Crystalix

Crystalix is a mod centered around glass with a bunch of properties that can be applied to it.

Information

• Adds Crystalix Glass, a glass block which can hold any mix and match of properties you like.
• Adds the Crystalix Wand, which is used to apply properties to the Crystalix Glass.
• Any property can be mixed with any other property, so you can decide yourself which combination works best.

The Crystalix Wand

• Using the wand on a Crystalix Glass block applies the stored properties to that block.
• Crouching while using the wand will apply the stored properties to all connected blocks up to a configurable limit.
• If the wand is held in your Offhand, the properties will be applied immediately when placing the block.
• Pressing V opens the radial editor, which allows you to customize the settings of the wand, including a color picker screen.
• Pressing X while looking at a Crystalix Glass block will copy its properties to the wand.
• Pressing Left Control toggles whether the wand should apply color as well or the properties only.

Properties

Invisibility

• Makes the block fully invisible.
• Useful for creating barrier-like blocks or if you simply want an invisible light or redstone source.

Material

• Changes the base texture of the block.
• Cycles between the available glass looks:
  • Normal : Default Vanilla glass look.
  • Bordered : Glass without the scratches on the texture and only a border.
  • Clear : Completely clear glass with no texture.

Tinted

• Switches between a tinted and a clear texture style.
• Matches the vanilla tinted glass vs default glass look.

Color

• Allows you to select any color via the color picker.
• You can use any RGB or HEX color freely.

Waterloggable

• Decides whether the block is allowed to change its waterlogged state.
• If disabled, you cannot remove water from the block if any is applied or add any if none is applied.
• If enabled, you can add and remove water like any other waterloggable block.

Reinforced

• Makes the block completely indestructible to any force but players mining it.
• Fully wither- and blastproof and will also contain explosions within it to prevent any damage from passing through the block.
• Also increases the time it takes for the block to be mined by 10x.

Shadeless

• Removes the shading effect from the block.
• Means no shadows will be rendered on the block which can be used for a more flat look.

Redstone

• Makes the block emit a configurable redstone signal from 0 to 15.
• Lets you use the block as a redstone source with a specific signal level.

Conductor

• Makes the block conduct redstone like a solid block.
• Useful if you want to change the typical behavior of glass not transmitting signals.

Ghost

• Changes who can pass through the block:
  • nothing
  • everything
  • only players
  • everything except players
  • only monsters
  • everything except monsters
  • only animals
  • everything except animals
  • only adult creatures
  • everything except adult creatures
• Useful for mob filtering or creating passageways for players only

Light

• Cycles through several lighting modes:
  • None for no special behavior.
  • Light to emit a light level of 15.
  • Dark to block light from passing through the block.
  • Fake Light to visually glow without the real gameplay impact of normal light emission.
  • Fake Dark to visually appear dark while keeping the real light behavior separate.

Compatibility

Jade

• Displays the stored properties of the glass block in the tooltip.
• By default the tooltip is only shown while the player is holding the wand.
• This can be changed via the jadeMode client config:
  • ALWAYS : Always show the tooltip.
  • WAND : Show the tooltip only while holding a wand. (Default)
  • NEVER : Never show the tooltip.

Framed Blocks

• Crystalix Glass can be placed into framed blocks; however, due to the way framed blocks function, unfortunately not all properties will function properly.
• Texture changes will function as normal, including color, material, tinted, shadeless and the ability to switch between light and no effect.
• All other properties cannot be supported correctly
