Crafting Recipes:
To make slabs from this mod you will have to craft them in the following shape:
You can also turn slabs into full blocks by placing them into 2 crafting grids.
You can convert vanilla slabs to mod slabs, and vice-versa, by simply placing them in the crafting table.
Snow slabs are crafting with 4 snow layers (shapeless recipe).
How to use:
Placement mode and Axis mode:
The mod implements ‘placement modes’. They basically tell Minecraft how to place slabs (horizontally, vertically, ‘on-axis’ (aka in-the-middle) or sloped). The current placement mode is displayed in the top-left corner of the screen if a slab from this mod is in your hands. To cycle through them use F9 (to cycle backward) and F10 (to cycle forwards).
Types of placement modes:
- Vanilla – slab placement is equal to original slabs
- Vertical – slabs are placed vertically on the side of the block at which you are looking at
- Faced – slabs stick to the face of the block you are looking at
- Slope – slabs are placed on a 45-degree angle (useful for diagonal builds)
- Rotational – slabs are placed vertically pointing according to your facing
- Random – slabs are placed randomly (useful for disaster-type buildings)
Some blocks like logs, hay bales, pillar quartz and pillar purpur blocks are directional, meaning they face a certain axis. Axis modes do what placement modes do – they tell Minecraft what axis should the block you are about to place face. The current axis mode is displayed under the current placement mode only if you’re holding a ‘directional slab’. If you’re holding a ‘directional slab’ in your hands, F9 cycles forward through placement modes, but F10 cycles through axis modes.
There are 3 axis modes:
- X-axis
- Y-axis
- Z-axis.
