HOW IT ALL WORKS
🎁 Wrapping Table & Gift System
The Wrapping Table allows you to wrap almost any item into a festive gift that can be placed, stored, or opened later.
🧻 Crafting Wrapping Paper
- Open the Wrapping Table.
- Each wrapping paper color is crafted separately.
- The wrapping paper color determines the final gift appearance.
- Each craft produces 1× Wrapping Paper.
📦 Wrapping an Item
- Open the Wrapping Box on the table.
- Place exactly two items inside:
- 1× Wrapping Paper
- 1× Item you want to wrap
- Close the box.
When the box is not being used, it will occasionally give a small shake to remind you that it is interactive.
While wrapping:
- The box will blink.
- The existing crafting sound plays.
When wrapping is complete:
- The box makes a small jump.
- It spins 360° around its own axis.
- It lands back on the table.
- A gift box is created.
- The gift color matches the wrapping paper used.
🎉 Using a Gift
You can:
- Place the gift as decoration, put it on an Item Stand, or throw it under the tree.
- Store it in containers.
- Consume it from your inventory to open it.
⚠ The gift must be opened from your inventory, not from the ground.
When opened, the gift restores the original item with its saved information:
- Same stack size.
- Same quality.
- Same durability.
- Same variant.
✔ Safe across game restarts
✔ Multiplayer & dedicated server safe
⚠ Important Wrapping Notes
- The Wrapping Box only works with 1 wrapping paper + 1 item.
- Inventory must have free space when opening a gift.
- Each wrapping paper corresponds to a specific gift color.
- The wrapping system now validates the result before consuming the wrapping materials.
Enjoy spreading festive surprises! 🎄

🚂 Interactive Decorations
Several decorations include interactions instead of being purely decorative:

- Christmas Train: Start or stop the train by interacting with the locomotive. The wagons are rideable while the train circles the track.
- Animated Lights: Change their blinking speed and synchronize connected lights of the same type.
- Music Box: Interact with it to control its animation and music.
- Reindeer: Pet a reindeer and it may sneeze out a Freeze Gland as a festive gift.
- Wrapping Box: Shakes occasionally while idle and performs a jump-and-spin animation when a gift finishes wrapping.
- Christmas Stockings: Store gifts created with the Wrapping Table.
🪑 Santa’s Christmas Throne (M_Christmas_Throne)
The Santa’s Christmas Throne is more than a decorative seat — it’s a centerpiece of your festive hall.
- Sit normally on the main throne seat.
- Sit on each armrest (left and right) for roleplay, storytelling, or photos.
- Works seamlessly in multiplayer, allowing multiple Vikings to share the throne.
Pair it with banners, garlands, and Christmas trees for a full Yule throne room experience.
