Create: steam robots
by dan7zpc
Create: steam robots brings andesite robot units to Create, so players can extend their steam-powered machinery with automated helpers.
What it does
The mod adds andesite robots that work as an addition to the Create mod's mechanical and steam-driven contraptions. It requires Create, and the two must be installed together on Forge 1.20.1.
Because the robots rely on Create's systems, they fit into existing Create builds and factories. Client and server both need the mod, so every player on a server running it needs it installed as well. The license is the MIT License, and the mod is not open source.
Files for the mod are published for Forge only, targeting 1.20.1. The first version was released on 2023-12-10, and the latest beta file, 0.1.0, followed on 2023-12-14.
Key features
Andesite robot units
Andesite robots are added as new entities that operate within Create-based setups.
Steam-powered automation
The robots connect to the steam and mechanical systems that Create already provides, so builds can automate tasks.
Extends Create builds
The additions sit alongside Create's existing blocks and machines, widening what a factory can do.
Mob-style entities
The robots are handled as mob-category entities, so they appear and act in the world as creatures do.

Use cases
Automated Create factories
Players building Create contraptions can place andesite robots to take over repetitive work in a steam-powered base.
Who it’s for: Players who already use Create and want more automation options, and server owners who run Create with Forge 1.20.1 and can install the mod on both sides.
