# Copper Powered Rails 🚄

#### 🧠 How It Works

In vanilla Minecraft:

* **Powered Rails** require **6 gold ingots** to craft just **6 rails**.
* Gold is relatively rare early on and may be prioritized for other items (apples, tools, piglin trading, etc.).

With this datapack:

* A new **crafting recipe** is added that lets you use **copper ingots** in place of **gold**.
* The recipe mirrors the vanilla powered rail recipe, but with **copper**:

**📦 Crafting Recipe:**

```
[Copper] [Stick] [Copper]
[Copper] [Redstone] [Copper]
[Copper] [Stick] [Copper]
```

➡️ Yields: **6 Powered Rails**

Note: The original **gold recipe still works** — this recipe is added **alongside** vanilla functionality.
