Evolved Mekanism
by iglee42
With Evolved Mekanism installed, Mekanism gains new machine tiers, mold recipes and MekaSuit upgrade units that extend its existing automation.
What it does
Evolved Mekanism extends Mekanism by adding higher machine tiers and extra content on top of it. Its Mold machines cover block, ingot, gem, nugget and dust molds, plus plate, gear, rod, wire and coin molds, so items can be shaped without the base machinery. Radioactive gas can be inserted through the Radioactive Upgrade, and the Solar Upgrade raises the output of solar generators.
Evolved Mekanism requires Iglee's Library and Mekanism. Mekanism Generators and Mekanism Tools are optional and add their own content when installed. It runs on the client and the server, so both need it. Files exist for Forge and NeoForge, covering 1.20.1, 1.21 and 1.21.1, under the MIT License and open source, with the source code and issue tracker public.
Key features
Mold machines
Block, ingot, gem, nugget and dust molds, along with plate, gear, rod, wire and coin molds, shape materials into finished parts.
MekaSuit mobility units
The Air Affinity and Aqua Affinity units remove the mining penalty when flying or underwater, and they work with MekaSuit boots, helmet and pants.
Capturing and Luck units
The Capturing Unit gives a chance to obtain mob spawn eggs when killing mobs, and the Luck Unit increases the chance of better loot.
Antimatter Protomolecular Transmutator
The APT reaches a seventh tier, and its crafting speed rises with the Supercharging Element and with a second layer of 25 APTs.
Advanced personal storage
Advanced Personal Chests and Barrels are added as storage options for players who want larger inventories.
