Usage
When powered, an Azure Magnet repulses magnetic blocks and items in the direction it's facing. Any blocks repulsed by the Magnet cannot be broken until they have left the magnet's range.
Holding an Azure or Scarlet Neodymium Ingot allows the player to see the Azure Magnet's repulsion range. The Magnet starts with a range of 5 blocks (meaning it would repulse items/blocks within 5 blocks), but using Azure Neodymium Ingots on the Magnet increases its repulsion range by 1 block per ingot (up to a maximum of 65 blocks), while using Scarlet Neodymium Ingots on the Magnet reduces its range (down to a minimum of 1 block). Breaking the Magnet drops the Magnet itself, as well as all of the ingots that were used to alter its range.
Unlike a Scarlet Magnet, which can attract a magnetic block at any point within its range, an Azure Magnet may fail to repulse a block if the block is near the end of the magnet's range. When this happens, the block still becomes an indestructible entity as if it were actively being repulsed, but will remain stationary.
