About this project
What does Compact Nixie add?
Compact Nixie
Compact Nixie is a Create addon focused on compact displays, instrumentation, navigation tools, and mechanical controls that fit naturally into Create builds.
Designed for factories, control rooms, vehicles, airships, trains, and detailed machinery, Compact Nixie expands on Create's visual language without trying to replace it.
Features
Compact Nixie Displays
- 4-character and 6-character Nixie displays
- Multiple casing styles to match different Create builds
- Ceiling and underside mounting support
- Designed to work cleanly with Display Links
Deckatron Navigation Compass
A functional navigation instrument for displaying target coordinates and travel information.
Useful for:
- Vehicles
- Airships
- Trains
- Control rooms
- Navigation stations
Nixie Terminal
A compact Create-styled terminal for displaying information in machinery and control panels.
Nixie Display Link
A matching Display Link designed to work with Compact Nixie displays and instrumentation.
Steering Wheel
A functional mechanical steering control with:
- Analog steering movement
- Left and right redstone output
- Proportional signal strength up to 15
- Dedicated "in use" redstone output
- Hold-position mode
- Return-to-center mode
- 45-degree snapping while holding Shift
- Floor and ceiling mounting
- Integrated Nixie indicator lights
The steering wheel is designed for use with moving Create-style vehicles and control systems while remaining useful as a standalone redstone control.
Compatibility
- Minecraft: 1.21.1
- Mod Loader: NeoForge
- Required: Create 6.0.10
Compact Nixie does not require Aeronautics, Simulated, or Sable to function normally.
Optional compatibility is included for moving Sable assemblies.
Design
Compact Nixie is intended to look like it belongs beside Create's existing machinery.
The mod uses a mixture of:
- Brass
- Andesite
- Copper
- Rose Quartz
- Nixie tubes
- Mechanical instrumentation
The goal is compact, readable machinery rather than oversized displays or modern-looking computer screens.
