This mod will most likely be merged into a bigger project in the near future

Work is currently being done to merge this mod into Always More Items. This page will be updated once it has been merged. The API will however mostly remain the same so it can still be a good decision to use this mod until the merge has been completed. A wiki page will be created to provide clear instructions for migrating older recipes to the new format.

Feature overview

Note: This mod is a library and will therefore not impact the game on its own.

Block rendering

The majority of the tab is used to display a complete model of the multiblock which can be rotated (by holding left mouse button) and zoomed in and out of (by holding right mouse button).

Block list

Shows a list of required blocks at the left side, making it easier to figure out which blocks are needed.

Layer mode

Default is A (all) which shows the whole multiblock. The arrow buttons next to the text can be used to cycle between individual layers.

Description window

A text box containing a description for the multiblock can be opened by holding the shift key. Allows mod creators to precisely specify line breaks.

Future plans

Block entity rendering support

A current technical limitation is the fact multiblocks only have a BlockView for rendering and not a full World object. This means block entities with unique rendering logic will still show as regular blocks. Once an elegant solution is found, this will be resolved.

Layer specific block list

The block list currently always shows the block requirement of the whole multiblock. The plan is to have the block list adapt to the currently displayed layer(s) to make it easier for players to count the required blocks for each layer during construction.
