GlitchedDev´s Superflat Expansion
by GlitchedDev
GlitchedDev´s Superflat Expansion adds an iron age progression to superflat survival worlds, so players who want more to do than vanilla superflat can work toward Create machinery.
What it does
The mod targets players who want a grindy, modded survival path on a superflat world without generated structures. Early crafting starts from sticks, planks and rocks gathered from the ground, then moves through pebbles, gravel and a stone cutter that turns stone blocks and slime into tools. Sharp rocks and a sieve come before metal, and mineral meshes made at the stone cutter can be smelted into nuggets of specific materials.
The later stages use Create, which must be installed alongside this mod, and JEI is required to browse the recipes. The mod is Forge only, built for Minecraft 1.20.1, and it can run on a client, a server, or both. The license is the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and the code is not open source.
Key features
Early ground crafting
Sticks, planks, leaves and sharp rocks are gathered and combined before any machine is available.
Sieve and gravel
Nine pebbles form a rock, and nine rocks form gravel, which feeds the sieve for the next stage.
Stone cutter mineral meshes
A stone cutter made from slime and redstone cuts mineral meshes for gold, iron and copper.
Create material processing
Create machinery handles nuggets of diamonds and other materials once the player reaches the iron age.

How it compares
Rock Mod is a Forge mod for client and server, published under All rights reserved. The Pebble Age is a Forge mod where either side can run it, and neither needs it, under the MIT License. Superflat Survival is a Forge mod for client and server, also under All rights reserved, so it differs from this mod in its license and in how both sides are required.
