Frictionless Ceramic (For Use With Valkyrien Skies)
Adds blocks with zero friction, useful for boat roads and VS contraptions.
About this Mod
This mod adds set of 17 (1 base + 16 color variants), that have Zero Friction, called 'Frictionless Ceramic.'
You can get the base un-dyed block by blasting (not smelting) End Stone, and then it can be dyed into the 16 colors (any can be dyed into any other). However, blasting takes 5 minutes per block, for balance I guess.
These blocks (as it says in the title) can be used in Valkyrien Skies/Create Clockwork vehicles and contraptions as a prettier alternative to Blue Ice.
Comment if you have any suggestions, I'm also thinking about making a mod that adds blocks with very high friction, for making wheels.
