Latest file for v1.18.15:
FlintandSteelAddon-Uncompiled.zip 1-click install


Adds a new class file and JSON patch for Flint and Steel to give it special behavior and a new sound effect.
It works the same as before, except now it ignites instantly and produces some lightbringing sparks.

This mod does nothing on its own. You need to download the Flint and Steel mod in order for this addon to function.
The class file added by this mod can be used by other mods, just set your firestarter's entityclass to ItemFlintAndSteel and add a dependancy.

Can't be, F&S doesn't add any code. My guess: are you running this on a server?
Despite this game running server code in singleplayer, it seems to have multiplayer-exclusive glitches.

I am still getting a crash on startup on 1.18.5 with just this mod and the base “Flint and Steel” mod. I honestly think the problem is with the base mod.

Epic, thanks!

Another case of "making it uncompiled fixed the mysterious errors"

💬 OmegaHaxorsAuthor, Nov 19th 2023 at 5:29 AM

API changes? Okay shouldn't be too hard to fix. While i'm at it i'm going to uncompile it which should result in better performace while also making it readable/editable.

I added just this mod and the Flint and Steel mod and they crashed on usage; I did have a bunch of other mods in use so it could be a compat thing, so I'm gonna check right now. Edit: Yup, crashes even with only FlintandSteel and FlintAndSteelAddon in the mods folder when you try to ignite something with the flint and steel. Crash log here.

Should still work, I build these mods to be timeless.
Report any issues that pop up due to updates.

Could you please update this mod for 1.18.8+?
