Create: Always Backtank
by pat600130
Create: Always Backtank is a Forge and NeoForge addon that makes air backtanks visible at all times in the Create backtank display.
What it does
The addon changes how the regular Create backtank display works, so the remaining air in a backtank stays on screen without needing to be triggered. Players can see exactly how much time is left at any moment. It is an addon for Create and needs Create installed to run. The code is under the MIT License and is open source, with a public source code repository and issue tracker. Builds cover 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, and the environment is client and server.
