Toolbox Feature Overview/Guide: Welcome to the feature overview! If a planned feature is currently in development, it will be marked with a strikethrough effect.

📦 MODPACK POLICY

MODPACK NOTE: This is only for non-modrinth modpacks. Modrinth distributes the revenue to all mods in a modpack and i'm okay using that instead. Using any other site for it requires these 2 clauses to be fulfilled. If you do not create modpacks, you may skip this segment. If you do intend to include this mod in a pack, read this carefully. "I didn't read it" is not a valid excuse for non-compliance.

I grant permission for this mod to be used in public modpacks on the strict condition that the following two clauses are completely fulfilled at all times:

  1. Attribution Link: The modpack must feature a permanent link back to this official mod page within its description. If hosted on a platform that does not support description text, this clause may be waived.
  2. Non-Commercial Use Only: Your modpack must be entirely free to access. You may not lock the pack, its servers, or its configuration files behind paywalls, Patreon tiers, or sell individual items/access from this mod for real-world money.

If any applicable clauses are violated or removed at any point, your modpack will be subject to removal, and your platform account may face disciplinary action.

NOTE: I do not recommend using any version with a decimal point unless it has the suffix "sterilised" at the end. "Sterilised" means a survival player can play just fine using this mod; there are no bugs, simply a lack of time to fully implement every planned element. (Texture issues do not count as bugs unless they fully prevent the player from playing the game.)

I recommend not fully reading this description on your first playthrough. This is because it will spoil a lot of features that are better discovered naturally. You can still read it if you desire, but this is my personal recommendation!

Items written in Italics represent materials exclusively used for crafting recipes or decoration.

Ores & Core Materials

Most minerals introduced in this mod include a complete baseline set: the Ore Block, the raw mineral drop, a recipe to compress the items into a block, and a recipe to deconstruct the block back into materials.

⚡ Energite

  • Energite Core: A powerful primary component. Its complete utility is detailed in a different segment due to its unique mechanics.
  • Energite Hammer: A heavy tool that grants a movement speed boost while held. To balance this high mobility, it features a slow, sluggish attack speed. It possesses a hidden secondary utility detailed later in this guide, alongside an interaction with the flaming forge.

🌌 Echite

  • A work-in-progress mineral tier. The echite block, ruby block, and some compressed gold are used to craft the Reaver Scythe. More information about that is located further down in the overview.

🧪 Silica

  • The foundational heart of this mod's progression line. A major portion of advanced crafting recipes utilize silica as a core ingredient.
  • Silica Shards (the raw ore drop) can be processed through a furnace into Silica Clumps (DO NOT TRY THIS IN REAL LIFE). These clumps are critical crafting ingredients, which can also be split back down into individual Silica Shards utilizing the Heat Core tool.

💎 Ruby

Rubies fuel the more mystical and magical elements of the mod:

  • Ruby Enchanter: An advanced alternative to bookshelves. It functions three times more effectively than standard bookshelves, requiring only 10 total blocks to achieve a maximum level 30 enchanting setup.
  • Flame Enchant Altar: Designed specifically to handle bow enchantments.
  • Ruby Sickle: A high-attack speed weapon. More in-depth knowledge is located lower in the description.
  • Note: Ruby Blocks require Emeralds within their structural crafting recipe, but deconstructing the block will not return the emeralds—making them an effective option if you need to discard excess emeralds quickly.

Functional Blocks, Tools, and Utilities

🧱 Functional Glass

  • Silicon Glass & Amethyst Glass: Specialized decorative glass variants to enhance your builds.

⚡ Energite Hammer

The Energite Hammer functions as a hybrid sword/axe tool to maximize its damage. It requires a careful playstyle due to its very slow attack speed, but in return, it boasts 8 attack damage (the same as a Java Edition Netherite Sword). When used, the Energite Hammer summons a fork of lightning at the user's position. The user is invulnerable during the summon animation but takes a small amount of residual damage from it. This can be used as a defensive tool to prevent players from rushing you, effectively countering melee weapons like swords, though it struggles against the extended range of trident or bow users in PvP.

