Create Automaton: Reconfiguration

by mrtophatt

Create Automaton: Reconfiguration lets a player change their Create Automaton abilities after the initial selection screen has already been used.

FabricServer required, client optionalMIT LicenseOpen source1.20 – 1.20.1

What it does

The addon removes the first-time ability selection screen that normally limits a player to Andesite, Copper, Brass and age-based choices. Instead, a player can pick an extra doodad for other ages, with each option tied to its corresponding casing. Holding a wrench in one hand while an item is held in the other grants the ability that matches that item.

Reconfiguration adds a power to the base Create Automaton abilities. Holding the Highlight Players Spectators key for five seconds starts a windup timer, and when it finishes the current ability is replaced by the corresponding one for the age, at a cost of 200 Stress 2. Restarting the key hold, leaving the ground, or switching to an invalid item resets the windup. After a replacement, a one-minute cooldown applies.

The addon requires Origins + Create: Automaton, and it runs on the server. Clients may install it too, but a player joining a server that has it does not need to. Files are published for Fabric only, for Minecraft 1.20 and 1.20.1, and the code is released under the MIT License as open source.

Key features

  1. Ability reconfiguration

    Abilities can be swapped after the first selection, rather than being fixed once the initial screen is passed.

  2. Windup timer

    Holding the highlight key for five seconds starts a timer that must complete before an ability is replaced.

  3. Item-based abilities

    A wrench held in one hand, with an item in the other, selects an ability matching the held item.

  4. Replacement cooldown

    Once an ability is replaced, a one-minute cooldown follows before another change can happen.

Questions

Does Create Automaton: Reconfiguration need Origins + Create: Automaton?

Yes. Origins + Create: Automaton is a required dependency, and the addon is built on top of it.

Does the server need the addon, and do players?

The server must run the addon, while players may add it to their clients. Installing it on the server alone is enough for players to join.

Which Minecraft versions does the addon support?

Files cover 1.20 and 1.20.1, and the latest Fabric file is 1.1.2-1.1+mod for 1.20.1, published on 2026-07-27.
