I have heard of other players asking about this, but I cant find any news or discussion about this. So I am gonna ask: Is there a current EMC bug regarding crafting recipes? You have ingredients in your inventory but literally nothing shows up in your craftable recipes for either the crafting table or crafting by player. This is happening when you first log in and fixes itself when you make anything. Yes, I am using 1.12.2 and this happens in town or in the wild - doesn't matter. Here is a pic of me at the gold farm. Doesn't show I can make anything with the gold nuggets.
Yah, it's am EMC bug, and very annoying. Hop onto another server, then hop back and it'll work. OR... add a recipe yourself (for example: 9 coal to craft a block (and craft it)) and it'll pop as well.
