Create: Factory Controller

by nbcss

With Create: Factory Controller, a single block can stand in for a wall of factory gauges, giving Create logistics a central dashboard for managing them.

What it does

A factory controller holds a network of Create factory gauges and exposes them on one virtual dashboard. Players can place gauges through the controller, tune new gauges to match existing ones, select several gauges at once and save setups as blueprints. Item count labels can be viewed for all gauges together, and the controller can be disabled with a redstone signal. Existing gauge walls can be imported into a controller, and individual connection arrows can have their bending path changed.

Because it reproduces the vanilla factory gauge logic rather than altering it, the mod leaves stock gauge behavior untouched. Gauges placed through a factory controller receive the mod's extra functions, while ordinary gauges do not. Display Link can read information from the setup, and items added by other mods are only covered after explicit support is written for them. Create is required, and Create: Deployer API is optional. The mod runs on Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, and both the server and every player need it. Its source code is open source under the MIT License, and public links to the source, issue tracker and wiki are available.

Key features

  1. Centralized gauge dashboard

    A factory controller shows its connected factory gauges on a virtual dashboard for advanced logistics control.

  2. Blueprints and bulk editing

    Several gauges can be selected and moved at once, and setups can be saved as blueprints for reuse.

  3. Wall import

    Existing factory gauge walls can be imported into a controller, condensing them into a single block.

  4. Redstone and display options

    The controller can be disabled with redstone, and Display Link can show information from its gauges.

How it compares

Full comparison

Create Factory Logistics is a separate Forge and NeoForge option for 1.20.1 – 1.21.1, running client and server, but it is not open source and is released under All rights reserved. Create: Extra Gauges also runs client and server on Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 – 1.21.1 and is open source under the MIT License, adding extra gauge types rather than a controller. Create: Better Factory Gauge targets NeoForge only, for 1.21.1, and is open source under the MIT License.

Questions

Does Create: Factory Controller need Create?

Yes. Create is a required dependency, and the mod runs on Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1.

Does the server need Create: Factory Controller?

Yes. Installation covers the server and each player's game.

Will the controller work with items from other mods?

Items added by other mods are not covered unless explicit support has been written for them, so they may not be placeable through a controller.
