RFTools Power

by McJty

RFTools Power adds three power generators, a dimensional powercell and a multiblock storage unit to the RFTools family of mods.

ForgeNeoForgeClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.12.2 – 1.21.1

What it does

The mod is an addon for RFTools and covers both power generation and power storage. Its simple generator burns coal or charcoal, the blazing generator takes blaze rods, and the endergenic generator uses ender pearls. Storage comes in two forms: a dimensional powercell that moves power across long distances and between dimensions, and a power storage multiblock built to hold a large amount of energy.

Installation needs RFTools Base, which in turn depends on McjtyLib, and The One Probe is optional. RFTools Power is published for Forge and NeoForge across 17 release versions, 1.12.2 – 1.21.1, and the code is open source under the MIT License. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod.

Key features

  1. Coal and charcoal generator

    A simple generator converts coal or charcoal into power, a basic starting option for a power network.

  2. Blazing generator

    A generator fed with blaze rods produces power, giving a second fuel source for a growing base.

  3. Endergenic generator

    An endergenic generator runs on ender pearls, adding another power source to the network.

  4. Dimensional powercell

    The powercell stores power and transfers it across great distances, including into other dimensions.

  5. Power storage multiblock

    A multiblock structure built from several parts gives a large store of energy for heavier machinery.

Use cases

Long-distance power transfer
