ItemPhysics - Fire Starter Add on
by DomeGnome
ItemPhysics - Fire Starter Add on restores the classic ItemPhysics fire behavior for NeoForge, where burning items set nearby blocks alight.
What it does
Thrown fiery items such as torches set nearby flammable blocks on fire, and the add-on restores the classic ItemPhysics feature that lets thrown items ignite the world. Flammability also influences block hardness. The behavior runs on client and server, so both sides need the add-on. Files are published for NeoForge across 11 release versions, 1.21.1 – 1.21.11, and the code is open source under the MIT License.
Key features
Fire from thrown items
Thrown fiery items, including torches, set nearby flammable blocks on fire.
Flammability and hardness
A block's flammability changes how hard it is, so burning terrain can wear down over time.
Configurable fire rules
A burn delay, an ignition range and lists of flammable items and blocks can be adjusted in the config.
