Red Gear Core is primary a library of classes used by most mods created by Team Red Gear.

What Does Core Do?

By itself, Core does the following things

Changes Glass and Ice blocks, making them "solid". This means
- You can place torches, redstone dust, snow, levers, track, and such on them
- Mobs will spawn on them
Changes Cactus to make them NOT destroy items.
Option to make water finite.
Registers a few vanilla items and blocks to the Forge Ore Dictionary
- Coal Ore
- Iron Ingots; Blocks
- Gold Ingots; Blocks
- Emerald; Blocks
- Diamond; Blocks

These are configurable. All transformers can be changed individually, although the registration is all or nothing.

Installation
