Create: Smart Crafter
by Tatnux
Create: Smart Crafter adds one autocrafting block that stores up to 9 recipes in its internal inventory and switches between them without reconfiguration.
What it does
The block is built for players who automate crafting inside Create contraptions. Its ingredient slots and output slots can be locked into an arrangement, and when a recipe is set, the resulting items go straight to the output slots. Items are kept in the block until a crafting cycle takes them, so the next cycle can use the same setup.
Crafting the block needs Create, which is the only required dependency. The mod is published for Forge alone, in one game version, 1.20.1, with 0.2.0 as the latest file dated 2025-03-23. The server and every player need the mod installed. The source code is public, but the mod is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.

Use cases
Automated production lines
A contraption can feed ingredients into the block and collect the finished items without manual crafting.
Recurring recipes
Frequently used recipes stay stored in the block, so a player does not need to rebuild the setup for later runs.
Who it’s for: Players who run Create contraptions on Forge for 1.20.1 and want a block that automates crafting with stored recipes. It suits builders who prefer one block over a chain of separate crafting devices.
