FAQ

Will you backport to X version?
No!

Why didn't you add rusted iron bars/ iron doors/ cauldrons/ golems/ etc?
In vanilla not all blocks containing copper oxidize (i.e. lightning rods), only the block of copper and cut copper do. We felt like it was important to be consistent with that precedent and it would be difficult to draw the line of what blocks containing iron do/don't rust.

I found a bug!
Oh no! Please create a Github issue on the mod's repository.
