What it does

Caustics builds a transportation network out of crystals. Each crystal type has its own purpose, and clusters of crystals join together through crystal block nodes. The mod requires Fabric API and mixson, and it runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Builds are published for Fabric only, with 0.1.1 for 26.1.2 as the latest file under the beta channel, and the code is released under the MIT License.

Key features

  1. Several crystal types

    The mod adds multiple new crystal types, each serving a separate function within the network.

  2. Clustered crystal nodes

    Crystals can be joined into clusters through a crystal block form that acts as a node.

  3. Crystal-based transport

    Infrastructure built from crystals forms a transportation system that connects the nodes.
