About this project

What does Paints add?

Had an idea to build a Moomin house? Missing blue planks? Paints mod for the rescue!

New blocks

Planks, plank slabs, plank stairs in new colors: white, black, red, green, blue, yellow, orange, grey, purple, dark green

Pigments

Paint preparation

First you need to create white paint, which is base for all other paint colors. To create white paint mix 10 liters of limewater with 1 fat.

To create other colors paint mix 1 pigment with 10 litres of white paint.

Painting planks

Simply put planks / plank slabs / plank stairs into a barrel with paint. One plank will consume 1 litre of paint.

Roadmap

  • Brush tool to paint existing blocks
  • Color blocks programatically instead of defining custom textures
  • More paintable blocks (fences, linen, doors?)
