This module allows you to craft lightning rods to summon lightning at any location.
This module adds lightning rods that can summon lightning bolts.  


== Features ==
== Features ==
Throwing a lightning rod on the ground will initiate a countdown of approximately 3 seconds. The time until the rod attracts lightning is displayed above it, and particles are emitted from the rod. During this time, the rod can be picked up again to cancel the countdown. Once the countdown has reached zero, a bolt of lightning is summoned at it's location and the item is destroyed. [[File:Invalid lightning rod.png|thumb|358x358px|Multiple lightning rods in a stack will not strike lightning|alt=]]If there is more than one item in a stack of lightning rods, an error will be displayed above the lightning rod and the countdown will not initiate. This means dying with multiple lightning rods in your inventory will not destroy all the items, but dying with a single lightning rod in your inventory will.  
Throwing a lightning rod on the ground starts a countdown until lightning will strike. The time until lightning strikes is displayed above the rod.

[[File:Invalid lightning rod.png|thumb|358x358px|Multiple lightning rods in a stack will not strike lightning|alt=]]If there is more than one item in a stack of lightning rods, an error will be displayed above the lightning rod and the countdown will stop. This prevents dying with multiple lightning rods in your inventory from summoning lightning and destroying all your items, but dying with a single lightning rod in your inventory will.  
Dropping a lightning rod onto a purpur block, will turn it into a Shulker upon the lightning strike. Dropping a lightning rod onto a creeper spawner will convert it into a charged creeper spawner.

=== Special Effects ===
Striking a purpur block with lightning will transform it into a Shulker. These shulkers drop shulker shells less often than naturally occurring shulkers.
Striking a creeper spawner with lightning changes the spawner into a charged creeper spawner.[[File:Lightning shulker.gif|none|Creating a shulker using Lightning Rods|alt=|thumb|450x450px]]

When a shulker is created with lightning rods, it will have a 1/10 chance to drop a shulker shell upon death. Looting does not affect this drop rate.
