Weird Contraption 7
The 7th pack in the WC series. This time with a heavy focus on create and factory building.
About this Modpack
If you like automation and big factories, Weird Contraption 7 (WC7) will not disappoint. It builds on top and around the create mod, specifically the post production update.
Want to build a machine that produces every valuable item in the game?
Build an extensive rail network to bring all the resources to you, fully automatic?
Challenge yourself with strong new boss enemies?
Or even demonstrate your technical superiority with modern firearms?
WC7 has you covered. The intended goal of the pack is to build the resonance engine, a stress generating block that is difficult to craft, but the real goal is of course whatever you want it to be.
Expand the village you spawn in into a blooming production facility, and defend it against the undead. Explore the world and get to the bottom of the deep dark (rhetorically and literally). Find the remains of failed engineers who weren't strong enough to compete with the big enemies of this world. Are you stronger than these engineers? Can you build a factory that is big enough to withstand these threats? Time to prove yourself.
