Not enough info - consider in-game guide

[orionSquared]

Hello,

Your mod seems super cool, I want to include it in the modpack I'm creating in 1.12. My main hesitation is that you don't really have a lot of info on the mod itself or what it does. Your wiki page has a few tidbits of info but I feel like the mod either lacks direction or the direction isn't documented.

For example: the Runic Tenebris Core. I know how to get it but...what does it do? Why would I want to craft such a thing? Same for leather of the sea. What does it do?

Most magic mods tend to have in-game guides. I would really recommend such a thing. This helps people not have to search outside the game to know what's happening. But even outside the game info would be preferable to no info at all.

Thanks for the Feedback, an in-game guide is planned and we already got some textures / concept art done but implementing such a feature will take a lot of time, especially since we want to get some other features before done. We will also only implement it in the 1.15+ versions of the mod (1.12 is outdated and even forge dropped support for it)

For now, is there online documentation available? The wiki only states what items do. Is there a progression? I would be up to making one for my server's modpack through quests or something alike. I love how the mod looks, just not sure what it's capable of.

suggest updating online WIKI there are many items implemented not in the Wiki and Its not very convenient to dig through release notes to fin d out what something dose

i suggest you take a look at making a patchouli book as almost all of the mods now days use patchouli or take a look at how botania has implemented their guide

THIS. I installed the mod to try it but since it doesn't have an in-game guide I'm gonna uninstall it. It's so tedious if I have to search for guides outside the game.

THIS.
please.
I'm in the same boat as geminis. :< surely you can throw together a slightly less fancy but still to the point patchouli guide book while you try your hardest to make a proper thaumcraft style default book with fancy images and artwork effects.

Don't leave accessibility till last. it's a pain to make when theres already that much info to digest at once. :V I should know after one such patchouli guidebook I've had to write...

im willing to make the book if you add the internal bits for your mod, just keep me up to date on what things do so i can keep up on documentation
