Flint Required

v1.4.0 - The Hardcore Refinement Update

Gameplay & Mechanics:

Punishing Barehanded Logging: You can now physically punch logs without an axe, but doing so takes significantly longer and destroying the block yields absolutely nothing. Learn the hard way!

Dynamic Block Degradation: Bashing stone for flint shards now takes a toll on the environment. Successfully chipping a shard will degrade the block (e.g., Smooth Stone turns into Cobblestone, and Cobblestone shatters into Gravel).

Anti-Spam Knapping: Added a short interaction cooldown when trying to extract flint shards to prevent auto-clicker farming.

Crude Bow Realism: The Crude Bow now shoots with significantly more inaccuracy, reflecting its primitive and poorly-crafted nature. Don't expect sniper shots!

Brittle Flint Arrows: Flint arrows are now realistic and fragile. When impacting a solid block, they have a high chance to shatter completely with a sharp cracking sound and a burst of custom flint-shard particles, preventing players from infinitely recycling them.

Bug Fixes:

Arrow Duplication: Fixed a critical bug where picking up a fired flint arrow off the ground would accidentally duplicate the player's entire remaining ammo stack instead of returning a single arrow.

Configuration:

Expanded the configuration file (flintrequired-common.toml)! 

Modpack developers can now:

Toggle the block degradation mechanic on/off.

Precisely tune the inaccuracy radius of the Crude Bow.

Adjust (or completely disable) the break chance for brittle Flint Arrows.
