New: Ruby Tools+

Ruby Tools+ adds a new ruby ore, ruby blocks, and a full set of ruby tools to Minetest (Luanti), expanding late-game progression with ruby-based materials.

Rubies generate deep underground, slightly above diamond level and in larger veins, providing a rewarding new tier for players who enjoy extended mining and resource progression. The mod includes a ruby sword, pickaxe, axe, shovel, and hoe, all carefully balanced around diamond-tier gameplay with adjusted durability, mining speed, and combat damage.

In addition to tools and materials, Ruby Tools+ also introduces machine-based processing for advanced items and alloys. Details about machines, fuel usage, and alloy recipes are documented in README.md to keep the mod intuitive and progression-focused.

The mod is designed to be lightweight, easy to integrate into existing worlds, and fully compatible with the default Minetest (Luanti) game.
