by Oganesson897

GregTech CE Unofficial: Child Happy Edition is a Forge fork of GregTech CE Unofficial that simplifies the machine imbalance and shortens recipe timing for newer players.

What it does

The fork changes several GregTech systems. Recipe durations are shortened, and the extra hang time between steps is removed, so machines finish their work sooner. Cables and wires lose more power over distance, while certain wires are made superconductive. Generators give more energy output than in the parent project, and the default recipe option is set to hard.

The author describes the goal as a better entry point for players who are new to GregTech, with simpler balance and a short introduction, in the mod's own documentation, of what has been modified compared with the original. Being a fork, it stays under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, with the source code and issue tracker public.

The mod is for Forge 1.12.2 only. It runs on the client and the server, so both sides need it. The code is open source, and the license is GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only.

Key features

  1. Shortened recipe timing

    Recipe durations drop by one second per EU/t change, and the unnecessary hang time is removed.

  2. Superconductive cables

    Cables and wires are changed to act as superconductors, with more wire loss over distance than the parent mod.

  3. Stronger generators

    Generators are enhanced to produce more energy output than in the parent GregTech CE Unofficial.

  4. Simpler balance

    The imbalance of the original progression is simplified, and the default recipe option is set to hard.
