Players can craft Yellowcake Mix, grind it into Yellowcake Powder, and press it into a Yellowcake Rod. The rod burns for an extremely long time as fuel, but handling it without blacksmith tongs applies irradiation: a damaging debuff that slows movement and surrounds the player with visible green radioactive particles. While burning in a firepit, the rod also produces unnatural green flame and toxic smoke effects.

The mod also includes an antidote pill to remove irradiation, plus an admin-only WIP Yellowcake Ore Bomb for large ore-blast mining.

/giveblock yellowcake:yellowcake-ore-bomb

Most important values, including radiation damage, debuff timing, movement penalty, and visual effects, are configurable through the mod config.

update:

The rod can be split up to 1/16 with a saw in the crafting grid.

This is a fantastic mod, it definitely deserves more downloads.
If you add a better description and more screenshots, I’m sure it will.

I almost completely accidentally destroyed my base with a bomb. It was very funny, I don’t know what I was thinking :D

Wulff, try this command

/giveblock yellowcake:yellowcake-ore-bomb

the new version fixed your crash with the missing protobuf-net.Core

that is a very good idea

mmm yummy :3

also, could we perhaps get the option to slice up the rods, get pellets that burn for a shorter time, so we dont use whole rods when not needed?

i would say, craft with a saw once to get three 4hr burning segments, again with one of those for two 2hr segments, again for two 1hr segments, and finally into half-hour segments, for a total of 24 pellets, if the whole rod is divided in such a way..
