Create Crafts & Additions
Create Crafts & Additions (v1.3.4) is another electricity bridge for Create, focused on two core conversion blocks: the Electric Motor, which generates kinetic rotation from Forge Energy (5,000 FE capacity, up to 5,000 FE/t input, 256 RPM range), and the Alternator, which does the reverse at 75% generator efficiency (generator_efficiency = 0.75) up to 5,000 FE/t output. A Rolling Mill adds a dedicated FE-and-kinetic-stress processing step (100-tick duration, 16 SU stress cost), and a full Wires/Connectors system (Small and Large Connectors, with 16- and 32-block wire ranges respectively) lets FE-based devices network together without item-pipe-style block chains.
Two blocks stand out for their tooltips: the Accumulator (a 2,000,000 FE battery block) is explicitly flagged in its own in-game tooltip as “Deprecated and subject to removal from future releases,” in favor of the newer Modular Accumulator — worth knowing before building storage around it. The mod also adds a defensive Tesla Coil that charges from FE (40,000 FE capacity, 5,000 FE/t charge rate) and zaps nearby mobs and players for 3 and 2 damage respectively on a 20-tick cooldown, functioning as a powered mob-deterrent turret.
Anticipated questions
Q: What does it do? A: It’s an electricity bridge for Create, centered on the Electric Motor (kinetic rotation from Forge Energy) and the Alternator (rotation back to FE at 75% efficiency).
Q: Where does it sit relative to Create? A: It’s a Create addon — it connects Create’s kinetic network to FE devices via a Wires/Connectors system (16- and 32-block ranges) so FE devices network without item-pipe-style block chains.
Q: Should I build storage around the Accumulator? A: Be careful — the Accumulator (2,000,000 FE) is flagged in-game as “Deprecated and subject to removal from future releases,” in favor of the newer Modular Accumulator.
Q: Is there anything for base defense? A: Yes — the Tesla Coil charges from FE (40,000 FE, 5,000 FE/t) and zaps nearby mobs and players (3 and 2 damage) on a 20-tick cooldown.
