This is a simple mod that makes cobblestone easier to store and aims to make it more useful. Currently it adds eight tiers of compressed cobblestone and a full set of craftable tools for each tier.
Each tier of compressed cobblestone is crafted from nine pieces of the previous cobblestone tier:
9 Cobblestone makes 1 Compressed Cobblestone
9 Compressed Cobblestone makes 1 Double Compressed Cobblestone
And so on, this goes up to Octuple (8x) Compressed Cobblestone.
When you want your regular cobblestone back you can decompress your compressed cobblestone blocks:
Compressed Cobblestone tools
Compressed Cobblestone tools are crafted the same way normal stone tools are, only with Compressed Cobblestone. Currently the compressed cobblestone tools have the same stats as the default stone tools apart from durability, which multiplies by four every tier. I'll probably increase this at some point but you can easily change it yourself by changing the value of the "multiplier" variable in the "tools.lua" file.
How much cobblestone does each tier hold in total?
Making higher tiers of compressed cobblestone requires exponentially more regular cobblestone:
- 1 Compressed Cobblestone = 9 Cobblestone
- 1 Double Compressed Cobblestone = 81 Cobblestone
- 1 Triple Compressed Cobblestone = 729 Cobblestone
- 1 Quadruple Compressed Cobblestone = 6,561 Cobblestone
- 1 Quintuple Compressed Cobblestone = 59,049 Cobblestone
- 1 Sextuple Compressed Cobblestone = 531,441 Cobblestone
- 1 Septuple Compressed Cobblestone = 4,782,969 Cobblestone
- 1 Octuple Compressed Cobblestone = 43,046,721 Cobblestone
- Make tools more useful
- Trade some durability for better stats?
- 8x durability increase every tier?
- More uses for various tiers of compressed cobblestone
- Better blast resistance for more TNT-proof buildings
- Compress sand and smelt it into "bulletproof" glass?
- Smelt into obsidian?
- Create a portal to another dimension/location? (similar to the Nether mod, just with CC instead of obsidian)
- Use Technic's compressors for something?
- Better blast resistance for more TNT-proof buildings
- Remove some of the higher tiers? (I mean come on, who is ever going to collect 43 million cobblestone?)
- Use Technic to add a faster way of generating cobblestone?
- Textures for tool tiers (currently uses the same textures as the default stone tools)
- Better textures in general
