Madoku Craft: Utility
by Monkeyopolis
Madoku Craft: Utility is a Fabric add-on for Madoku Craft that bundles smaller mechanics which do not belong in a standalone module, including furnace and music tweaks.
What it does
Furnace smelting keeps progressing while a player is away from the furnace, and sleeping moves the furnace progress forward, so smelting finishes in less time. The default furnace smelting speeds are also raised, and the adjustments are set through the config files rather than in-game menus.
A music system lets players change the in-game music: songs can be added or removed, and the frequency with which a song plays can be adjusted. The mod depends on Madoku Craft: Core and Fabric API, both of which must be installed alongside it. The environment is client and server, so the server and every player need the mod, and the code is not open source; the project is licensed as All rights reserved, though its source code is publicly available.
Key features
Background furnace smelting
Furnaces continue smelting while the player is nearby or far away, so progress does not stop when the player walks off.
Sleep-based smelting progress
Sleeping advances furnace progress, shortening the time a batch of smelting takes overnight.
Faster default smelting
Furnace smelting speeds are raised from the vanilla defaults, and the values can be tuned in the config.
Customizable music playback
Songs can be added or removed from the in-game music rotation, and how often each song appears can be set.
