Blocks
Kindling
Kindling is a highly flammable utility block designed for use as a fuse or a trap. It features a dry, brush-like texture and comes in several architectural variants.
- Variants: Available as full blocks, slabs, and stairs. If the Quark mod is installed, vertical slab variants are also available.
- Behavior: When ignited, fire spreads rapidly across adjacent Kindling blocks. Once the fire consumes the block, it does not simply disappear; instead, it breaks into several Twigs.
- Usage: Ideal for creating long-distance ignition fuses for TNT or decorative fire pits.
Terracotta Lamps
Terracotta Lamps are decorative light sources that provide a unique mechanical advantage: directional lighting. They are available in all 17 Minecraft colors (including the natural uncolored variant).
- Directional Light: Unlike standard torches or lanterns, these lamps only emit light in the direction they are facing. This allows players to hide light sources behind walls or create focused spotlights without illuminating the surrounding area.
- Aesthetic: The lamps feature unique, ornate textures that allow them to double as decorative floor or wall tiles.
Items
Twigs
Twigs are a resource item introduced by the mod. They are primarily obtained as a byproduct of burning Kindling. When a Kindling block is consumed by fire, it drops multiple Twigs on the ground. These can be collected and used as a basic fuel source or for crafting purposes.
