Create: Multiplanar Crafters
by ceketrumdev
Create: Multiplanar Crafters lets the Create Mechanical Crafter build recipes on a horizontal grid that faces the sky, instead of only a vertical one.
What it does
The addon extends the vanilla Mechanical Crafter through Mixins, so the world keeps its existing crafters and recipes. Placing a crafter on the floor and using a wrench to rotate its active grid face upward turns it into a flat recipe surface. Several crafters can be connected to form one larger horizontal grid, and rotational power can enter from the side through cogwheels and shafts.
The mod requires Create and runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge, for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source. The mod adds no new registered blocks, so the crafter keeps its place in the existing Create progression.
Key features
Horizontal crafting grid
A Mechanical Crafter placed on the floor can be rotated so its grid faces straight up, giving a flat recipe area.
Connected crafter grids
Several crafters placed side by side join into one flat recipe grid, allowing larger layouts.
Side power input
Rotational power can reach the crafters from the side through cogwheels and shafts, without a vertical drive.
Collision-free output
Finished products are ejected gently upward from the top face, which avoids item-launching glitches caused by block collisions.
