This one now beats Ibanez! W00T, and Death now runs his unfinished TRON pack.

This mods is awesome, just wished it did not lag so much. :(

Although it make survival even harder, at the same time, makes it more fun. So 10/10 for Kddekadenz

Good mod, I think some (of the) recepies from here should be in the base game when it is finished.

However, I think that for compatibility with other mods, crafting normal sticks out of cacti would have been better than a special one.

And make it like Notch's fail?

And you say we shall not?!

Thank you :)

That isn't something which affects the compatibility with other mods . Incompatibility could be caused by the crafting recipe of it.

I used quite a stupid way of worldgen (I use ABM's instead on_generated). I will change this if I have time.
It will delete for example every water_source next to water_source -> that causes the conflict.
