Project ToTheMoon
by KhanhTypo
Project ToTheMoon is a vanilla-styled Forge technology mod with energy-based machines, a 5x5 crafting bench and a 3x3x3 multiblock smelting structure.
What it does
Machines in the mod include an Alloy Smelter, a Metal Press, an Energy Smelter and a Generator, all built to feel close to vanilla play. Crafting of their components happens on a 5x5 crafting bench, and a multiblock structure arranged in a 3x3x3 volume handles some of the heavier smelting work. The mod also adds a Nether Brick Furnace of its own design.
The mod needs Forge 40.1.0 or higher for Minecraft 1.18.2, and it is published for 1.18.2 and 1.19.2 with a latest Forge file released 2022-12-15 on the beta channel. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. The code is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, making the project open source. Create and Patchouli are optional dependencies that extend the mod when installed.

The Alloy Smelter, Metal Press, Energy Smelter and Generator run on power rather than fuel, in the style of vanilla machines.
5x5 crafting bench

Multiblock smelting
A 3x3x3 structure of blocks performs some smelting tasks that a single machine cannot.

Who it’s for: The mod suits players who prefer simple, vanilla-like technology and are willing to report bugs while the project is still in early development.
