Historical Telgraph Mod

Telegraph machines are linked by cables that must be placed between them, and a message moves from one machine to another only along a valid line. Relay stations extend the reach of a network across long distances, while telegraph poles and insulators give the lines a more historical, realistic structure. Stations are identified by name and communicate on channels.

The mod is built around a simple, believable telegraph system rather than a complicated technology tree, so it fits into survival play without much setup. Signal quality depends on the distance and structure of the network, and longer or poorly supported lines deliver messages more slowly or can fail, depending on the configuration. Message delivery is delayed according to cable distance.

Historical Telegraph runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge only, for 1.20.1, and the code is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, which makes the source code public.
