Gems and Treasures

------------------- alpha version -------------------

be careful, stuff will change, and you world may crash

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So far this mod has:

Carbonado

Carbonado, also known as black diamond, appears on bedrock, can be mined with diamond or better pickaxe and items made from it are slightly better than diamond.

When you mine the ore in the bedrock it will drop a carbonado cluster, that can be broken letting an anvil fall above it. When carbonado clusters are broken by an anvil, it will turn into one or more raw carbonados, depending on how high was the falling anvil. Carbonado clusters can be burnt into the furnace and turn into the carbonado gems that you will use to make armor and tools.

You can also find Dark Ghasts in the nether that will eventually drop carbonado shards, that can be used to make carbonado. They can also drop gunpowder and blaze.

Tiger's Eye

It can be found rarely while mining rock or while digging sand, can be mined/digged with any pickaxe or shovel respectively.

Besides decorative blocks, tiger's eye can be used to make the Scroll of Return, a magic scroll that can teleport you back to your spawn point. After used it will turn back into normal paper, but it can't be used in the nether, as it's magic is incompatible with the dimension and it will burn into gunpowder while not teleporting you anywhere.

Marble

Marble comes into two versions, black and white, an it's solely purpose is to make decorative blocks. If you're using the chisel mod you will have access to variants of the block.

Jade

Jade comes in great varity, being so far the green (default) version, Fire Jade (related to the nether), Void Jade (related to the end), White Jade (rare version), Golden Jade (epic version), and Rainbow Jade (legendary version). You can right click a jade to exchange it for a random item, choosen from a list of items from the mod configuration files. Jade is meant to be used in modpacks, as it will be more rewarding. It will have configuration to drop stuff from some mods, but it's better for each modpack to make it's own drop list.

Mechanics:

This mods adds the Falling Anvil Crafting game mechanics, that basically adds recipes to items to be made when an anvil falls above the needed items. So far only one recipe can be crafted at a time, and other items will be just crushed into dust.

In the future there will be a config file to add custom recipes.

 nothing so far

Incompatible

This may be incompatible with mods that alter stuff related to the anvil falling, but has not been tested yet.

I plan to make everything configurable in the mod, so compatibility will be improved in future versions.
