Currently, while exploring Nether Fortresses we may come across loot chests made of wood. This is not really coherent with the steril hell-ish dimention that is the Nether. Thinking about what could make more sense in this dimension, I came up with a concept that could add much more than a simple retextured chest : Nether Pots.
Nether Pots could be found in Nether Fortresses instead of regular chest. The loot that it contains would stay the same but hey could also be crafted by players by creating a U shape with nether wart blocks in a crafting tables. Just like chests, they would drop all the items they contain when broken. Here is a concept model I made for this new block :
To allow players to use it for decoration in different build styles, it would also be dyeable just like shulker boxes.
What i described until there is pretty basic but here comes the intresting part : Nether pots would be moveable by pistons and would be affected by gravity !
With this simple feature, nether pots now become an unique block allowing for all sorts of creative uses. I'm pretty sure the redstone community would quickly create a ton of unique contraptions taking avantage of this characteristic as it always do.
I think this feature could bring a lot to Minecraft by allowing players to enhance interiors, builds, redstone machines and more.
