Create: Arm Limit
by Bzden4ik
Create: Arm Limit lets a Create Mechanical Arm pick a set number of items per cycle instead of always grabbing a full stack.
What it does
The arm gains a configurable pickup count, so a contraption can move exactly the amount it needs rather than 64 items at a time. Holding right-click on the arm opens a settings window where the limit and an item filter are set, and a Distribution Method option controls how items are handed out. Community suggestions are collected in the issue tracker on GitHub. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Files are published for NeoForge 1.21.1 only, under the MIT License, and the project is open source.
