Survival power armor

by romanrich2008

Survival power armor is a Forge add-on that lets players craft Nukacraft power armor in survival mode.

ForgeServer-side onlyAll rights reserved1.20.1

What it does

Survival power armor adds crafting recipes for the power armor from the Nukacraft mod, so the armor can be built in survival play instead of only obtained through other means. The recipes use Create items, and Nukacraft, Create and Nuclear Craft are all required, otherwise the mod will not work. JEI is needed to browse the recipes in game. Players join without it, since only the server has to run the mod. The files target Forge for 1.20.1 and are released under All rights reserved; the mod is not open source.

Key features

  1. Survival crafting for power armor

    Power armor from Nukacraft can be crafted in survival mode rather than being unavailable to ordinary builds.

  2. Create-based recipes

    The crafting recipes for the armor use Create components, so Create must be present alongside Nukacraft.

  3. JEI recipe lookup

    JEI lets players view the new armor recipes in game, which is the intended way to find them.

Yes. Nukacraft, Create and Nuclear Craft are all required, and the mod will not work without them.

What the author says

This is a simple mod that adds crafting recipies to power armor from the nukacraft mod using create and create nuclear. I wont be making another version of this as it is a place holder for when a permanent option becomes available, but i might fix broken recipies.
