About this project

What does Kaleidoscope Contraption add?

Kaleidoscope Contraption

Minecraft Version
Forge Version
License

A compatibility addon that brings Kaleidoscope Cookery blocks to Create contraptions, allowing you to build fully functional mobile kitchens!


📖 Overview

Kaleidoscope Contraption bridges the gap between Kaleidoscope Cookery's immersive cooking experience and Create's powerful mechanical contraptions. Ever wanted a food truck in Minecraft? Now you can build one!

This mod registers proper interaction and movement behaviors for all Kaleidoscope Cookery blocks, making them fully functional when assembled into Create contraptions (moving structures like trains, elevators, or rotating assemblies).


✨ Features

🍳 Cooking Appliances on the Move

  • Wok (Pot) - Cook your stir-fries even while the contraption is moving
  • Stockpot - Prepare hearty soups and stews on your mobile kitchen
  • Shawarma Spit - Rotate and cook delicious shawarma anywhere
  • Steamer - Steam your buns and dumplings on the go
  • Stove - The heart of your mobile cooking station

🍽️ Interactive Food Blocks

All food blocks with bite mechanics work seamlessly on contraptions:

  • Dark Cuisine, Suspicious Stir Fry, Slime Ball Meal
  • Fondant Pie, Dongpo Pork, Fondant Spider Eye
  • Chorus Fried Egg, Braised Fish, Golden Salad
  • Spicy Chicken, Yakitori, Pan-Seared Knight Steak
  • Stargazy Pie, Sweet and Sour Ender Pearls
  • Crystal/Blaze/Frost Lamb Chops
  • Various Sashimi styles (Nether, End, Desert, Tundra, Cold)
  • Shengjian Mantou, Candied Potato, Dough Drop Soup
  • And many more delicious dishes!

🪑 Furniture & Storage

  • Chairs - Sit down and enjoy your meal while moving (supports all wood types)
  • Cook Stools - Perfect seating for your kitchen staff
  • Tables - Place and display your culinary creations (all wood variants supported)
  • Chopping Board - Prepare ingredients on the go
  • Kitchenware Racks - Store your cooking tools
  • Fruit Basket - Display fresh fruits
  • Enamel Basin - Multi-purpose container
  • Oil Pot - Keep your cooking oil handy

🎮 How It Works

Simply build your kitchen using Kaleidoscope Cookery blocks, then assemble them into a Create contraption using:

  • Mechanical Bearing - For rotating kitchens
  • Cart Assembler - For mobile food trucks/trains
  • Rope Pulley - For vertical moving kitchens
  • Elevator Pulley - For multi-floor restaurant setups

All blocks retain their functionality when the contraption is assembled and moving!
