Recipe Hider


A crafting-menu-style icon panel for hiding recipes you no longer hand-craft. Toggle the panel with the shortcut-bar button (bottom right) or CONTROL + SHIFT + H, then click recipe icons to hide/show them. Hidden recipes disappear from the crafting menu exactly like un-researched ones; assemblers already running them are unaffected. The hidden list is stored in the save, so it syncs automatically to everyone in multiplayer.

Version: 0.4.0
Date: 2026-08-20
  Features:
    - Recipe icons now show the full vanilla recipe tooltip (ingredients, products, crafting time), making same-icon recipe variants easy to tell apart. Thanks to pacak for the suggestion.
    - Item-group tabs replaced with vanilla-crafting-menu-style icon buttons that wrap into multiple rows, so the window stays narrow no matter how many groups a modpack adds. Thanks to pacak for the report.
  Bugfixes:
    - The hidden list is re-asserted every time the panel opens, self-healing recipes that other mods re-enabled without firing any event. Thanks to pacak for the report.
