Magic Tree Cores

From The Twilight Forest Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Magic Trees are pleasing to look at, but their true power lies in their Magic Tree Core. When first grown, a core is dormant, but can be activated in the same manner as a lever; it will change in colour and appearance indicating whether it is active or inactive. All of these cores' effects take place within a 33x33 square, centered on the core.

One must be careful when selecting a location for their Magical Tree, as a no core can be harvested, even with Silk Touch. Attempting to break it will drop as it's respective log type, its magical power dispersed to the winds. However, some experts know that the these cores are able to be relocated with the right techniques.

Timewood Clock[edit]

The Timewood Clock is a Magical Core that grows within the trunk of a Tree of Time. This core looks like a Timewood Log with a grayed out clock in the middle. When right-clicked, the core will change appearance, turning more similar to a Clock, and perhaps appropriately, it will begin to create a faint ticking noise. Adventurers notice that the Timewood Clock will draws upon the magical energies in the world and affect the local time continuum; causing occasional acceleration for suitable blocks within it's range, speeding up things such as crop growth and various other tile entities are sped up. Adventurers have noticed that this block will always appear on the Western side of a Tree of Time, regardless of how it was planted or grown.

Heart of Transformation[edit]

The Heart of Transformation is a Magical Core that grows within the trunk of a Tree of Transformation. This core looks like a Transwood Log with a grayed out heart in the middle. When right-clicked and activated, the core will change appearance, turning a light blue colour, and the Transformation Leaves on the tree will emit more particles. Adventurers notice that the Heart of Transformation will draw upon the magical energies in the world and ground them into the earth, causing a similar effect seen in Enchanted Forest biomes, and transforming the biome into the Enchanted Forest. It has also been reported that strange magical sounds emanating from the core when activated, similar to the sounds of a Noteblock.

Minewood Core[edit]

A Minewood Core is a core that grows on the Miner's Tree. This core looks like a Minewood Log, except for a small, emerald like gem in the middle. When right-clicked, the core will change appearance, turning the gem green. Activating this powerful Magical Core will cause ores to be pulled from the earth beneath the tree to be deposited on the surface for easy mining, with exception of Coal Ore. Adventurers who attempt to find the emerged ores' original location will find that the Minewood Core will always successfully replace the displaced ores with Stone.

Sortingwood Engine[edit]

The Sortingwood Engine is a core that grows from a Sorting Tree. This core looks like a Sortingwood Log, except for a closed eye in the middle. When right-clicked, eye will awaken and begin using magical powers to will the contents of closeby chests into various chests nearby within the core's range. Adventurers may notice that loot in chests near the Sortingwood Engine will effectively become sorted over time, moving the smaller stacks of any item from one chest to a chest with a larger stack of that item.
