Smoky Firewood
by GeoRgiO
Smoky Firewood gives furnaces, campfires and a firewood stove real smoke, and adds chimney blocks that carry it away from the room.
What it does
Furnaces and campfires emit smoke while they are active, and split logs and firewood serve as fuel for them. Smoke has to go somewhere: a build needs a proper flue system made of chimney blocks, and a chimney cap keeps the smoke out of an enclosed room. A flue that is blocked or overloaded lets smoke back into the space, where it can cause smoke inhalation. Brick chimneys and metal smoke pipes route the smoke through a building.
The mod also covers the wood itself. A splitting axe turns logs into split logs through a short timing minigame, and stripped variants and dedicated firewood wood types give the fuel more forms. Wood chips are a by-product of that work and can be used in a smoker or for compost. Firewood piles hold up to 32 pieces in one block, and drying racks store and display split logs.
Smoky Firewood runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It requires Fabric and is published for 26.1.2 only, as a 1.0.0 file from the beta channel. The mod is open source under the MIT License.

A new fuel type: firewood. Split stripped logs on a…
