About this project
What does Ratmetal add?
Have you ever wanted to turn Rats into metal for tools? No? Well too bad!
Forcefully introducing Ratmetal, your favorite least favorite material!
Using the new Rat mob, which is a silverfish-like (i was to lazy to make a model for a joke mod) mob that spawns in villages, you can obtain Rat dust, which can be smelted using any vanilla heat source (but be warned, the stupider of an idea it is to use it, the longer it'll take!) into a Ratmetal ingot, which can then be crafted into tools and armor and stuff.
But that's not all! Rats have a 5% chance to spawn with The Plague, which infects nearby mobs, applies an annoying overlay, and has a small chance to damage you each tick. Fun! Potions of Plague can also be crafted by brewing a ratmetal nugget into a potion of weakness. (as far as i know it can also be turned into the other potion variants, i didn't bother checking.)
also the armor looks like Doctor4t. because it was funny.
okay that's all bye have fun
