Hi everyone! )

I want to introduce You a little mod, which aims to add some fun to the environment and add to the minecraft world something useful.

This mod brings salt to the world!!!

SaltyMod

Description:

Mod adds the following blocks:

Salt Ore
Block Of Salt & Cracked Block Of Salt
Chiseled Salt Block
Pillar Salt Block, Short Pillar Salt Block & Salt Chapiter
Salt Brick, Cracked Salt Brick & Chiseled Salt Brick
Salt Lamp
Salt Slab
Salt Brick Slab
Salt Brick Stairs
Salt Crystals
Salt Lake Bottom (Stone & Dirt)
Mineral Mud Block
Salt Extractor

Salt Blocks

From the salt ore you can get salt. With its help, you guessed it, it is possible to pickle food!

And we all know that salty food is much tastier))) It becomes a nutritious and satisfies hunger longer, only slightly, but during the game is palpable. And though salt ore not easy to find, expense it into a separate dish is very small. Therefore, after a visit to the canyon or the caves, you can enjoy a long healthy and delicious food)

Recipes:

For fried foods - a pinch of salt
For raw fish - three pinches of salt
So, with the help of salt you can neutralize rotten flesh, although expense in this case will be much greater, as many as eight pinches.

Using salt, you can entice cows and horses, as well as feed them.

For convenient storage of salt can raise it in the block, which by the way, also has an effect. This unit melts around them snow and ice. Well, not very good for the slugs & witchs :)

Like a Jack-o'Lantern from a salt block can craft the salt lamp with dim romantic lighting but ;)

Well, the last speciality - the salt crystals! Find them can only luckiest miner) They grow only on salt ore at a depth of less than 40 units, and where there is no direct sunlight. Mined with silk touch tools.

Instantly killing slugs & witchs!!! Poor creatures...

And though in themselves they are useless, but growing them, you can host a salt farm. It is not very fast and efficient, but then the salty food is not vital product :D

For normal growth of crystals you will need to assemble construction of any five salt blocks (see. picture), pour water around, hide all this from the rain and light and wait.

Salt crystals grow in several stages. Be careful! Obtain salt can only be fully grown.

Salt Farm

Also, based on salt can be prepared some new dishes.

Recipes:

Soft-boiled egg
Pumpkin porridge
Stewed vegetables (You can add salt, mushrooms in various combinations)
Fruit salad (Adds lightness)
Dandelion salad (You can add salt, good for health)
Pickled Mushroom
Pickled Fern (Strengthens bones)

Salt dishes

SaltyMod_Food_Update_2

And finally, this little mod changes the world around, adding a dry salt lakes!

Salt Lake

There are extremely rare, but it is an excellent source of salt.

Just added this type of soil as saline soil and the plant saltwort, grows only in these soils on the banks of the salt lakes.

This plant is valuable to its healing effect.

From the saltwort can make salads, pies, it can marinate or consumed raw) All these products have different strength and duration of the effect.
Also, if you mix the ashes of saltwort with water, you can get a fizzy drink, relieve you of all the effects and extinguishing the fire, if you suddenly caught fire.

Oh, and for dessert prepared muffin, allowing you to stay longer fed)))

Recipes

Like other types of plants, saltwort can be grown, but in the process has its own characteristics.
I will not reveal the secrets, but about the technology can easily guess just a little after watching the growing saltwort ;)

Also, you can find the crops of saltwort in desert & jungle temple.

Do not look here!

The technology of growing saltwort:

For the growth of saltwort does not need water, but need sunlight.
Saltwort can be grown on saline soil only. On the other types of soil including sightly saline soil, he dies.
Each stage of growth saltwort makes the soil a bit less salty. This can be determined by the color of the ground. The saline soil is transformed into sightly saline soil.
In order to re-plant saltwort at sightly saline soil, it is necessary to add salt. You can do this on the craft table or by right-clicking on the sightly saline soil with pinch of salt in their hands or with dispenser.
At each stage of growth saltwort give a different number of crops. The larger the plant, the greater the harvest.
At the final stage of growth saltwort can be cut with shears. Thus the plant itself remain at the stage at which it does not die and in the future can continue to grow.
Plant growth can be accelerated in the area of 3x3 block by using bone meal in hands or with dispenser.
Just saltwort is capable of giving shoots on neighboring blocks of saline soil.

Something about Muffin (Om Nom Nom)

Muffin can be considered the most nutritious food in mod. He gives the saturation effect for 2 minutes! To achieve this effect, you need to eat a muffin "for dessert", that is, quenching the last few points of hunger. If done correctly, you get a text based prompts )

Updates:

Armor update:

Under the salt lake, you can find blocks of mineral mud. From this mud you can craft mud mask for the body (and soul ;)

Mud Mask is the armor. It is not very strong and does not protect you from much damage, but the mask improves your health and slowly restore it. Just mask extinguish you if you put it in its entirety.

Mud Armor

But be careful! Mud Mask is easily washed off with water ;)

Device update:

This new update SaltyMod!

Now salt can be obtained by evaporation!!!

To do this you need to craft evaporator.

SaltExtractor

This process requires fuel, so take plenty of coal ;)

Evaporator may be filled by right-clicking with bucket in hand or by fluid block above it.

Remember, however, where there is steam, and there is pressure. Never block the outlet of the extractor until it works.

Enjoy!

Environment update:

Ho-ho! You thought that this end the useful properties of salt?
Certainly not!
No wonder that the salt can change the weather?
Yes! If you spray it above the clouds, you can make rain.

Now you can craft the Rainmaker!

Version 1.7.e (05.03.2016)

I think that many who use the version 1.7.10 are faced with the disappearance of Empty Buckets after crafting. Unfortunately, I was not able to solve the problem nicely. Therefore, I decided to go through curves.
In this version Buckets of Water behave normally. However, this had to change the recipe of Milk Bucket.
Now you need to mix Powdered Milk , the Bucket of Water and Empty Bucket! Then you get a Bucket of Milk and an Empty Bucket.
Yes! This is not a elegant solution. But the only way I was able to save the mod functionality.
