Redstone Numpad
by NdRz
Redstone Numpad is a Forge and NeoForge technology mod with a numeric keypad block that emits a configurable redstone signal for each of its 16 buttons.
What it does
A numpad block is placed in the world and its screen offers sixteen buttons. Each button selects the redstone power level the block emits, so one block can drive a circuit to a chosen strength. The block's screen display name is the mod's own label for the numpad, and a message signal can be set so the block reports when it has been switched.
The mod is built to work alongside Super Factory Manager, and the author notes that it can be used with that mod in place. A plugin for Super Factory Manager is planned, and the screen is currently disabled while the author prepares a new texture that matches the newer Super Factory Manager. Some debug tools are mentioned as a possibility but are not confirmed.
Files are published for Forge and NeoForge. The Forge file targets 1.20.1 and the NeoForge file targets 26.1.2, and builds exist for 1.20.1, 1.21.1 and 26.1.2. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. It is licensed under the Apache License 2.0 and is not open source.
Key features
Sixteen-button numpad
Each of the sixteen buttons selects a redstone power level for the block to emit, letting one block produce 16 different signal strengths.
Configurable message signal
The block can be set to send a message signal when a switch is completed, so a circuit can react to the change.
Simple emit block
The block emits a set redstone signal and needs no code or extra setup, so builders can place it directly into a circuit.
Super Factory Manager support
The mod works with Super Factory Manager, and a plugin for it is planned for a later update.

A kind of Super Factory Manager plugin, but can work without. It's a simple block that emit configurable redstone signal. There is 16 buttons to select the redstone power emited by the block. -For the next update, i will probably make a new texture matching the new Super Factory Manager.
