Tinkers' Mechworks

by fuj1n

Tinkers' Mechworks adds redstone machines to Forge worlds, including copper and aluminum ores and a block placer that handles pistons.

ForgeClient and serverCC-BY-3.01.6.4 – 1.16.5

What it does

The mod adds a set of redstone machines and the materials they depend on. Copper and aluminum ores generate in the overworld, and the mod supplies a way to make aluminum brass in a smeltery. Mechworks requires Mantle to run, and both the server and every player need it on the same loader.

Its machines cover signaling buses and block placement. A placer can retract a block, including blocks that normally move with pistons, and a drawbridge can hold its own inventory, so it can place other drawbridges. A fire-related block sits in front of a fire and, when it receives a redstone signal, can extinguish it; the effect stops once the power is removed. The codebase is a complete rewrite of the original mDiyo mod, so behavior and item sets differ from the earlier release.

Files are published for Forge across nine release versions, 1.6.4 – 1.16.5, with 2.2.5 for 1.16.5 as the latest build, released on 2022-12-28. The license is CC-BY-3.0, and the mod is not open source, though its source code and issue tracker are public.

Key features

  1. Signaling buses

    Buses carry redstone signals across a machine setup so several machines can be driven from one line.

  2. Block placer with piston retraction

    The placer retracts a block, including blocks that normally move only with pistons, into a new position.

  3. Self-holding drawbridges

    A drawbridge keeps its own inventory, so drawbridges can be placed with other drawbridges.

  4. Fire extinguishing block

    A block in front of a fire extinguishes it when it receives a redstone signal, and the effect ends when the power is removed.

  5. Copper and aluminum ores

    Copper and aluminum ores generate in the overworld and feed into crafting throughout the mod.
