I did NOT create Sandboxels. All credit goes to R74n for creating Sandboxels. I have permission to create this mod. Link to the official website of R74n: https://r74n.com/
Sandboxels
This mod adds the game Sandboxels to the game. It's for people who are bored and want to do something else. For example, when doing a repetitive task like AFKing, or queueing in server.
Sandboxels is a falling-sand simulation game developed by R74n, with mechanics such as heat simulation, electricity, density, chemical reactions, fire, and over 500 unique elements to play with.
Press M or type /sandboxels in chat to open sandboxels. This mod also culls everything while sandboxels is open for better framerates.
This mod is still in early beta, so it will lag while in sandboxels. I am working on it.
Details
Sandboxels is a single-player game, but users can export save files that can be downloaded and imported by others.The simulator can be used to experiment with chemistry, to cook food, or simply to pass time. Users are able to passively discover and learn through observation of the effects of their actions.
Elements are the various materials, liquids, gases, life, and more in Sandboxels. When placed onto the canvas, they appear as pixels with differing properties. Each element is found within a category.
Elements have behaviors that determine how they move on the canvas. For example, Powders tend to fall downward and move to the side when they hit something.
Each individual pixel has its own properties, such as its temperature. Depending on the element, pixels can be melted, frozen, shocked, ignited, broken, and more. There are various tools that can affect a pixel's properties, such as Heat or Paint.
Pixels can react with certain other elements, which creates many unique scenarios. For example, Dirt can be combined with Water to create Mud, which can then be combined with Sawdust to create Mulch.
There are currently 546 elements, including 228 hidden ones.
More information can be found in the Sandboxels wiki.
