## Redstone Dragon
**Redstone Dragon** is a Dragon Survival add-on that introduces a brand-new dragon species born from redstone and technology. This living fire-support platform is covered in redstone circuits, capable of delivering devastating firepower from afar — but lose your weapons and you are nothing.
### Features
**🐉 New Dragon Species — Redstone Dragon**
- 5 bodies (center/east/west/south/north) reusing DS dragon models & animations
- 4 stage skins: newborn / young / adult / ancient — all recolored from DS cave dragon UVs into a dark-metal + redstone palette
- Full skin parts: base, bottom, eyes, horns, spikes, claws, teeth, magic, extra
- Retains vanilla DS item blacklist & dragon fear penalties
**🍖 Redstone Diet**
All vanilla redstone devices are edible! Redstone dust = sweet berries, redstone torch = beetroot (leaves a stick), redstone block = golden carrot, other components = bread.
**⚡ Active Skills**
- **Extract** — peel redstone dust off your body, costs 0.1 mana
- **Redstone Breath** — standard DS dragon breath with custom damage type
- **Blueprint Silo** — open a panel, list schematics/*.nbt, print if materials are available (from inventory, Sophisticated Backpacks, or nearby containers)
- **Blueprint Recorder** — cast at two coordinates to save a region as a Create-compatible .nbt schematic
**🛡️ Innate Passives**
- Redstone Wings (flight)
- Redstone Spin (no fluid restriction)
- Built-in radar with RWR (no radar module item needed)
- Built-in missile launcher (consumes missiles from inventory)
**🔧 Acquired Passives**
- Mana recovery on redstone blocks/devices (scales with level)
- Chaff dispenser (B key) — consumes redstone first, then mana at reduced cost

- Server-authoritative radar with lock-on state machine
