Craftable Gunpowder+

This mod makes gunpowder craftable (as it always should have been)

Gunpowder is one of the most useful and fun items in Minecraft and it really has no right to be this rare.

With the addition of Sulfur and Niter to the world, gunpowder can now be made in abundance (just like real life).

The Idea

-Vanilla friendly way to avoid creeper farming at night and turning your backyard into a crater field.

-Makes gunpowder available on peaceful difficulty and large servers (with mob spawning issues).

-Creeper farms are will no longer be mandatory for the late game.

-TNT is now actually usable and no longer unnecessarily expensive.

Features

Gunpowder recipe

1 charcoal + 1 sulfur + 7 niter = 9  gunpowder

Niter

-The main crafting component for gunpowder

Sulfur

-Hard to find crafting component for gunpowder

Sulfur ore

-Found in the deepest debts of the world

-Found in the Nether around lava oceans

-Drops multiple Sulfur items

Niter ore

-Found in both stone and deepslate

-Relatively rare but found in large veins

-Drops multiple Niter items

Soul Soil recipe

1 Dirt + 8 Sulfur = 1 Soul Soil

Did you know that Sulfur burns with a blue flame? Perhaps that is why Soul Soil burns blue to.

With the addition of sulfur, this is a perfect opportunity to make Soul Soil finally renewable 

Fertilizer Recipe 

1 Sulfur + 1 Niter + 2 Bonemeal = 4 Fertilizer

Fertilizer can be used to grow crops just like bonemeal. With this recipe, you get more food out of your bonemeal.

A good way to convert excess niter and sulfur into something useful.

Future plans

• Gunpowder placeable as fuse
• Improvised explosives
