The Automation Mod
The Automation Mod is a NeoForge mod that adds redstone machines, including breakers, updaters, duplicators, clocks, togglers, tickers, clickers and movers, for automating block actions.
What it does
Breakers face a block and break it while they stay powered. A breaker does not check what it breaks, and when the block has a drop set in its configuration, the breaker drops that item. Updaters send repeated updates to the block in front of them, and a duplicator copies the block in front of it. The author notes that the duplicator is most useful paired with a clock breaker.
Clock blocks fire on a timer. A toggler flips between on and off with each pulse of power, a ticker acts as a repeater with a delay that can be set from 0 to 1500 ticks, and a clicker needs a bedrock block under it to simulate a right click on the nearest player and block it faces. Movers come as a dual pair. The author warns that redstone dust can form an infinite loop with some of these parts, and the mod uses vanilla redstone, so it stays compatible with other mods that use it. The card is published for NeoForge on 26.1.2 only, and the mod runs as a client and server mod, so the server and every player need it. The license is All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source.

What the author says
Want to duplicate something without the hassle of glitches? All elements in this mod utilize normal redstone, and are all completely compatible with other mods. Some elements may not fully function correctly, E.G. The breaker may not drop the item, but that is only on cases where the drop isn't set, and something…
