About this project

What does Gaia Cores add?

Gaia Cores

Gaia Cores is a mod that generates Gaia Cores underground during world generation.
These cores can generate different vanilla resources, such as ores, trees, liquids, etc - if specific conditions are met.
Different types of cores can be found across the Overworld, Nether, and End - each with their own behavior.
How these cores work, and how to bring them home is not known: players must craft a Gaia Core Scanner and Analyzer to understand how each core operates.

  • Generates vanilla resources under certain conditions
  • Can be automated
  • JEI compatability
  • No dependency towards other mods (excl JEI)
  • Configurable via gaiacores-common.toml
