Turing Complete
by dutchtristan
Turing Complete adds redstone logic gates to Minecraft, so players can build NAND, NOR, XOR and XNOR circuits from a base plate.
What it does
The mod introduces a logic base plate and a set of gates that players craft and combine into circuits. Each gate carries its own function, set by the recipe used to craft it, and the NAND gate can be built from other gates. Gates currently include NAND, NOR, XOR, XNOR and a three-input OR gate.
Turing Complete runs on Fabric and needs Fabric API. Its files target 1.21 only, and the latest Fabric file is 1.3.2 for 1.21, published on 2025-02-20. The mod is released under the MIT License and is open source. Roughly Enough Items (REI) is optional and can be added to browse recipes. Both the server and every player need the mod, since the environment is client and server.
Key features
Logic base plate
A base plate serves as the foundation on which players arrange and connect logic gates.
NAND and NOR gates
NAND and NOR gates are available as separate blocks, each with its own crafting recipe.
XOR and XNOR gates
Exclusive-or and exclusive-nor gates let circuits compare inputs and output a signal based on that comparison.
Three-input OR gate
A three-input OR gate extends the set of available gate types for building circuits.

Use cases
Building logic circuits
Players can combine gates on a base plate to construct circuits that compute simple logical results in the world.
Teaching digital logic
The gates let players see how basic Boolean operations combine into larger circuits without leaving the game.
Who it’s for: Players who enjoy redstone engineering and want logic gates beyond vanilla redstone components, on single-player worlds or servers running Fabric.
How it compares
Redstone Logic Gates is a Fabric mod for 1.21.5 – 26.3 under the ISC License and is not open source. Logic Gate is open source under the MIT License and runs on Fabric and NeoForge for 1.20 – 26.3. Redstone overpower is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and covers 1.21 – 26.3 on Fabric.

What the author says
These gates all have their own special functionality, and are crafted based on their functionality. For example: an AND Gate is crafted from a NAND Gate and a NOT Gate.
