Dwarven Candles
Minecraft Java mod. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
⬇ Download on CurseForgeThe mod adds an item called a dwarven candle. The dwarven candle is an item the allows for controlled blast mining. When detonated it will destroy a 3x3x3 cube centered on itself. The explosion will not destroy any items but living entitys will be damaged. Like TNT it can be primed with redstone or flint and steel and nearby explosions will detonate it. Right clicking in air with the candle with a flint and steel in an adjacent slot will throw it. While not very effective as a weapon it can be used for explosive fishing.

To make priming a large amount of candles easier you can craft the candle remote. The remote can be used to remotely prime a large number of candles. Right clicking with the remote on a candle will add/remove that candle to/from the list. Also having the remote in an adjacent slot to the candles will auto link them when placed. Just right click in the air to prime all linked candles.

Warning: not recommended for use on birthday cakes.
