The Coke Oven Brick is a block added by the Railcraft mod. It is used in the construction of the Coke Oven, a multi-block structure that produces Coal Coke and Creosote from Coal. When placed in the world, a Coke Oven Brick will constantly check to see whether or not it is part of a Coke Oven. These checks stop when the Coke Oven structure is completed, indicated by the appearance of "windows" on the sides of the structure. While the checks performed by a single incomplete Coke Oven structure are likely negligible, the usage of Coke Oven Bricks on a large scale can cause an accumulation of running checks, eventually leading to lag. Railcraft offers an alternative in the form of Sandy Bricks, which are visually identical to Coke Oven Bricks but do not form Coke Ovens and do not lead to lag when used on a large scale.
