About this project

What does Jonas Engine add?

This is a first draft version of this mod, it has minimal polish.


This project is something thrown together to expand on the idea of the engine restoration in another of my mods "Specific Clutter", except this time the goal is to make the engine playable instead of just a prop. However this mod is a very rough survival prototype more so recycling code from my Rickety Translocation mod.

To bring the engine online you require a linked active heat source, and 2 points of strength capacity from concentric amplifier blocks, alongside a fuelled prima material tank.

Boilers provide heat, either with coal from an active boiler, or passively if placed in boiling water with a passive boiler

 

Prima tanks must be refilled with temporal gears.

To link things use the engine tools and shift right click the core and then the linkable object. You can also link rotors to Rotor Levers via starting at a Rotor.
Note that for multi block pieces you need to shift click on one specific block out of the whole structure, this can be fiddly.
