Bats to Gunpowder

New way to obtain gunpowder

This modification offers an alternative method for creating gunpowder in Minecraft. Now bats leave behind guano, which can be collected with a shovel. The obtained guano needs to be placed in a cauldron with water to extract saltpeter.

Creation process

For the complete gunpowder production cycle, you'll need to find sulfur ore that generates underground. After mining sulfur ore, you'll get sulfur dust. By combining sulfur dust, saltpeter, and charcoal, you can create gunpowder. All recipes are available for viewing through JEI.

Bat farming

To simplify guano collection, you can create a bat farm. Use a glass bottle to catch a bat, then move it to the desired location. You can also leash a bat for convenient keeping.
