4 months ago Hi thanks for the great suggestion - Initially I was going to make tin nuggets, because as you say it feels weird without.
However, in the spirit of remaining true to vanilla's design, I chose not to. Vanilla actually only has 2 nugget types: Iron and Gold. Every other mineable ore-like resource is either:
- a gemstone like diamond, emerald
- some sort of dust material like redstone, lapis lazuli
- something else, like coal/copper
Now, although copper has an ingot version, like iron and gold, it has a distinct difference: It's possible to make tools & armour from iron and gold, but not copper. And I'm sure you know copper has no nugget. As I've implemented tin to be a copper-like, it has an ingot like copper, but no nugget (like copper). And similarly, as bronze can be turned into tools and armour, it gets a nugget version.
Again, this is following Minecraft's arbitrary material rules they've set up, so I could change it, but currently I'm happy with it following copper's design.
Sorry if this was rambly and incoherent, I hope it made sense 😅
Just tried your mod. Its awesome! Fits really well with vanilla style/mechanics.
I just missed a tin nugget item. Was planning to tweak some CC:Tweaked recipes and, since tin is also used in eletronics in real life, would use tin nuggets to craft some items of that mod that i also remixed the recipes to use iron/gold/copper (from Tidbits) nuggets on those.
Again, thanks a lot for this mod!
