Create: Tow & Haul
by Danzy_189
Create: Tow & Haul adds towing gear built on Create physics vehicles, with a redstone winch, steel rope and tow bars for hitching one vehicle to another.
What it does
Towing gear runs through real physics rope rather than a teleport or a fake pull. A redstone-controlled winch reels steel rope in and out, a tow bar acts as the anchor point on each vehicle, and a rigid drawbar carries Create shaft rotation between two tow bars joined by a coupling. Anything a player wants to drag can be attached to a tow bar, and the rope stays a constraint between two sub-levels.
The hitch is built to behave like a real towing hitch. The joint locks only three linear axes, so rotation stays free, and a trailer swings with the towing vehicle through corners rather than being locked to its heading. Both vehicles keep their wheels on the ground over hills, slopes and bumps. The coupling rolls through a full 360 degrees of cornering, and a slope will not flip the rig. Shears cut the rope and return a Steel Rope item, and breaking either end block drops the link. A Create wrench uncouples a hitch and also rotates the winch and the tow bar.
The mod is published for NeoForge 1.21.1 only. It needs Minecraft 1.21.1 with NeoForge, Create 6.0 or newer, Sable 2.0 or newer, and Aeronautics, which bundles Simulated. Only the server has to run the mod, so players may join with it or without it. The license is All rights reserved, so the code is not open source.
Key features
Redstone winch
A winch treats its top and bottom faces as separate inputs and reels real physics rope out or in under redstone control.
Tow bars and coupling
Tow bars anchor a rope, and a coupling joins two tow bars through a rigid drawbar that carries Create shaft rotation.
Steel Rope and shears
Steel Rope links the winch to a tow bar, and shears cut it, returning the Steel Rope item to the player.
Wrench uncoupling
Hitting either tow bar with a Create wrench uncouples it, and the same wrench rotates the winch and tow bars.
Crafted from Create parts
Four items are crafted from Create parts such as iron sheets, andesite casings, shafts and cogwheels.

What the author says
Towing gear for physics vehicles built with Create: Aeronautics / Simulated. Rope things in with a real winch, or hitch up a trailer with a rigid drawbar and drive off. Everything here runs through actual physics — the rope is Simulated's own rope strand, and the coupling is a Sable constraint between two sub-levels…
