Dynamic Iron Oxidation & Environmental Corrosion.

Overview

Rusted expands upon Minecraft's vanilla copper oxidation mechanics by introducing dynamic weathering to iron blocks and structural variants. Metal structures realistically corrode over time, adding natural age, texture, and visual depth to your builds.

Features

Oxidation System: Iron blocks and structural variants naturally progress through four distinct rust stages.
Environmental Accelerators: Weather exposure and water contact increase the rate of corrosion.
Maintenance: Lock blocks at any oxidation state using Honeycomb, or strip rust and wax using an Axe.
Customization & Localization: Fully configurable mechanics with native support for multiple languages.

Integrations & Compatibility

Create Mod: Full compatibility with Create's Industrial Iron blocks, windows, and window panes.
Recipe Viewers: Native support for EMI, JEI, and REI to display oxidation cycles and interaction outcomes.

Requirements

To ensure compatibility, please use the following versions:

Minecraft: 1.21.1 / 1.20.1
NeoForge / Forge
Create (Optional): 6.0.6 or higher
