Create: Kinetic Lens
by pirogram
Create: Kinetic Lens is a NeoForge addon that reports how stress and speed move through a Create kinetic network, shown on the blocks themselves.
What it does
Right-clicking a Stressometer opens a breakdown of the whole Create kinetic network it belongs to. Generators, consumers and everything else sitting on a shaft are listed, sorted by stress units so the heaviest load sits at the top. Clicking a row lights up the matching blocks in the world, including through walls, and expanding a row shows each individual block with its coordinates, RPM and own draw. Blocks in unloaded chunks cannot be listed.
The lens only reads network state and never changes the simulation, so it can be used on a working build without altering its output. Highlight colours, durations and load thresholds are configurable, and highlights follow a structure when it is moved. Sable sub-levels are supported when Sable is installed, and the optional dependency is named here so the lens knows about moving contraptions.
Create: Kinetic Lens requires Create and runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source, with files published for NeoForge 1.21.1 only, as version 0.1.0 in the beta channel.
Key features
Stressometer breakdown
Right-clicking a Stressometer lists every stress-using and stress-producing block in its kinetic network.
Sorted load list
Entries are ordered by stress units, so the largest consumers appear first and are simple to find.
Highlight through walls
Clicking a row lights up the matching blocks in the world, even when they sit behind walls.
Per-block detail
Expanding a row gives each block its coordinates, RPM and individual draw, which helps tune a network.
Configurable highlights
Colours, duration and load thresholds for the highlights can be changed in the config.

What the author says
Right-click any Stressometer and you get the whole network: generators, consumers, and everything that's just sitting there being a shaft. Sorted by SU, so whatever is actually costing you sits at the top. Click a row and those blocks light up through walls. Expand it and you get the individual ones with coordinates…
