Bluestone: Over-Powered

This mod adds new power alternatives to redstone with their own features!

Bluestone

Bluestone is a new alternative to redstone you can find in the world. Bluestone ore generates at the same levels as redstone but is much less common except when generating near or touching a water block, in that case it's more common to find like in underwater caves.

Bluestone: Functionality

• Bluestone can be used in the exact same way as redstone but it will never connect with it. Bluestone acts as its own separate powerline.
• Bluestone cannot be powered by redstone components (Redstone specific components have been renamed to match).
• Unlike redstone, bluestone can be run underwater, giving it its own specific purpose besides running separate lines.

Purplestone

Purplestone is another new alternative to redstone but is only crafted by mixing redstone dust and bluestone dust together.

Purplestone: Functionality

• Purplestone can be used in the exact same way as redstone and it can connect to both redstone and bluestone.
• Redstone and bluestone signals get divided in half when being connected by purplestone.
• Purplestone cannot be placed underwater.

Purplestone Converter

A purplestone converter is a new block that can convert between redstone and bluestone while also acting like a repeater. The signals can be swapped by right-clicking the purplestone converter (Redstone-in Bluestone-out or Bluestone-in Redstone-out). The purplestone converter can also be locked like repeaters.

Greenstone

Along with all those variant, I also added greenstone. Greenstone is also only crafted by mixing purplestone dust with a slimeball.

Greenstone: Functionality

• Greenstone can be used in the exact same way as redstone and acts as its own powerline similarly to bluestone.
• Greenstone can stick to walls allowing for vertical redstone to finally be possible.

Converter Block

The converter block is a new block that can take any input power and convert it to any output power allowing all types of powers to freely convert to one another.

Chain Rails

Along with all these new redstone alternative with their own features, I added a new powered rail variant.

Chain Rails: Functionality

• Chain rails act similarly to powered rails.
• The chain rail is special in that it makes minecarts go at a consistent speed and only work one way.
• Once the minecart leaves the chain rail they do not transfer the speed they got from the chain rail onto other rails.

Sticky Rails

For the final addition, I added sticky rails and sticky variants for redstone rails. Sticky rails allow for all rails to be placed on walls. These rails can be ridden on by a minecart on walls and ceilings. If you start to lose speed while on a wall or ceiling the minecart will fall off the track so you must keep a consistent speed. If the minecart is on chain rails however, it does not matter how fast its going as the chain rails will keep it on the track.

Minecart First-Person Camera

The first-person camera on minecarts has gotten a little overhaul allowing for the sticky rails to actually rotate the player's view. Because of this the first-person view might be a little nausiating for sensative player which is why I recommend to have the Mod Menu mod for Fabric as it will allow you to edit settings regarding the camera (NeoForge has a built in mod menu so you can do it without an additional mod).
