Burning Touch

Burning Touch Mod!

Burning Touch adds a single enchantment: it instantly smelts ores that would normally require smelting. Forget about using a furnace or filling your inventory with raw ore.

What does it do?

When you mine a compatible block with a pickaxe or shovel enchanted with Burning Touch, the resulting item is automatically smelted. Break iron ore and get an ingot. Break a wet sponge and get a dry one.

It also works well with Fortune: items are multiplied before smelting, allowing you to get the most out of both enchantments combined.

Smoke and flame particles appear depending on the block.

Compatible blocks

How to get it

Burning Touch uses the game’s native systems; it requires no custom interfaces or commands.

• Enchanting Table: appears like any other enchantment, with a rarity similar to Silk Touch.
• Librarian Villagers: available as a trade offer.
• Loot Chests: can appear in dungeons and other structures.

It is mutually exclusive with Silk Touch.

This is my first Minecraft mod and my first time developing a mod for any game. I built it to learn and had a lot of fun doing it. If you run into any issues or have suggestions, feel free to open an issue — any feedback is genuinely appreciated.
