Decorative graves

The decorative graves are special blocks with a fog particle only during the night.
They can be harvested with shovel/pickaxe and can be engraved with the anvil (see below).
The decorative graves can be haunted by a soul, depending on the chance set in the config.
The soul stays until used and allows some enchants like magic scroll/tablet, or upgrade the grave's key.
Dark and white graves has no difference for the gameplay (as the chosen model).

Inscription on decorative graves

By using the anvil, you can combine a grave plate with an iron ingot to set a name on that plate.
This can be used then to set or change the name on your decorative graves. A config allows to prevent to switch the names.
In older versions, grave plates were not present and the decorative graves needed to be combined in the anvil.

Knowledge of Death

Players earns knowledge points each time they use a grave's soul to enchant an item, when they free a soul from a receptacle, by praying near a decorative grave with a special item called Ankh of Pray (with a cooldown of 6 in-game hours), or by accomplishing the tombstone advancements.
Theses points allow you to unlock some perks in a special gui "Knowledge of Death" (the keybind in "misc" is not defined by default).
The perks are small bonus related to all the features of tombstone, instead of providing them by default (some of them will be displayed based on what is allowed in the config).

Knowledge of Death gui

Total knowledge points for a level: level * level * 2
Knowledge points to reach the next level: (4 * next_level) - 2

Hints: advancements can reward knowledge points with a custom function
-> the syntax is "rewards": { "function": "tombstone:knowledge//amount/1" }

Compendium

The compendium is a special section of the gui of the Knowledge of Death that provides infos, linked between them, about Tombstone.

Translations & bug reports

To encourage people to participate to the mod by reporting bugs (thoses taking them time) and by providing translations, a temporary special bonus in game is granted (in general, it's never removed). Translations can be provided by private message.
The bonus can vary from one version to another and are anyway 'minor' (like the choice of special grave model).
Note: it's expected to display the name of people having contributed to translations in the Compendium in a coming version.
