Description
ExecutableGems is an add-on for ExecutableItems. It adds gems that players socket into their weapons, armour, tools and bows. Each gem gives its item a new power, levels up as it is used, and can combine with other gems into a runeword.
A gem is one YAML file. Its effects are ordinary ExecutableItems activators, so anything an ExecutableItem can do, a gem can do too. If you already know ExecutableItems, you already know how to write a gem.
It works on vanilla items and on ExecutableItems items, and it needs no client mod.
What you get
| 37 gems in 7 categories | Weapon runes, armour wards, tool gems, bow gems, supports, relics and real enchantments. See the list of gems. |
| 12 runewords | Socket the right gems in the right order and the item awakens a new power. See the runewords. |
| The Gem Forge | A 3D altar with a jeweller who works in front of everyone, in 3 upgradable levels. See The Gem Forge. |
| Gems that grow | 10 levels and 4 visual tiers. Gems gain XP from hits, kills, blocks mined and hits taken. |
| A full survival loop | Monster drops, boss drops, structure chests, unidentified stones and a jeweller's shop. |
| The Codex | An in-game book of every gem and runeword, with categories, pages and search. |
| Made to be edited | Write a gem without a 3D model, add your own categories, change every number and every drop rate. |
How it works
Requirements
| Server | Paper 1.21.11 or newer. Spigot is not supported. |
| Plugins | SCore and ExecutableItems, both up to date |
| Players | The server's Minecraft version, with the resource pack accepted |
The full-screen effects (the shockwave when a gem is socketed, the screen that cracks when it shatters) need a 26.3 server or newer. On older servers everything else works and these effects are skipped.
Give your players the permission ei.item.*
A gem runs through ExecutableItems, which checks the permission of the item. A player who is not OP needs ei.item.*, or every gem shows "You do not have the permission to use eg_..." and does nothing.
With LuckPerms: /lp group default permission set ei.item.* true
Without a permission plugin, put this in the permissions.yml of your server and restart:
ei.item.*:
default: true
Where to go next

- You want to write gems: Create your first gem.
- You play on a server with gems: read the Player guide.
