About This Mod

Updated for version 21.1: I updated the mod based on comments regarding issues with the update.

UPDATE: Fixed item icons for Log Spikes and deleted previous ones, I didn't know it wasn't a vanilla asset. I apologize to those who use this mod. The new icons are added back, the same shape of the spike logs, but common colors, I tried to pick up colors so they slightly resemble the spike logs in the game. This is good enough to notice the difference if you pick up an updated spike. This should not affect your game if you have already downloaded this mod, just update it and your icons should appear correctly when connected on the server side. If you have a client, you'll probably never notice. Thanks again for helping this old guy learn something new! Also the localization for the steel Polish language has been fixed, so that it appears correctly.


This is my Alpha 21 server-side update for Better Blocks only. This mod allows more natural development after steel blocks from Vanilla. This mod allows players to move to reinforced steel blocks and then to titanium blocks.


These blocks have increased health, reinforced steel blocks have 20k health, and titanium blocks have 30k health. These units also correspond to vanilla progression and have increased explosion resistance. Personally, I think this mod is great for games with increased complexity, increased damage to Bloodmoon or custom zombies.


To update the blocks, just create the Steel Pole in the forge, only 1 Steel Pole is required to update the block. To upgrade the unit to titanium, you need 1 steel pole, 2 forged steel and 1 oil to manufacture titanium pole on the workbench. Titanium pole can also be found in some tool boxes when you advance sufficiently in the game. Players can also create blocks right in the workbench, like cobblestones and concrete blocks.


Finally, I brought back the spikes from the logs, which can be completely upgraded from wood to titan using the same materials. Log spikes can also be picked up, so be careful not to accidentally grab them. You can manufacture wooden or iron spikes directly and upgrade them from there.


I don't plan to update or modify this mod, as it works great for my friends and me. If you see any problems, I'll check the comments sometimes, but I'm the dad-gamer who learned how to make XML fashion, I don't have programming/coding/modding experience other than what I've learned playing with XML since A19. All my fashions you can use at your own risk, but they work perfectly with me and my friends both in saved games and in new ones.
