Foundry Floor

Build the factory around your machines.

Foundry Floor adds modular industrial architecture to Hytale: steel floors, connected grates, raised catwalks, loading bays and a dedicated crafting bench, all in a shared dark-steel and safety-yellow style.

Experimental alpha — actively in development. Before a more stable 1.0.0, minor version upgrades may introduce breaking changes to recipes, behaviour or saved data. Back up your complete world and player data with the matching mod JAR before upgrading.

Build your factory

• Foundry Workbench: one dedicated bench with five tabs — Floors, Walkways, Structure, Fixtures and Mechanisms — and 27 craftable factory blocks.
• Connected floors and walkways: riveted plates, safety-edge floors, concrete, drain grates and catwalks. Compatible grated pieces remove their shared edge frames; side-by-side stair flights form wider stairs.
• Factory shells: matching steel walls, corrugated roofs, framed windows, glass panes, columns and crossbeams.
• Working mechanisms: a rolling loading-bay shutter, hinged catwalk safety gate, personnel door, service hatch, guarded wall lamp and high-bay pendant light.
• Workshop details: connecting wall vents and cargo pallets, plus straight and elbow utility ducts. Ducts and vents are architectural props; they do not transport fluids, items or power.

Get started

1. Install the mod and enable FoundryFloor in your world's Mods tab.
2. At a standard Workbench, craft a Foundry Workbench with 8 Iron Ingots and 4 Copper Ingots.
3. Place it and use its five crafting tabs. The bench needs no fuel or power.
4. Start with Riveted floor plate, then add safety edges, stairs, catwalks and your factory shell.

Use normal block placement and R to rotate directional pieces. Press the game's Use action (F by default) to operate mechanisms and lights. Leave the full moving or swinging area clear. The player who placed a mechanism owns its controls and removal; other players can use the crafting bench.

Install and compatibility

Hytale 0.7.3 only; Java 25 for the server. The store's 0.7 tag does not imply compatibility with every patch. No other mod is required. Other Hytale versions and arbitrary mod combinations are not certified.

Save and close your world or stop its server before installing. Put one Foundry Floor JAR in Hytale's UserData/Mods folder, or your dedicated server's configured mods directory. Remove the older Foundry JAR when updating so only one version is installed, then enable the mod for the world. The JAR includes its resource pack; no separate asset ZIP is needed.

Player testing has covered crafting, placement, mechanical controls, normal save/reload, sounds and multiplayer. This is an experimental preview, not a guarantee for every world or large server setup.

Known limits

• The personnel door works, but its animation needs smoothing: door animation issue.
• Elevators, guide extensions and call panels are deferred. Earlier placed parts are inert compatibility objects and cannot be crafted or placed again.
• Catwalk decks were moved to the top of their cells in the latest repair; check older stair landings after updating.
