Craft helper Mod (v1.1.2) for PZ 36.4

Description
This is Peanut's Craft helper Mod (v1.1.2): http://pz-mods.net/professions/CraftHelperMod112/
Updated to work with PZ 36.4.

This mod will primarily add a "Craft Helper" context menu item when right-clicking on any item in your inventory or a container.
Selecting that will bring up a dialogue of every recipe that that item is part of. Selecting a recipe will show the recipe components and what
is already obtained by the player ('+' signs) and what needs to be obtained ('-' signs), as well as quantities.
I prefer this to the default crafting windows. This mod also had a crafting book icon that goes on the GUI, that is similar to the default
crafting window, which I removed, since it so slow when using mods like Hydrocraft. Rename recipesBook.lua.bak to recipesBook.lua to enable it.
Omegpl has developed enhancements to CrafterHelper up to v1.5g, that I was not aware of when I developed this. Those worked up to build 32.4.: https://theindiestone.com/forums/index.php?/topic/9267-craft-helper-12/
There were extensive code changes to get this to work in 36.4, due to changes in how the game now relates items with recipes.
All credit to Peanut.

If anyone still would visit this page wondering if this would work...
Was still working fine as of early 2023, but you'd rather stick to Craft Helper Continued now I guess.

Not sure if this still works; it lets me turn it on and start a game, but if I quit, I lose access to my mod page, so I'm unable to turn any mods on or off. The only solution I've found is deleting my mod folder so far.

I like how despite how old this mod is, it still works perfectly fine with the current version (for me, at least)

hi i tried this with build 41 and it does work (though the window position is fixed and will always open there even if you move it but its still useful)

on some items having a lot of uses, like (matches), it can really go slow, but apart from that its pretty handy. (this was using a bunch of mods, including the build 41 version of hydrocraft)

Mhhm- I honestly cannot confirm those crashes, i tested it out of curiosity and it just loads just fine? :/

sorry to hear it does not work (with 41 & hydrocraft at least).. There hasnt been any recent updates. I dont support this anymore either, so maybe someone else can look into fixing a releasing a new version.
