# ⚡ FastFurnaces+
**FastFurnaces+** is a performance-focused utility mod for Minecraft **1.20.1** that gives you complete control over your smelting speed. Upgrade your standard furnaces, blast furnaces, and smokers to process items at blazing speeds—without breaking the survival balance!

### 🔥 Key Features
* **Universal Speed Up:** Works seamlessly on standard **Furnaces**, **Blast Furnaces**, and **Smokers**.
* **Dynamic Fuel Consumption:** Smelting faster burns fuel proportionally faster. Higher speed means higher fuel intake, keeping survival gameplay fair and strategic.
* **Customizable Rates:** Tune smelting speeds to match your needs—from slight productivity boosts to instant processing.
* **Lag-Friendly & Optimized:** Lightweight code designed to run smoothly on both client and dedicated server environments without tick drops.

### 🛠️ How It Works
Instead of waiting endlessly for iron ingots or food, **FastFurnaces+** accelerates the internal tick rate of smelting blocks.
* **Speed Boost:** Increases item output rate per second.
* **Fuel Balance:** If a furnace operates **4x faster**, it consumes coal **4x faster**. You save time, not resources!
