Useful Structures

The mod adds generated structures to the overworld: floating logs appear near edge hills and rivers, and a biome with iron stone axes can be obtained by left- and right-clicking along with several other methods. Some blocks, such as leaves, generate in new ways and replace parts of existing structures. Button placement was rotated the wrong direction in early builds and was corrected later.

Six Healing Fire variants generate with random rotations and differ only in the number and location of their logs. Each second of standing inside the fire gives back 1 HP, which is half a heart, once every 3 seconds, and destroying the campfire ends that healing for good. Coarse dirt around a fire allows trees to grow there. A Desert Arena also generates in sand, holding barrel loot, with monsters arriving at night.

The server needs the mod; players may add it. Useful Structures is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 12 release versions, 1.21.5 – 26.3, and is also available as a data pack. It is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and is not open source. The mod uses repeating tick functions that the author tried to optimize, and its public issue tracker is linked from the project.
