World Accelerator
by chronocide
World Accelerator is a Forge utility block that speeds up the random tick rate of block entities placed around it, with the boost scaled by the redstone signal strength applied to the block.
What it does
Placing the World Accelerator block raises the random tick rate of nearby block entities. The boost grows in proportion to the redstone signal strength fed into the block, and by default the block is disabled at signal strength 0 and reaches its maximum speed at 15. The area it affects is a 3x3x3 radius, so the block reaches one block to each side and diagonally.
The mod sits in the Utility category with Game mechanics as a secondary tag, and it is aimed at players who want faster machines in their 1.7.10 worlds. Mobs cannot spawn on top of the block. Crafting and particles can each be turned off in the config, which also holds the other options the mod exposes.
Files exist for 1.7.10 only, on Forge. The latest Forge file is 0.0.6, published on 2026-03-25 on the alpha channel. Client and server both need the mod, and the code is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only.

Use cases
Machine clusters
Players running several block-entity machines in a tight cluster can use the block to raise their tick rate with a redstone signal.
Who it’s for: Players on 1.7.10 Forge who run block-entity machines and want to control their speed with redstone, and server owners who want the same control on a shared world.
How it compares
Crop Growth Accelerator is server-side only, targets 1.12.2 and is open source under the MIT License, so players can join without installing it. Speed Control targets 1.18.2 on Forge, is not open source and needs the mod on both client and server, with All rights reserved as its license. Adaptive Tick covers 1.21 – 1.21.11 on four loaders, is also not open source, and the server requires it while clients may leave it out.
