About the mod

Natural Charcoal makes wildfires useful! Whenever a log is destroyed via fire, it has a chance to drop charcoal. Charcoal is immune to fire, so it doesn't get destroyed by other fires nearby. By default it's a 2/3 chance for one to generate, though this can be changed in the config.

It is also possible to put logs next to a campfire to turn them into charcoal. This is slightly faster than using a furnace: Four pieces in 30 seconds instead of 40 when smelted.
