# Rudimentary<\/p>\n

Slow down the early game when creating a new world by forcing players to gather resources with their hand before
\nchopping down trees.<\/p>\n

Rudimentary adds the following mechanics:<\/p>\n

## Flint Tools<\/p>\n

Players cannot break logs with their fists, but instead need to gather flint, sticks and flax (obtained by breaking
\ngrass) to craft a flint hatchet. Rudimentary also provides a flint pickaxe.<\/p>\n

## Unlit campfires<\/p>\n

Campfires are now unlit when placed down. Players can craft fire starters from sticks and flax to ignite them without
\nhaving to acquire iron.<\/p>\n

## Brick Furnace<\/p>\n

A slow blast furnace which requires a bit more work to get than a normal furnace.
\nIt is recommended that you make vanilla furnaces harder to get (e.g.
\nusing Privileged), otherwise brick furnaces don’t make much sense.<\/p>\n

The brick furnace is accompanied by a new set of brick blocks.<\/p>\n

## Dependencies<\/p>\n

Rudimentary only depends on Fabric API, but a recipe viewer is recommended.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
