Flint and Steel

Flint and Steel is a tool used to make fire in Indev and Infdev. Currently, it must be crafted with a Flint and an Iron Ingot.

Flint counts as a tool, and therefore has a limited amount of uses before running out. Flint and Steel could also be considered a weapon because it can be used to light monsters on fire, this method can be used for killing monsters withouth the risk of taking damage but it's slower and less effective than using a sword.

One possible use of this item is for quick disposal of items which can be accomplished by dropping your items and then lighting the block under them on fire.

It is also quite useful to destroy the leaves of trees whilst leaving the log intact.

In survival multiplayer, fire is the only way to kill mobs at this moment.

Trivia
