Want a little more realism in your survival? With this mod, you have to light your furnaces yourself. No more magic flames, your furnace needs a tiny bit of attention.


Manual furnace lighting with flexible ignition options. Works with vanilla and many modded blocks, supports custom ignition items, reacts to the environment (fire, rain), and adds a simple early game progression using natural finds.
Find Switchgrass. It looks like normal grass, but with a warmer yellow green tint. Its color shifts with the biome and it grows over time from Stage 1 to Stage 3.
Harvesting
Ignition

Put the right ingredients and fuel inside the furnace, then ignite it to start cooking. It runs until the flame goes out. If you are low on fiber, try to keep the flame going so you have to relight less often. Your furnace is basically a tiny campfire with responsibilities in case you need it.
For modpack creators, use the Bookling Gear configuration menu to tweak Sparkling Flint requirements, manage the ignition item list, toggle Switchgrass world generation, and adjust many other options to fit your pack.
The mod also adds three special ignition methods.

Furnaces can also ignite from the environment, depending on where you place them.
Place a furnace over lava, fire, any other configured hot block, or a block in its lit state. It will ignite automatically like vanilla, and no ignition item is needed.
If the furnace is exposed to rain during rain or thunder, this method is disabled and you must light it manually.

If you get lost, open the Guide Book on the right side of the compatible furnace GUIs.
It shows quick tips for the current block, including how to ignite and a few extra notes.
If you do not see the "LIT" banner, that furnace may not be supported or compatibility is disabled.
Want a more natural progression? Check the advancements. They guide you through the mod step by step and help you learn by playing, not by guessing.
Campfires and selected compatible modded blocks are placed in their unlit form.
Light them after placing using your ignition items. You can disable this in the Bookling Gear settings.
More compatibilities coming soon!
