Qilby Core

by qilby-fr

Qilby Core is a Technology library for Forge and NeoForge that Qilby Industries packs use to add GregTech multiblock machines, Botania mana integration, and game balance changes.

ForgeNeoForgeClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.20.1

What it does

The mod serves as the core of the Qilby Industries modpack. It contributes additional GregTech Modern multiblock machines, cross-mod compatibility with the other mods in that pack, and several game balance tweaks. Because its work sits on top of many required mods, the list of dependencies is long: Ad Astra, Applied Energistics 2, Botania, Dea's Fission, GT Community Additions, GT--, GregTech CEu Modern, GregTech Modern Utilities, Just Enough Items (JEI), and MaterialReplicationModern must all be present.

Installation runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge, with 2.8.0 for 1.20.1 as the latest Forge build and 2.6.1 for 1.20.1 as the latest NeoForge build. The code is open source under the MIT License, and public source code and an issue tracker are linked from its project page.

Key features

  1. Automated terrasteel production

    The Automated Terrestrial Aggregation Plate automates terrasteel production, using mana hatches to draw Botania mana into GregTech multiblocks.

  2. Runic altar automation

    The Runic Assembler and Botanic Infuser automate runic altar and mana pool recipes, and the Runic Assembler handles most of the GregTech Botania integration parts.

  3. Steam power tiers

    Steam engines offer an early game option, with four tiers that scale up to LV, MV, HV and EV, feeding large GregTech steam turbines.

  4. Materials and computation

    New materials use several new processing routes, and new GregTech parts such as a High-Performance Computation Array extend computation scaling.
