MORE FIXES AND BLOCKS!
21/9/2025
Version 25dt02a
Neoforge 1.21.4
Hey there, since last snapshot many things have happened, Bugs, Hype for Minecraft Live and possibly the end of Summer :(
Wait, where were I? Yes, the snapshot, this time I really outdid myself! A new Wood Set, lots of revamped textures, bug fixes and, finally, the completely functional and lag-free Iron Pipe vertical transportation!
I'm happy to announce that version 1.3 is finally complete! For the actual release I'll wait for Minecraft 1.21.9 to roll out; by that time I'll work on the upcoming chiseling system for version 1.4, (not an easy work to be honest), so expect to find some chisel-related changes in the final release of this version, as well as last-minute fixes!
DEVELOPMENT NOTE
Added Cork oak wood set
Added Cork Bark
Added Glass Jar and Fireflies Jar
Added Brown-Tinted Glowshroom Fibers set
Added Pale Oak Tiles and Ladders
Added the Spooky Tree Sapling (finally)
Added Waxed Copper ladders (all variants)
Fixed a placement bug related to Wall Lanterns
Fixed timing for the reaction between the Purple-Tinted Blueshroom Fibers Blocks and the new Magenta one.
Re-Introduced recipes for Magenta-Tinted Blueshroom Fibers Blocks
Fixed Tooltips for Purple and Magenta Tinted Blueshroom Fibers Blocks
Fixed Tooltip for Orange-Tinted Glowshroom Fibers Trapdoor
Fixed block-flammability parameter for EVERY block of the mod. This was a crucial point in the management of which block could be ignited by fire or not; now every block has the right values.
Fixed a huge placement bug for Saplings and Funguses! Now they spawn their respective tree/fungus in the correct position.
The new Cork Oak Tree is a plant which grows in Savannas, it is very ancient and peculiar.
It can in fact resist fire for a very long time while covered in its Cork Bark!
Apart from this, here's some other infos:
Can be re-planted by using 4 saplings
Its wood set has a completely different texture compared to the other sets.
Wooden blocks come with Ladders, Bookshelves, Mossy variants and Walls
This new decorative block comes in two forms, Empty or filled with Fireflies! Crafted from a glass block and Cork Bark, it can be used at night to catch some fireflies!
While holding a Glass Jar near a Fireflies Bush (vanilla or modded), and by pressing shift , you can store some fireflies and get a new light source block!
Right-click, and press shift , on a jar containing Fireflies to free them!
Your help is fundamental to create a great project!

Completely fixed Iron Pipes lag-related problems, here's more about it:
In the previous code I made, there were too many checks for sorrounding blocks, as well as the actual Iron Pipe Block. Now this is fixed in a way that does not impact performances and gameplay.
The Iron Pipe now checks if it is placed vertically and adapts itself to this new condition: it will only communicate with vertically placed blocks in order to transfer items.
Along this new code-related mechanic, there are two important overall changes:
The Iron Pipe can now transfer items in all direction one time per 2 seconds (quite slow)
The Iron Pipe placed vertically, if active, (read previous snapshot), becomes indestructible; this is a performance related choice and aims to reduce to almost 0 the possibilities of bug encounters. Gameplay talking, if one wants to move the iron pipe while it is active, should deactivate it first.
This last point is not a final decision, it may be changed in the next snapshot.
Incremented Blueshroom Fungus variant probability, 0.30 to 0.35
Started implementing a chiseling system.
NOTE: this is an early prototype and it is not final. It will be part of future version 1.4
Improved code performance
