Create: Maintenance
Adds a maintenance mechanic to Create and TFMG
About this Mod
Are you tired of your stuff not exploding??
Look no further than this mod!
Description
Create: Maintenance adds a new maintenance mechanic to the Create mod and its addon, The Factory Must Grow.
Various machines, from basins to steam and gasoline engines, to distillation towers, will now degrade as they are used, and will require you to maintain them. For the full list, scroll down!
This presents the player with a new challenge to tackle, by forcing them to handle the logistics of maintenance and producing capital. With this addon, further incentive is given to mass produce things like andesite alloy, brass, and steel.
This mod also has a high degree of configuratibility, making it suitable for implementation in any modpack!
This mod is compatible with Create 5 and 6, and TFMG 1.x.
NOTE: If you are adding this to a world that already has engines, waterwheels, etc, you must use the /regeneratewearing command to give the blocks the decaying mechanic. (do not use it on a block that already decays)
