About this project

What does Create: Better Computer add?

Create: Better Computer

A programmable computer for Create — built out of blocks instead of code.

Right-click the computer to open the programming screen, drag blocks from the left panel onto the canvas and save. Sneak-right-click to power it on and the program starts running.

What you can do

  • Control Create gearboxes and the Smart Speed Controller (continuous, angle, jog, rotate-to)
  • Send and receive Create's native wireless redstone (channel #1 red, #2 blue)
  • Query a stock network and ship packages with packagers
  • Talk to other computers on your LAN or across the whole server, and post to chat
  • Play sound effects and internet music, and write text to wireless displays
  • Read Aeronautics nav table positions, distances and bearings

Expand it

Attach a CB Expander to the back of the computer. Each module card unlocks another set of blocks: peripherals, stock links, wireless redstone, LAN, internet, wireless displays, speaker range, music and hard drives.

Getting started

  1. Craft the computer on a Create mechanical crafter.
  2. Place it and sneak-right-click to turn it on.
  3. Right-click it, drop in "When this computer runs", and stack your blocks below.

Requirements

  • Minecraft 1.21.1 · NeoForge 21.1.228+
  • Required: Create 6.0.10, Create Aeronautics 1.3.2, Sable 2.0.6
  • Optional: JEI, Curios, Net Music

Extra content

Sculpting Hand: charge it with lightning, then right-click mobs to sculpt them into computer parts (32 uses).
Super Blaze: convert a Blaze with a Blaze Cake for stronger fireballs and a new drop.
Lodestone Charm & Bound Compass: a compass that always points to the player carrying the charm.
