About this Mod
Overview
This datapack allows hoppers to interact directly with campfires, enabling the automation of campfires. Simply place a hopper above and below the campfire and you'll be able to automate it.
Note
- This only works with hoppers, not chests yet.
- It can only cook the recipes of a campfire. It can't smelt ores or other furnace recipes.
- It will ignore any hoppers facing from the side of the campfire, only up and bottom.
Resourcepack
The resourcepack is optional since it only changes the item itself and not how the block looks and functions.
Recipe
Combine a campfire and a hopper on a crafting table at any order.
Planned Features
- Make chests and double chests be able to work with the campfire hopper.
- Make hoppers work from the sides.
- Make a configs command to configure how fast the campfire can cook.
- Make a configs command to configure whether it can cook all smeltable items.
