What does BuildCraft Reborn add?

BuildCraft Reborn

BuildCraft Reborn is an unofficial, community-driven revival of BuildCraft. The project begins with a playable Forge 1.16.5 port and aims to keep the classic automation experience alive on newer versions over time.

  • Fluid pumps
  • Item and fluid pipes
  • Engines and BuildCraft power systems
  • Creative Engine with selectable speed levels
  • Distillery and fluid processing
  • Tanks and automation components

Roadmap

  • Improve stability and rendering
  • Expand and polish the current 1.16.5 release
  • Port the project to newer versions, including 1.21+
