About this Mod

Alternate Current Unofficial is an efficient and non-locational redstone dust implementation. Its main focus lies in reducing the lag caused by redstone dust, by optimizing the power calculations and reducing the number of shape and block updates emitted. As a side effect of these changes the block update order of redstone dust networks is predictable and intuitive rather than locational and chaotic.

This is an unofficial 1.7.10 and 1.12.2 forge port of the Alternate Current mod for legacy fabric. Please support the original work.
