I need to select between 2 different recipe outputs based on a config value. How do I do that? Create dummy item name and register an alias based on the config? How do I register alias? Reflect into ForgeRegistry?

Probably create a custom IRecipe implementation (you can subclass the existing ones).

So you want to have two different outputs for the same recipe?

I did something similar three years ago using the ItemCrafted(not the correct name) event. It allowed me to modify the output ItemStack on the run while it was crafted. Needed to change stuff based on on of the ingredients metadata and damage. Not sure if that's what you want though.

 

If you just want to permanently adjust a crafting recipe on startup using code you could probably replace it using the CraftingManager class. Would be great if someone can confirm that.

 

Edit: How the hell did you answer 3 mins before me Draco? I wrote this in like 20 seconds...

Edit 2: Looks like they made some of the methods in the CraftingManager private. But now there is a RegistryEvent.Register<IRecipe> event that should allow you to do the same.

Okay figured out how to use the awful _factories.json-based system, nvm.
