Better Progression

HOW THE MOD WORKS:

Goal #1: Obtain a crafting table

Mine many logs, which drop sticks unless broken with an axe.

Craft four sticks into a bundle of sticks.

Craft four bundles of sticks into bundled planks.

Craft four bundled planks into a crafting table.

Goal #2: Obtain wooden and stone tools

Wooden tools are now crafted with bundles of sticks instead of planks.

Stone and cobblestone, when mined with a wooden pickaxe, drop 1-2 rocks.

Craft nine rocks into cobblestone.

Stone tools can be crafted with stone only, meaning cobblestone has to be smelted.

Craft eight cobblestone into a furnace.

Obtain more cobblestone and smelt it.

The resulting stone can be used to make stone tools!

Stone and cobblestone, when mined with a stone pickaxe, drop 3-4 rocks.

Goal #3: Obtain iron tools

Iron ore drops 1-2 lumps of iron.

Four lumps of iron can be crafted into raw iron.

When raw iron is smelted in a furnace, the iron output is normal.

When raw iron is smelted in a blast furnace, the iron output is doubled.

This process also applies to gold.

Stone and cobblestone, when mined with an iron pickaxe or better, drop themselves.
