Create: Shuffle Filter
by agent772
A Shuffle Filter placed in a Create deployer on a contraption makes it place randomly chosen blocks, a shuffle mode that Create: Shuffle Filter adds to the Create mod.
What it does
The mod adds one item, the Shuffle Filter, with the identifier createshufflefilter:shuffle filter. When the item is used in a Create deployer on a contraption, the deployer switches to shuffle mode and picks each block to place at random, which gives block variety without manual swapping of items in the filter. The idea is similar to the Shuffle mod for players, applied to contraptions.
Outside a deployer the Shuffle Filter works as a normal list filter, so existing setups keep their behavior. The item offers two selection modes: equal chance, where every listed block has the same probability, and weighted selection, where the odds follow the weights set for each entry. The mod is small and adds one lightweight mixin with no interface or config screen.
Create: Shuffle Filter requires Create, and it runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is published for Forge and NeoForge, with builds for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, and the code is released under the MIT License.
Key features
Shuffle mode for deployers
Used on a Create deployer on a contraption, the filter makes the deployer place a randomly chosen block on each action.
Equal or weighted selection
Two selection modes let the filter pick every listed block with the same chance, or favor some blocks through their weights.
Normal list filter elsewhere
Everywhere outside a deployer the item behaves as a standard list filter, so other setups are unchanged.
No extra interface
The item is the only addition, with no separate screen or configuration needed to start using it.
