### BlockDecoAoE

This block allows a buff to be emitted from it, such as the campfire's heat.  The Block is always active, thus always radiating this buff when a player is nearby.


Usage: 
```xml
<property name="Class" value="DecoAoE, SCore" />
<property name="ActiveRadiusEffects" value="buffCampfireAOE(3)"/>
```

Full Example:
```xml
<block name="sphereiiAoETest">

	<property name="Class" value="DecoAoE, SCore" />
	<property name="ActiveRadiusEffects" value="buffCampfireAOE(3)"/>

	<property name="Material" value="Mwood_weak"/>
	<property name="Tags" value="coalBurnedDmg"/>
	<property name="StabilitySupport" value="false"/>
	<property name="Shape" value="Ext3dModel"/>
	<property name="Texture" value="293"/>

	<property name="VehicleHitScale" value="999"/>
	<property name="FilterTags" value="MC_outdoor,SC_decor"/>
</block>
```


### BlockFarmPlotSDX

This block is a replacement to vanilla's FarmPlot block, with additional hooks into the FarmPlotManager. The FarmPlotManager allows plants and planters to require water to grow.

Usage:

```xml
<property name="Class" value="FarmPlotSDX, SCore" />
```

XPath Usage, to update all vanilla farmplots to FarmPlotSDX:

```xml
<!-- Farming Plot hooks -->
<append xpath="/blocks/block[starts-with(@name, 'farmPlot')]">
	<property name="Class" value="FarmPlotSDX, SCore" />
</append>
```

### BlockCropControlPanel 
[Advanced Farming Feature] (../../Documentation/CropManagement/ReadMe.md) 

This block is a test control panel, allowing players to turn on water particles and test to see if water is available on connected pipes.

Usage:
```xml
<property name="Class" value="CropControlPanel, SCore" />
<property name="ControlPanelName" value="debugcontrolpanel" />
```

Full Example:
```xml
<block name="cropControlPanelBase01">
	<property name="Extends" value="controlPanelBase01"/>
	<property name="Shape" value="ModelEntity"/>
	<property name="Model" value="Entities/Industrial/controlPanelBase_02Prefab"/>
	<property name="CustomIcon" value="controlPanelBase01" />
	<property name="Class" value="CropControlPanel, SCore" />
	<property name="ControlPanelName" value="debugcontrolpanel" />
	<property name="ActivateSound" value="button4"/>
</block>
```


### BlockMortSpawner

This block will act as an entity spawner. 

Note: It's an older class made by Mortelentus and brought forward by sphereii. No new features are being added, and as time goes on, functionality may be reduced.
