Create:Northstar-Chemistry
by Milasand
Create: Northstar-Chemistry adds chemicals, reactor and centrifuge recipes to the Create: Northstar progression for players on NeoForge 1.21.1.
What it does
The addon extends Create: Northstar with an industrial chemistry layer. Crude oil can be split by fractional distillation into naphtha and other fractions, while pressurized reactors run chemical reactions and centrifuges separate or break down materials.
Its recipes are modeled on real chemical processes and adjusted to fit Minecraft gameplay, so the output stays understandable for survival play. Nitroglycerin and dynamite-related materials also appear. The chemistry chains connect with the space progression of Create: Northstar, and the addon links Create-style automation with exploration systems. Because it adds production chains rather than new materials, the items and recipes reflect the layers already present in Northstar.
The required dependency is Create: Northstar - Redux, which adds the chemistry-focused progression layer the addon builds on. The mod is published for NeoForge only, and it is still in development, so recipes, item names and textures may change in future versions. The server and every player need the mod installed.
Key features
Distillation of crude oil
Crude oil passes through fractional distillation to yield naphtha and other products for later steps.
Reactor and centrifuge recipes
Pressurized reactors drive chemical reactions, and centrifuges separate or break down materials.
Gases and acids
A set of new gases and liquids, including several acids, supports production lines for explosives and other goods.
Space progression link
Chemical materials tie into the space stages of Create: Northstar, so the new chains appear alongside exploration.
