Carbon Steel

by MONPJC

This Mod adds the ablity to make Carbon Steel by finding carbon powder (found with coal) and then when melted down creates steel ingots to make you fav tools and armor from... but much stronger!

Introduction

Above shows all the items and blocks added to the game and are show in more details below along with Crafting methods. IRL mixing small amounts of carbon with iron creates Carbon Steel and when creating tools this is harder and stronger than nomal Iron but has to be carfully made so that its not so hard it can shatter. Therefore 'just' the right mix is needed and in Minecraft that a ration of 1:8. While not as strong as Diamond carbon is easier to find when minning for coal (not found in deepslate coal). This gives Steel the following properties...

Mining Level 3
Item Durability 707
Minning Speed 7
Attack Damage of 2.5
And enchantablity of 22

When crafted as armor there are also significant addtions to the items giving...

Duriblity multiplyer of 25
Enchantablity of 15
Toughness of 1
And a small amount of knockback - 0.5

One drawback of Carbon Steel is the high temperatures needed to create the ingots, therefore this can only be done in a blasting furniess and also take much longer than normal or melt down.

It should also be noted that once carbon and iron is mixed it cant be stored in a block form.
