Create: Propulsion
by DeltaSF
Create: Propulsion adds redstone-controlled thrusters, magnets, optical sensors and assembler blocks to Create for ships built with Valkyrien Skies 2.
What it does
The mod extends Create and Valkyrien Skies 2 with new ways to move and steer vehicles. A thruster provides thrust to a craft and can be switched by redstone, while redstone magnets attract or repel one another depending on polarity. Optical sensors use raycasts to detect blocks, in a small inline version and in a configurable version that sets a target distance and filters by block type. A physics assembler joins blocks into a physical entity, and a lodestone tracker lets a compass follow a bound lodestone block.
Required dependencies are Create and Valkyrien Skies 2, so both must be installed next to the mod. CC: Tweaked, Create Big Cannons and Create: Diesel Generators are optional; the thruster accepts Create: Diesel Generators fuels. The mod is published for Forge and NeoForge across 6 release versions, 1.20.1 – 1.20.6, and runs on client and server under the MIT License as open source. The project is in very early alpha, so features are limited and bugs are possible.
Key features
Redstone-controlled thrusters
Thrusters push vehicles and can be switched on and off from redstone circuits.
Polarity-based magnets
Redstone magnets attract or repel other magnets depending on their polarity.
Raycast optical sensors
An inline sensor gives a basic, small block detector, while the optical sensor can set a target distance and filter by block type.
Physics assembler
The assembler joins placed blocks into a single physical entity that moves as one craft.
Lodestone tracker
A compass bound to a tracker follows the lodestone block it is tied to.