🍫 Chocolate / Related Items

  • Melted Cocoa Bean(s): A new item added purely for crafting utility. It can be consumed to restore 2 hunger bars and 1.2 saturation, making it one of the worst standalone food sources in the game.
  • Chocolate: Crafted from melted cocoa beans, sugar, and a milk bucket (the bucket is not consumed upon crafting). Once consumed, it grants Saturation III for 6 seconds and Speed II for 20 seconds.
  • Chocolate Spread: Crafted using chocolate, sugar, a glass bottle, and melted cocoa beans. This is one of the absolute best food sources in the mod—even better than steak! It also provides Speed II for 42 seconds and Haste I for 22 seconds.

🔥 Heat Core

The Heat Core is a portable processing tool crafted using a blast furnace and various stone-type blocks. It allows miners to smelt ores and transmute items on the go without fuel or needing to surface (such as turning sugar cane directly into wheat). It possesses a durability stat, and the durability cost scales depending on the volume of items processed. Some items yield higher outputs—like raw iron turning into 4 iron ingots rather than 1—however, this efficiency comes at a steep cost in the Heat Core's initial crafting recipe.

⏳ Dehydrator

Similar to the Heat Core, the Dehydrator is a portable item that processes materials. It can dry out kelp instantly, convert magma blocks into deepslate, and perform various other transmutations.

🛡️ Ruby Coated Armor

An armor set that grants fewer total armor points than diamond, but offers significantly higher knockback resistance. This makes it an incredibly useful tactical set when dealing with the high-knockback attacks of Hoglins.

🩸 Ruby Sickle

A rapid-strike weapon featuring an incredibly fast attack speed balanced by low base damage. Striking an enemy applies a bleeding effect if the weapon possesses the Flickering enchantment. This weapon can also utilize Flame, and both status effects will stack! However, running both enchantments simultaneously scales the durability cost heavily (demanding 16 durability per hit—4x more than using flame alone, and 2x more than just flickering).

🧊 Ice Pocket

A quick-use defensive tool that extinguishes fire on the user and grants fire resistance for a few seconds. It only has 4 total uses, so diving into a massive lava pool with it is not recommended. Instead, we recommend keeping it on hand to put out residual fire left behind by Ghast fireballs.

🚀 Propulsion Cannon(s)

Propulsion cannons are launch tools that blast you high into the air on the Y-axis. Keep a close eye on their remaining durability before taking flight, or you risk crashing back down to the ground. There are 2 variants available: the Iron Propulsion Cannon and the Energite Propulsion Cannon. The Energite variant is a complete statistical upgrade but is significantly more expensive, requiring blaze rods to craft.

🔥 Flaming Forge

This is the most mechanically complex block in the mod. It features a custom layout with 5 dark red input slots: Modifier, Subject, and Catalyst. Contrary to its name, the Catalyst slot does not exclusively hold sculk catalysts; these labels are simply terminology to help the player understand the slot layouts.

There are also 2 yellow slots positioned above and below the layout: the top slot is reserved for the Hammer (supporting only the Energite Hammer), and the bottom slot is the Fuel slot. Fuel is required for almost all operations, and different recipes require different fuel sources (such as Energite, Blaze Powder, etc.).

There are currently two recipes implemented for it:

  • Instant Portal: Summons a structured nether portal near your location, complete with decorative features.
    • Recipe: Subject: Cobbled Deepslate | Modifier: Crying Obsidian | Catalyst: Flint | Fuel: Energite
  • Silicon Drill:
    • Recipe: Subject: Silica Block | Modifier: Iron Propulsion Cannon | Catalyst: Arrow | Fuel: Blaze Powder

Operation Note: Once all items are placed correctly in their respective slots, you must supply the forge with a redstone power pulse (like a button or lever) to trigger the process. This block sits completely dormant and will not function without an active redstone signal.

🪙 Crafting Items

  • Compressed Gold: Compressed gold is implemented for one sole purpose: crafting the Ruby Coated Armor set. While a single piece of armor seems easy to obtain at first glance, the recipes demand roughly 20–30 gold and multiple rubies per piece. Compressed gold is used to condense those astronomically high material requirements into single inventory slots.

(Additional documentation for advanced tools will be added as development continues.)
