Flint and Tinder

A slower, cheaper fire starter. Unlike a vanilla flint and steel, the Flint and Tinder must be held to use, like drawing a bow, before it produces a flame.

Usage

1. Aim at the block you want to light.
2. Hold right-click. A bow-style holding animation plays and smoke begins drifting up from the spot you are looking at.
3. Keep holding for about two seconds. Releasing early cancels and nothing is lit.
4. When the use completes, the block you are looking at is ignited. Fire appears on the face you targeted, or campfires, candles, and TNT light directly.

You can retarget while holding. The fire (or lit block) is determined by where you are looking the moment the use finishes, not where you started.

Recipe

Notes

• Low durability: 8 uses.
• Counts as a fire starter for any block that responds to one.
