Java mod listed for Minecraft 1.16. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
⬇ Download on CurseForgeThe author built this one for Minecraft 1.16.4–1.16.5 on Forge. On other versions it may install and then do nothing.
Bringing the scythes from BluePower as a standalone mod. These scythes are inspired by RedPower and Project Red.
I always wanted to have the scythes from the *Power mods, but I didn't want to have all the extra stuff as well. Hence this mod.
These Scythes cut the same as the ones from BluePower, and essentially the same as Project Red. The code was based on BluePower around December 2020. It's a little bit different because it's by itself. And, there was some issue with repairing the wooden scythes. Now, they can be repaired with any wood (not sure why you would want to repair wooden scythes).
The scythes come in 5 different flavors: wood, iron, gold, diamond, and netherite. They use the natural item tiers from Minecraft.
And now, the scythes can now cut sugar cane, like I thought they could before.
Happy scything!
