by TroubleGy

Gravel and Steel adds a shaped crafting recipe that turns an iron ingot and gravel into flint and steel on a crafting table.

FabricClient and serverMIT License1.20.1

What it does

Flint and steel can be made at a crafting table from two inputs: an iron ingot and gravel, arranged in a set pattern. The recipe is added as a new shaped recipe, so the item becomes craftable from these two materials. The mod is lightweight and is built to work alongside other Fabric mods. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. Files are published for Fabric only, for Minecraft 1.20.1, with 1.0 as the latest file.
