Upon filling the crafting table with coal (3x3 of coal) it will create a coal block which is black in color and will burn for up to 10 minutes and melt up to a 10 block radius around it whilest it burns. This could be useful in getting rid of snow and making lots of light. maybe in making traps too... If placed in a furnace the coal block could smelt up to 10 stacks of <any smeltable item>
Next you could use coal and clay balls in the same way you would normaly craft TNT and it would give you a cinder block. This would be like a black stone block in which breaks if there is more then 10 blocks placed up top of it. If would have the same physics as sand or gravel in how it would fall if placed in the air or upon
having the block below it removed.
coal = O
gunpowder = /\
string = ~
redstone = <\
iron ingot = [_]
and you craft this:
<\
O /\ ~
[_]
you get a grenade in which you can throw like an egg. it will explode after 5 seconds and destroy a 1block radius ( not very good for mining). it does major damage to mobs and would insta-kill most mobs.
I'm going to have to say no to the grenade type thing and the burning coal idea.
I would like a way to store coal as it just takes up so much space.
As for using it in a furnace, 10 stacks of 64 items is a very OP considering 1 coal = 8 item smelts. The coal block in my opinion should smelt 72 items (9 coal * 8 items each).
As for the cinder block, thats pretty neat too except it shouldn't have physics, it would still break if 10+ blocks are on top of it as that is a great idea.
The idea of a grenade made with coal is stupid. It should be like the crafting of tnt but instead of sand it should use a metal of some kind.
The coal block isn't a bad idea but I think it would be better adapted purely as a storage block. Having anything other than lava that burns longer than coal is fairly unbalanced, and if you want to smelt that much stuff at a time in one furnace, you will be waiting a helluva long time for it to finish.
I think the grenade is a bad idea because those items are kind of common and are a major greifing tool if you have a lot of them. Maybe blaze powder could be used because it is harder to find.
