Melter
by oierbravo
Melter adds a simple melter block that turns items into liquid, with heat sources of several strengths that set how fast it works.
What it does
The melter block converts placed items into liquid when it sits above a heat source. Heat comes from a torch, a campfire, lava, or a blaze burner, and each source sits at its own level on the heat scale. A blaze burner can be inactive, active or superheated, and the superheated state gives the highest level of the set. Recipes for the melter are provided, so the block can be used in automated setups as well as by hand.
Melter works with Create, which is optional. Create supplies the high tier heat sources, so a melter can reach the stronger heat levels in that setup. JEI, Jade and KubeJS are also optional, and CraftTweaker can add recipes. Melter is published for Forge and NeoForge on 1.18.2 – 1.21.1, and the code is released under the MIT License as open source. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod.
Key features
Liquid-producing melter
A simple melter block turns the items placed in it into liquid, and it runs on whichever heat source sits beneath it.
Graded heat sources
Torch, campfire, lava and blaze burners each sit at a distinct heat level, from none up to superheated.
Blaze burner states
A blaze burner works in an inactive, active or superheated state, and each state changes the heat it supplies.
Create heat sources
Higher tier heat sources come from Create when it is installed, extending the melter beyond the basic heat set.
