Multiblock Parts:
From GT:NH:
Air Intake Hatch
- Ported from GT++ but it collects dimensions specific gas now!
- Is a Gas Collector that passively generates air.
My own:
Creative Energy Source
- Configurable like the creative emitter, but as a multiblock part.
- You need to make the multiblock reform when you change its setting because right now because GregTech doesn't have a way for an energy container to notify the multiblock controller that its voltage/amperage has changed.
Creative Energy Sink
- Behaves the same as the Creative Energy Hatch but drains energy from the multiblock instead of providing.
- Same UI as the Creative Energy Source
Creative Item Bus
- An input bus that can be set to any 16 items and provides them to the connected multiblock
Super Input Bus
- An input bus that has 16 slots but each slot can hold up to MAX_INT items
- Depending on how many items are inside, it may take a while to empty back into and interface until AE2UEL PR #448 makes its way into a stable release (v0.56.6 is NOT stable)
Creative Fluid Hatch
- Same as the normal reservoir hatch but can be changed to provide other fluids.
Creative Computation Provider
- Acts as an HPCA that can supply up to 2,147,483,647 CWU/t!
- Backported from GregTech Modern, and will be moved into base CEu once M-W-K finishes their PipeNet rewrite.
Dual Cover
- Combines the conveyor and pump into one cover!
Precise Dual Cover
- Combines the robot arm and fluid regulator into one cover!
Single Item Input Bus
- Functionally identical to a ULV input bus, but it has a max stack size of 1.
Larger parallel hatch
- The same as normal GCYM parallel hatches, but with much larger values!
- Will turn your Ticks Per Second into Seconds Per Tick if used when doing recipes with chanced outputs! :troll:
Dropper Cover
- Is placed on any gregtech block that accepts covers and will drop items from its inventory.
Credited Works
- GT:NH for many of its multiblocks.
- Ursamina for the dual cover textures and the icon! :heart:
- Synthitic for porting GT:NH's CoAL to GCYL: CEu, which I more or less directly copied.
- GT:CEu for much code inspiration.
- MkcTao/D-Alessian for the Large Air Collector multiblock shape.
- Quacker quack from https://freesound.org/people/WavJunction.com/sounds/456770/.

ZBGT server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong forge version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.12.2). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.
Is ZBGT compatible with forge?
ZBGT officially supports forge for Minecraft 1.12.2. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with ZBGT – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if ZBGT consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
