Tough Environment is a mod that overhauls how most blocks in the world break and how the player interacts with them. Slower early game and a more fletched out progressions of tools in the beginning provide the player with an interesting challenge.
List of Features:
Added:
- Copper & Netherite Nuggets!
- Stone Brick Item
- Block of Clay (because the vanilla clay block has been changed)
- Chisel Items
- Loose Blocks variants for most stone blocks & Loose Dirt. Slab block variants for those blocks as well
- Placeable raw ore items as blocks
- Mortaring mechanic for loose stone type blocks
- Sound cues when breaking certain blocks for more immersion
Configuration Settings in Mod Menu for:
- Hardcore Mining Speed (slower overall speed)
- Block Breaking Restrictions - Makes blocks unbreakable if the player is not using the correct tool
- Stratification Toughness - Makes some blocks that are considered higher strata than stone level blocks require higher level pickaxes to mine effectively
Changed:
- Most blocks in the world drop lesser loot instead of full blocks when harvested with an improper tool
- Stone Blocks in the world break in layers when mined with a primitive tool
- Primitive tools (stone & wooden types) have reduced durability
- Changed Clay block generation with a new custom "Dirt Clay" block
- Flint and Steel, Compass & Bucket's recipes now require nuggets instead of ingots
- Clock recipe changed to require gold nuggets instead of ingots & quartz instead of redstone
Acknowledgement: This mod is a substantial adaptation and ports functionality from the original BTW Mod, which was created by FlowerChild and is currently maintained by the CE Team. Link to the original mod -> here
