Atomic
Atomic is a Legacy Fabric mod for Beta that bundles a handful of small, individually toggleable gameplay tweaks.
What it does
Each tweak in Atomic can be switched on or off on its own, so a server or player can keep only the changes it wants. The changes touch basket behavior, workbench interaction, crafting, redstone ore and pistons, and storage blocks. Atomic is server required and client optional: the author notes say it works on a server alone, though it runs more smoothly when players also install it on their client.
The mod is published for Legacy Fabric and targets the single game version b1.7.3. Snapshot builds are published, and the source code is public under the MIT License, which makes Atomic open source. The mod is in the Game mechanics category with a secondary Utility tag.
Key features
Basket item redirection
Items dropped from a basket fall downward into inventories placed directly below it, instead of landing on the ground.
Workbench access for activators
Activators, such as dispensers, can interact with workbenches, which vanilla Beta does not allow.
Crafting from nine slots
Recipes can draw from nine inventory slots and ignore the currently selected slot.
Redstone ore signaling
Redstone ore passes redstone signals along, in the manner of modern target blocks.
Extra steel pistons processing
Steel pistons gain an additional processing function, and storage blocks can be broken apart into their components.

Use cases
Who it’s for: Server owners who want a few targeted gameplay changes on a Beta world, and players who prefer those changes without adopting a larger overhaul.

What the author says
A mod for Better Than Adventure! that adds a few small tweaks, all of which are individually toggleable. It works fine server-side, but works best if installed on the client. Reworks the basket interaction, causing it to flip and drop its items downwards or into inventories directly below it.
