📖 Overview
🔥 Central Heater is a small mod that took a gentle expansion on the heating category of minecraft. It adds many small but useful features that is related to smelting. It allows player to smelt large amount of item at the same time in stoves, without the need to build a super smelter, thereby getting the name central heating, it also adds many unique recipes which allows the automation of diamond and netherite, though extremely difficult. The mod fills in the gap of soul firing, as now you can smelt item with even higher temperature with the fire coming from nether in stoves.
📦 This mod adds a total of 111 items(for now), about 60 of them are blocks
📖 Recommend to install jei as a recipe viewer: Just Enough Items

Unique seething recipe for nether tier stoves, basically smelting using soul flames, can turn item into their nether counterpart, put soul related item in the fuel slot to make the soul fire
Complex procedure to produce scorched coal, ideal for fuels of soul flames
Adds pots and reworked cauldron, you can put 4 item inside and process them, but they require a lit stove to give them heat
A new material called sturdy brick, can craft armor and sword, and even a tank that can store fluids, as strong as diamonds but can not be enchanted
Some burnt food which can give you nausia if you tries to eat it

This is a automation setup for ancient debris, first input the lava by right clicking the cauldron with a lava bucket, then put in the coal blocks, making sure fuels is constantly replenished. After waiting a while, the coal block will turn into ancient debris and retrieved by the hopper under the stove (I coded hopper to extract item in the cauldron when placed below a stove)
📝 FAQ:
When will forge and fabric version come out?
I am actively working on porting this mod to forge 1.20.1, but no plan is made for porting to fabric in the near future. If you can port this mod to fabric, you can do it yourself and releasing it as a seperate mod, I would be very greatful.
Adding this mod to your modpack?
You absolutely can, I would very appreciate it. I don't really care about copyright or licenses, feel free to use it.
