Description

Ever wished your builds could fight back against explosions instead of instantly turning into debris? Resistant Polish adds a brand-new block reinforcement system that lets you polish blocks to make them more explosion-resistant—without turning the game into pure creative mode chaos.

This mod introduces a simple but satisfying progression where blocks can be treated, measured, reused, and even stripped of their polish when needed.

Polishing System:

Resistant Polish adds multiple polish items that can be applied directly to blocks:

  • Slightly Resistant Polish – A small boost to resistance
  • Resistant Polish – A solid, balanced increase
  • Very Resistant Polish – Maximum protection potential

(All of these values are configurable) Each application increases a block’s Polish Resistance (up to a cap of 100). The higher the value, the better the block can survive explosions.

Polished blocks have a chance to survive with the higher the polish value, the better the odds. Surviving blocks lose some resistance over time.

Utility Items:

To help manage polish, the mod adds a couple of handy tools:

🟠 Copper Polish Gauger

  • Right-click a block to see its current polish value
  • Stores and displays the last scanned value

🧽 Sponge Polish Remover

  • Removes all polish from a block
  • Gives you Leftover Resistant Polish, which can be reused (at reduced strength)

🧪 Leftover Polish

  • Can be reapplied to blocks
  • Restores a weakened version of the original resistance

⚙️ Configurable & Server-Friendly:

     Fully configurable polish values with server-side decay settings for fine balance control. Resistance data is saved per world and automatically cleared when a block is broken.

If you have feedback, bug reports, or suggestions, feel free to DM me on Discord: itwaskairo
