Description

Turn honeycombs into hard wax (x3), smelt the hard wax to get a useable wax!  **Requires Fabric API.**   The usable wax can be used directly on coppper to wax it, or in a crafting table with copper blocks, just like honeycombs.  One honeycomb now yields two candles (when using wax as a replacement), with one wax leftover. The candle recipe for wax is two wax stacked on top of each other, with a string on top of them, it yields two candles. * String * Wax * Wax ## **Developers** Wax also introduces a few new tags: __waxmod:waxes__ (all waxes in all of their states + honeycomb), __waxmod:softwaxes__ (only smelted/soft waxes), __waxmod:hardwaxes__  Using tags is recommended for any mod adding compatibility as there will likely be new waxes added in the future.  All vanilla recipes for waxing accept the #waxmod:waxes tag.
