Voltaic
by aurilisdev
Voltaic is a library that other mods of the Ampz family use as their shared core, aimed at reviving the old Voltz modpack content.
What it does
Voltaic provides the shared code that several Ampz mods build on, including Electrodynamics, Nuclear Science, Modular Forcefield System and others that recreate content from the abandoned Voltz modpack. The mods that require it are listed as dependencies, so installing one of them without Voltaic will not start the game.
The author is restoring several earlier mods for newer versions, among them Ballistix, Assembly Line and Blastcraft, each linked from the project description. Voltaic runs on client and server, so every player and the server need it. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge across five release versions, 1.16.5 – 1.21.1, under a custom license that is not open source.

Use cases
Who it’s for: Players who want the Ampz technology mods to run in one installation, and server owners who host them. Voltaic does nothing on its own, so it is only useful alongside the mods that require it.
