Create - a mod for Minecraft

What does Create do?

Create adds mechanical automation: rotating shafts, gears, transport tapes, assembly lines and a variety of designs.

Mechanics instead of magic blocks

Create is built around rotational energy and motion transfer. Shafts, gears, belts, and mechanical assemblies are connected into working structures rather than existing as unrelated interface buttons. From them, conveyors, sorting of items, processing lines and multi-stage production systems are assembled. A characteristic feature of Create is that the mechanisms are visible right in the world and often become part of the architecture of buildings.

How automation works

A simple line can move resources from one operation to another, and a developed factory connects different ways of processing objects into a single chain. The direction of rotation, speed and limitations of each mechanism are important. Large factories have a price tag: active designs put a strain on the game and require space. To play together, agree in advance on the composition of the modpack and dependencies: discrepant versions of mods on the client and server can interfere with the connection.

Where to Start Construction

The first small installation may consist of a rotation source, motion transfer and one object processing mechanism. When the principle is clear, conveyors, filtration and warehouses are added. In a complex factory, it is important to keep track of where resources are directed and where they accumulate: stopping a single line can disrupt the entire chain.
