Bronze
by June
Bronze adds tin and bronze as two new materials, with weapons, armor, tools and blocks, for players who want a copper sidegrade and an iron sidegrade.
What it does
Tin is crafted from Raw Tin smelted into Tin Ingots, and bronze comes from Bronze Blend, a crafting result made from 1 Raw Tin and 3 Raw Copper that is then smelted in a furnace into a Bronze Ingot. Tin trades some durability for a slightly faster mining speed than copper, and bronze trades iron's strength for far greater durability. Four starter weapons are included, one tool set per metal, while Basic Weapons adds five more weapon types and is compatible with the tin and bronze weapons once both are installed.
The mod requires KhazodaCore, and it is also needed by Tools of Steel, [DISCONTINUED] Slow Your Bronze and Trial by Farmer: Core. Bronze runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric, NeoForge and Quilt across 10 release versions, 1.20.1 – 26.1.2, with snapshot builds also published. The code is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only.
Key features

Bronze as an iron sidegrade
Bronze weapons and tools have 500 durability against iron's 250 and keep the other stats of iron.
Sickle and Trowel
The Sickle clears grass and harvests crops in a configurable radius, with auto-replanting, and the Trowel joins the tools in the Shears class.
