PolyTech
by jthkhaose
PolyTech adds a server-side energy network, industrial machines and quarry systems to Fabric servers running Minecraft 1.21.11.
What it does
The mod is built on Fabric API and Polymer, and it introduces an energy network built around Power Units (PU) carried on a six-way connectable cable grid. Machines are upgradeable across the LV, MV, HV and EV tiers. Battery Boxes store and distribute power, Solar Panels generate it from daylight, and furnace fuels burn to produce power as well. Dimension-wide wireless power is available through 16 color channels.
Machines process resources: the Electric Furnace smelts, the grinder reduces items to dust, and a press turns materials into plates and compressed forms. Villager Grinder and Villager Combiner handle villagers for specialized processing. The Quarry Block mines with a moving drill head, the Chunk Destroyer excavates chunk by chunk, and Quarry Frames mark the area to be mined. Digital Chest connects for direct deposit of mined items, and the Digital Crafter scans and runs crafting recipes automatically. Machines have their own GUIs and per-face input and output settings, which can be set to normal or disabled. The mod is published for Fabric only, for the single game version 1.21.11.
Key features
