 `sorcery` is a wide-ranging mod that adds many features, devices, powers, and mechanics to the minetest default game. it aims to add a distinctive cosmology, or world-system, to the game, based around mese, alchemy, spellcasting, and worship. it is intended to be pro-social, lore-flexible, and to interoperate well with other mods wherever possible.
 
 # dependencies
 
 ## first-party
- * default
- * stairs
- * screwdriver
- * vessels
+ * **default**
+ * **stairs** for slabs, used in crafting recipes
+ * **screwdriver** for several crafting recipes
+ * **vessels** for potions, ink bottles, etc.
+ * **tnt** for the flamebolt spell impact effect
 
 ## third-party
  * **xdecor** for various tools and ingredients, especially honey and the hammer
  * **basic_materials** for crafting ingredients
  * **instant_ores** for ore generation. temporary, will be removed and replaced with home-grown mechanism soon
  * **farming redo** for potion ingredients
  * **late** for spell, potion, and gravitator effects
-   * **note**: in order for the gravitator to work, the late condition interval must be lowered from its default of 1.0 to 0.1. this currently can only be done by altering a variable at the top of conditions.lua, though a note in the source suggests a configuration option will be added eventually. hopefully this is so.

 # interoperability
-sorcery has special functionality to ensure it can cooperate with various other modules, although they are not required for it to function.

 ## xdecor
 by default, `sorcery` disables the xdecor enchanter, since `sorcery` offers its own, much more sophisticated enchantment mechanism. however, the two can coexist if you really want; a configuration flag can be used to prevent `sorcery` disabling the xdecor enchanter.
