Usage[]
Mortar is used by left-clicking. The piece of mortar will be consumed and any Cobblestone, Cracked Stone Bricks, Mossy Stone Bricks, and Stone Bricks in front of the player will be turned into Stone bricks or Blue bricks depending on when the mortar is applied. Regular stone is not affected.
Using a piece of mortar will upgrade a 7x7x7 cubic area in front of the player.
Using mortar before the mobs are released results in blue bricks and using it after results in stone bricks.
NOTE : Left-clicking with mortar will use it, whether or not there are blocks to be upgraded. This means it can be wasted easily if not careful.
NOTE: After the Nismas Update, left-clicking with mortar on a wall after mobs are released has a 10% chance of making the stone blue.
