Cosmetic TNT
by sacdj
Cosmetic TNT adds TNT blocks that look like explosives but do not detonate, for building and decoration.
What it does
Cosmetic TNT provides fake TNT blocks for use as decoration. They do not explode when ignited, so they can sit in builds, sets and scenes without causing damage. The blocks are crafted from a glass block and a TNT block in a shapeless recipe on the crafting grid. The author recommends a pickaxe for mining them, since the host block is loadstone. Only the server needs the mod, and players may leave it out. It is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt for 1.20 – 26.2.
