Gloop Blocks
This mod is a random collection of decorative and functional blocks for Minetest, including alternative cobble roadbed, rainbow blocks, "evil" blocks and sticks (which require Kalite from Glooptest), the usual collection of tools of various strengths and speeds made from either basic_materials' cement or gloopblocks "evil" components. It also brings in most nodes from the usesdirt mod, plus a couple of extras. It also adds a few other useful functions - see below.Dependencies: Minetest 0.4.7 or later and the corresponding minetest_game "default" mod, and my basic_materials mod. If you have signs_lib installed, it must be commit 4ff54c9a or later.
Recommends: glooptest, moreblocks, moreores, default flowers and dyes.

Other useful stuff
* If you have the More Blocks mod installed with its usual StairsPlus component, evil blocks, pumice, basalt, Oerkki blocks, and mossy stone bricks can be cut on the table saw that comes with the Moreblocks mod, into slabs, stairs, etc. Like the block, evil stairs/slabs/etc. emit a small amount of light. Gloopblocks also adds basic_materials' cement block to the table saw.
Note: If you don't have More Blocks, but you do at least have the standard "stairs" mod installed, then only cement, pavement, and cobble roadbed will be made available in the slab and stair forms, to try to limit how many nodes are being added (since these would perhaps be the most useful).
* When water and lava come into contact with one another, they will form one of three materials: Flowing lava coming into contact with standing water turns the lava into basalt, both flowing into one another turns the lava into pumice, while standing lava turns into obsidian when in contact with flowing or standing water.
* Cobblestone, cobble roadbed, stone, and stone brick blocks, stairs, and slabs (and the various other shapes as well, if More Blocks is installed) slowly turn into their mossy variants in the presence of flowing or standing water, as long there is also air present.
* Because the mod has long since been abandoned, Gloopblocks now contains the blocks, fences, and ladders from Dogzilla131's Usesdirt mod, with textures built from Minetest game's default textures. It does not implement the tools, chests, or furnaces. If you have that mod installed, Gloopblocks will defer to it instead. Recipes can be found on the Usesdirt thread's first post.
