Realistic Campfires

Info

Change how the vanilla campfire works by requiring you to put more work in creating and maintaining a campfire.

To use this mod, download the mod it and move it to your .minecraft/mods folder. Additionally, you will need to install this mod on your server for it to work properly. The Fabric API jar for this mod is also needed for the client and server.

Features

Whenever you place down a campfire, it will not be lit. In order to light it on fire, you need to do the following things:

• Right click a campfire while holding a log in your main hand
• Grab a flint and steel and light the fire. By default, the fire will last for five (5) minutes

After being lit, the campfire will last for five (5) minutes before being extinguished. The amount of time can be configured via a datapack.

1. Make a datapack in the data/realistic-campfires/campfire/time/ directory.
2. Create a time.json file in this directory with the following data:

{
	"minutes": int, 
	"seconds": int 
}

Note that both these values are optional. If none of these values are present, then the game will default to 5 minutes.

Other features include:

• A custom campfire model that indicates a log has been dropped onto the campfire
• Shift + right click to get the log back (note: you need to do so with an empty hand!)
• Break the campfire and get the log back.

Other features include:

• Rain will extinguish the campfire
• Water, if one block above the campfire, will extinguish the campfire

These features apply to both the campfire and soul campfire blocks.

There are also custom textures for the different logs you drop onto the campfire instead being the default oak log.
