Description

This mod (Forge only yet) adds Potassium and Sulphur Ores, which allow you (through a particular process that mimics the real one) to craft Gunpowder;

which you can normally only get by slayng Creepers (that over time it gonna starts to get boring).

Unlike the other mods which add similar contents.

the manifesto of this mod is to avoid items which exist only for one purpose, becoming useless in advanced game.

Note: the main version is the 1.20.1 

  ( the others may be outdated )

 

generation heights sulphur y9 to y75 
deepslate sulphur y-54 to y-7
nether sulphur y20 to y102

potassium y9 to y104

Few details:

Potassium ore only generates in the Overworld, while the Sulphur ore spawns both in the Overworld (in deepslate too) and the Nether.

ores photo are here:

In order to craft Gunpowder,

first you need to craft the Saltpetre by mixing Potassium, Rotten Flesh, and Bone Meal. 

 

The potassium can be obtained by smelting the Raw potassium.

 ——————————————————

Then after that, you will be finally able to Craft thy Gunpowder(it isn’t so difficult as you think).
 Now, using Saltpetre, Sulphur and Coal/Charcoal (and sugar if you want to increase the gained amount).

if you have any gunpowder in excess, you may use it to make amazing throwable Explosive Bundles (name suggestions are appreciated).

Keep in mind that the Potassium Block explodes when in contact with water (but if you don't like this, simply turn the gamerule doPotassiumBlockExplode to false or wax them like the vanilla copper).

usecases

Click here in case the video doesnt load

 

    “Okay but what is the Saltpetre”

Saltpetre (or saltpeter in the usa).
It is a chemical compound with the chemical formula KNO3.

This is also known as Indian saltpetre (because large deposits of which were historically mined in India). It is an ionic salt of potassium (ions).

K+ and nitrate ions NO3−, and is therefore an alkali metal nitrate.

Niter (or nitre in the UK). It is a source of nitrogen, and nitrogen was named after niter.

(Sorry I can’t provide a better explanation.)
