The dice can also be rolled via rightclick.
The dice also come with a full sound set, with placing, punching and nice rolling sounds.
The “purpose” of this is just for fun. It is nothing meaningful. ;-)

Basic crafting
To craft dice, you have to place any kind of wood in a 3×3 grid like this:
- Code: Select all
w.w
.w.
w.w
w = any kind of wood (group "wood")
. = nothing
The result is 5 white dice.
The crafting recipe resembles the number 5 on the dice. :-)
Color crafts
If you use the “dye” mod, the following additional shapeless recipes are available:
- 1 white dice: 1 red dice, 1 white dye and 1 black dye
- 1 red dice: 1 white dice, 1 red dye and 1 white dye
How to use
If you place a dice, it will face a random direction and turned randomly.
You can mine dice in half a second without any tool, but it can be faster with “choppy” tools (i.e. axes).
To roll the dice, press the use key (right click) while pointing to it. So you don’t have to mine and place it again.
If you don’t want to throw the dice but want to build something to it, you have to rightclick it while you hold the sneak key (shift).
Careful: The dice are flammable!

Old “dice” mod
There was a similar mod, but it was hosted on Ubuntu One, which is dead now. >_>.
