Extra Glass Blocks

Description
Check out another mod of mine that does a similar thing to this one, but for clay bricks instead: Extra Clay Bricks

Making glass blocks takes quite a bit more effort than making stone blocks, but you only get 1 instead of 4... that seems a bit unfair. You need sand and fuel for glass blocks, and only a single rock for rock blocks! And what about clear glass? You need sand, fuel and pearlash (which requires making ash, then potash...) Who thought that made sense?!

This mod simply fixes that. It adds two new reactions in the glass furnace.

"Make a stack of green glass blocks" makes 4 green glass blocks using one sand and one fuel.
"Make a stack of clear glass blocks" makes 8 clear glass blocks using one sand, one pearlash and one fuel.

Should be compatible with any mod as it adds new reactions to the glass furnace.


If you want to change the ouput values, you can do so pretty easily. Open up reaction_extraglassblocks.txt and look for the line that reads:

[PRODUCT:100:4:BLOCKS:NONE:GLASS_GREEN]

for the green glass blocks, or

[PRODUCT:100:8:BLOCKS:NONE:GLASS_CLEAR]

In each case, the second number (the 4 for green glass, 8 for clear glass) can be changed to whatever you like to get more or less :) Note: this change has to be done before world generation.
