Create: Minecolonies Smart Clipboard

Create: MineColonies Smart Clipboard

Your colony, organized in one place

Create: MineColonies Smart Clipboard retains all functionality of the regular MineColonies Clipboard, then expands it into a practical management tool for players using Create and MineColonies together.

Link one Smart Colony Clipboard to your colony to gain deeper request analysis, production information, colony-wide controls, recipe teaching, and built-in storage for colony tools that would otherwise occupy several inventory slots.

A Goldstein Industries Endeavor

At a glance

• Adds warehouse availability, expandable dependency trees, and production context to requests
• See which huts already know a recipe and which compatible huts may be able to learn it
• Unassign all jobs or residences and set hiring or housing modes across compatible huts
• Store up to 18 Resource Scrolls and one Colony Map
• Store and open one actual MineColonies Quest Book
• Teach eligible Domum Ornamentum Architect's Cutter recipes found among the colony's active requests
• Improve selected Create interactions with MineColonies-managed inventories

---

Getting started

1. Craft a Smart Colony Clipboard from the standard MineColonies Clipboard and Create components.
2. Hold it and Shift + Right Click the colony's Town Hall to link that specific clipboard to the colony.
3. Right click with the clipboard to open its management screen.

The colony link, stored Resource Scrolls, stored Colony Map, and stored Quest Book remain attached to that individual clipboard.

Go beyond the standard request list

The regular Clipboard tells you what the colony needs. The Smart Colony Clipboard adds the context needed to understand how that request can be fulfilled.

Depending on the request, the enhanced view can add:

• The amount already available in the Warehouse
• An expandable tree of parent and child requests
• Known production methods and recipe context
• Domum Ornamentum shape and material information

This information is presented alongside the regular Clipboard workflow rather than replacing it.

Smart production information

When production information is available, the clipboard helps answer the question that usually sends colony owners through several hut interfaces:

Can my colony already make this?

The Smart Info display can identify which huts already know the requested recipe, which huts are compatible with that recipe, and other relevant production information. A compatible hut is not a guarantee that teaching will succeed if MineColonies rejects it because of capacity, a disabled recipe, or another native rule.

Domum Ornamentum requests receive additional Architect's Cutter context, including their shape and material combination. Hold the Smart Colony Clipboard and Shift + Right Click a compatible MineColonies worker hut to scan that colony's active requests and teach the eligible Architect's Cutter recipe entries to that hut. Teaching requires the colony's MANAGE_HUTS permission and remains subject to MineColonies' normal compatibility, disabled-recipe, and capacity rules.

Colony Controls

The Colony Controls tab is designed for the moments when reorganizing a settlement one citizen at a time becomes impractical.

From one screen, authorized players can preview and apply four specific colony-wide actions:

• Unassign all currently employed citizens from their jobs
• Unassign all currently housed citizens from their residences
• Set the hiring mode used by all compatible workplaces
• Set the housing mode used by all compatible residences

Colony Controls does not assign individual citizens, recommend assignments, automatically redistribute workers, or change the Town Hall's colony-wide defaults.

Potentially disruptive actions include scope previews, confirmations, automatic-refill warnings, and result counts so the effect is clear before and after it is applied.

---

Colony tools without the inventory clutter

The Smart Colony Clipboard can hold the actual MineColonies items it integrates:

• Up to 18 Resource Scrolls
• One Colony Map
• One Quest Book

Stored Resource Scrolls remain available for linked builder-resource information. The Colony Map opens the native MineColonies map interface, and the Quest Book opens the colony's native quest log before returning to the Smart Clipboard.

Create and MineColonies compatibility

The mod also contains focused server-side compatibility improvements for established Create and MineColonies interaction points, including:

• Short-lived Create inventory summaries for MineColonies combined inventories
• Fresh cached counts for compatible restocking Factory Panels
• Warehouse inventory snapshots for Create Stockpile Switches
• Packager and building-inventory compatibility behavior
• A targeted safeguard for malformed item data during funnel extraction

These changes do not replace Create's logistics system or automate colony requests. They reduce unnecessary repeated work and improve selected interactions while keeping inventory and request changes server-authoritative.

---

Included utility recipes

The mod also packages several Create mixing recipes used by its original modpack environment:

• Gravel, sand, and water into dirt
• Cobblestone and quartz into diorite
• Shroomlight and dye into each froglight color
• A large empty bottle and milk bucket into a large milk bottle, returning the bucket

These recipes load automatically in worlds using the mod and can be overridden by a world datapack.
