Nuclear Earth Mod
by Drathonix
Nuclear Earth Mod is a Forge tweak mod for 1.12.2 that changes radiation, fusion reactor recipes and generator output in the Nuclear Earth Reirradiated modpack.
What it does
Hazmat Armor reduces radiation exposure: each radiation tick the armor has a chance of one-third of the radiation level to deal one damage, and radiation damage always applies at radiation level one. The Fusion Reactor now runs correctly whatever order its items are placed in, where earlier recipes could break when more than one item was consumed. The Industrial Centrifuge checks NBT data, and empty cells are no longer misidentified as lava cells.
The mod is made for the Nuclear Earth Reirradiated modpack and only targets Minecraft 1.12.2. Some changes are made through mixins, so other mods that patch the same behavior may conflict with it. Industrial Foregoing and NuclearCraft are optional dependencies that the balance changes can work alongside.
Forge is the only loader with files, and the mod runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is released under the MIT License as open source, with public source code and an issue tracker. The latest file is 1.0.0 for 1.12.2, dated 2024-12-10.
Key features
