[] dictionary.

Nothing more, it doesn't care what those strings or stacks are.
