Description
This mod features the Fire Starter, an item that works like Flint and Steel. With a configurable number of uses and a simple crafting recipe, the Fire Starter is ideal for the early game or any modpack where Flint and Steel is more difficult to craft.
Features:
- Fire starter craftable with 2 sticks and 2 "tinder" (this includes paper, wheat, resin clump, leaf litter, dead bush, and dried kelp)
- Recipes added to the recipe book upon picking up a piece of tinder
- Fire starter has a configurable base number of uses (4 uses by default)
- In-game configuration is available via Mod Menu if installed
