Lychee Oritech
by KuDikan
Lychee Oritech is a NeoForge addon that lets Oritech in-world crafting interactions be defined through JSON recipes, as the Lychee recipe type.
What it does
The addon connects Oritech's in-world machines and crafting interactions to the Lychee framework. Recipes for these interactions are written as JSON data, so a pack maker can add or change them without code. Two block-level interactions are covered: a particle colliding block and a nuclear exploding block, each with a matching entity variant.
Lychee and Oritech must both be installed, because Lychee supplies the recipe system and Oritech supplies the machines the recipes act on. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. Files are published for NeoForge only, for 1.21.1, with 1.0.0 as the latest file released on 2026-05-22. All rights reserved applies, so the mod is not open source.
Key features
JSON-defined interactions
In-world Oritech interactions are declared as JSON recipes using the Lychee recipe type, not as hard-coded logic.
Particle colliding block
A block-level interaction for the particle colliding process, with a matching entity variant.
Nuclear exploding block
A block-level interaction for the nuclear exploding process, with a matching entity variant.
Viewer integration
The particle colliding and nuclear exploding entries show up in JEI, REI and EMI, so recipes can be looked up in the viewer.
Scripted recipe additions
Recipes can also be added with CraftTweaker or KubeJS, as an alternative to writing JSON files by hand.

Use cases
Pack customization
Pack makers can change which inputs and outputs the Oritech interactions use by editing recipe files.
Who it’s for: Modpack authors and server owners who run Oritech and want its in-world crafting steps to follow data-driven recipes.
How it compares
KubeJS Oritech also adds recipes for these machines through scripting and is published for NeoForge 1.21.1 under the MIT License, but it is not open source and it does not use the recipe type this addon uses. Oritech Black Hole Dislocator is a Fabric and NeoForge mod for 1.21.1 under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and is open source, but it covers a different feature rather than recipe definitions.
