About this Mod
Ever hated how you throw away hundreds and hundreds of Netherrack? Ever loathed the wait time and fuel consumed to smelt the Netherrack into Nether Bricks? Because mining the Fortresses takes so long and is so inconvenient to go and travel to one! Talk about habitat destruction!
Now you can just smash 4 Netherrack in your crafting grid to make 1 singular brick. It is far less yield per Netherrack, but how convenient it is!
