Rainbow Wood
Adds new tintable variants for all vanilla wooden items.
In case the 11 wood types from vanilla aren't enough, now you can have ~16.5 million different ones!¹
¹ One for each possible RGB color, but most of them look the same and thus are pointless haha

Acquiring
In creative mode, just open the creative menu and there are 76 different colors available in the "Rainbow Wood" tab.
When playing survival, you first have to get uncolored items before coloring them. To do that, you can drop any normal wooden item into a cauldron filled with water.
You can also craft colored items from other colored items (i.e. stairs from planks, fences from planks and sticks), just make sure that the inputs all have the same color.
Colors can be applied in two ways:
Averaging
This is the default way. It gets the average color of the input items, and then applied it to the output.
The inputs can contain other tinted items of the same type (i.e. you can't combine stairs with a slab) or dyes.
Examples:
Red Dye + Blue Dye + Uncolored Planks
Coloring planks with a Red Dye (RGB of 255, 0, 0) and Blue Dye (RGB of 0, 0, 255) results in colored planks with the color of (127, 0, 127) as that is the average.

Red Dye + Uncolored Planks
Coloring planks with a Red Dye (RGB of 255, 0, 0) results in colored planks with the color of (255, 0, 0) aka red.

Blue Dye + Uncolored Planks
Coloring planks with a Blue Dye (RGB of 0, 0, 255) results in colored planks with the color of (0, 0, 255) aka blue.

Red Planks + Blue Planks
Combining red planks (RGB of 255, 0, 0) with blue planks (RGB of 0, 0, 255) results in 2 colored planks with the color of (127, 0, 127) as that is the average.

Purple Planks + Uncolored Planks
It is also possible to combine uncolored items with colored items, which will result in duplication of the colored items. Combining purple planks (RGB of 127, 0, 127) with uncolored planks results in 2 colored planks with the color of (127, 0, 127).

Adding
To add the RGB values of the inputs, you need to put an Iron Ingot into the recipe as a modifier.
Examples:
Red Dye + Blue Dye + Uncolored Planks
Coloring planks with a Red Dye (RGB of 255, 0, 0) and Blue Dye (RGB of 0, 0, 255) results in colored planks with the color of (255, 0, 255).

Red Planks + Blue Planks
Combining red planks (RGB of 255, 0, 0) with blue planks (RGB of 0, 0, 255) results in 2 colored planks with the color of (255, 0, 255).
