Consistency+ Mod — Guide
Material Sets
Consistency+ organizes its blocks into "Material Sets." Each set typically includes a wide range of variants. Below are the primary materials supported:
Colored Sets (16 Colors Each)
- Concrete: Adds Stairs, Slabs, Walls, Buttons, and Pressure Plates for all 16 colors.
- Terracotta: Adds Stairs, Slabs, Walls, Buttons, and Pressure Plates for all 16 colors plus the natural (uncolored) variant.
- Glazed Terracotta: Adds Stairs, Slabs, and Walls. These maintain their unique directional patterns.
- Wool: Adds Stairs, Slabs, Walls, Buttons, and Pressure Plates.
- Glass: Adds Stairs, Slabs, and Walls for Clear and all 16 Stained Glass colors.
Stone and Mineral Sets
- Stone Types: Granite, Diorite, Andesite, Tuff, Calcite, and Dripstone receive expanded variants including Bricks, Tiles, and Cut versions.
- Nether Materials: Netherrack, Nether Brick, Red Nether Brick, Quartz, Blackstone, and Basalt.
- End Materials: End Stone and Purpur.
- Special Minerals: Obsidian and Crying Obsidian (including rare Obsidian Slabs and Stairs).
- Sandstones: Sandstone and Red Sandstone receive expanded Cut and Carved variants.
Wood Sets
- All Wood Types: Oak, Spruce, Birch, Jungle, Acacia, Dark Oak, Mangrove, Cherry, Bamboo, Crimson, and Warped.
- Variants: Adds missing Signs, Hanging Signs (1.20+), Buttons, Pressure Plates, Trapdoors, and Doors where vanilla may be inconsistent.
Mechanics and Redstone
The new functional blocks added by Consistency+ behave according to their material properties:
- Redstone Sensitivity: Buttons and Pressure Plates added by the mod follow the behavior of their base material. Wooden-based variants can be activated by arrows and items, while Stone-based (and Concrete/Terracotta) variants require a player or mob to step on them.
- Light Transparency: Glass Stairs, Slabs, and Walls allow light to pass through, making them ideal for modern lighting fixtures and windows.
- Blast Resistance: Obsidian variants (Stairs, Slabs, Walls) retain the high blast resistance of standard Obsidian, allowing for decorative but explosion-proof fortifications.
Block Types and Variants
The mod adds specific block types to ensure every material is versatile for builders.
| Block Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Stairs & Slabs | Standard half-block and diagonal variants for almost every solid material. |
| Walls | Connecting wall segments for materials like Concrete, Glass, and Terracotta. |
| Fences & Gates | Decorative boundaries for non-wood materials. |
| Buttons & Plates | Functional redstone components that match the material's texture. |
| Pillars | Vertical decorative columns, similar to Quartz Pillars, for many stone types. |
| Chiseled & Carved | Decorative blocks with unique engraved patterns. |
| Cut & Tiles | Clean, gridded textures for modern or structured builds. |
| Vertical Slabs | (In specific versions) Slabs that can be placed vertically for wall detailing. |
Mobs and Entities
While primarily a building mod, Consistency+ includes a few unique entities and "easter egg" mobs inspired by community memes and other games.
Nubert
Nubert is a small, red, blob-like creature (inspired by Deltarune). * Spawn: Rare spawn in various biomes. * Behavior: Passive. They generally wander around and are loved by everyone. * Drops: None (standard) or small decorative items. * Variants: Includes the Wigged Nubert, a version of the mob wearing a wig.
Nubert Minecarts
A special functional minecart variant that features Nubert riding inside. It behaves like a standard minecart but serves as a decorative and fun alternative for rail systems.
Crafting and Recipes
Consistency+ follows vanilla-friendly crafting logic. Most blocks can be crafted using a standard Crafting Table or more efficiently via the Stonecutter.
Progression System
Most stone-based materials follow a 2x2 crafting progression: 1. Base Block → 2x2 → Polished 2. Polished → 2x2 → Bricks 3. Bricks → 2x2 → Cut 4. Cut → 2x2 → Tiles
Specialized Recipes
- Chiseled to Carved: Placing 4 Chiseled blocks in a 2x2 pattern creates the Carved variant.
- Stonecutter: It is highly recommended to use a Stonecutter. It provides a 1:1 ratio for all variants (1 Block = 1 Stair, 1 Slab, 1 Wall, etc.), saving significant resources compared to the crafting table.
Recipe Tweaks
In some versions, the mod modifies vanilla recipes to be more consistent: * Buttons: Often yield 4 instead of 1. * Pressure Plates: Often yield 2 or more instead of 1. * Stairs: Yield 6 instead of 4.
