PillarTech

An all-in-one solution for factories, technology, automation, and progression.

Bringing together inspiration and elements from Factorio, Planet Crafter, Satisfactory, and many Minecraft mods such as AE2, buildcraft, galactic raft, computercraft, industrialcraft.

Basically a big tech modpack in a single mod for Hytale.

Work your way up from the stone age, become an engineer, set up huge factories, automate everything, make things renewable with huge production chains, and travel to space!

I started making it manually, but didn't get very far, and have used Claude AI to make most of it. If it becomes successful, I'll try to get a real artist to redo the textures and models.

Rocket system, in which rockets can be used for fast travel to other launchpads

Send resources to space with the rocket, to complete objectives found in the galactic trade terminal, and buy and sell items with fluctuating prices

Space Station, moon, and mars dimensions

Oxygen system with space suit, oxygen production, airlocks, oxygen canisters etc

Lower gravity on space dimensions

Fracking system for mining oil and gas

Coming soon: Fusion reactors, vehicles, more metals and alloys, more chemistry related processes, pollution effects, possibly more enemies and dimensions.

Many of these systems are barebones, and will likely be changed and overhauled a lot in the future. It might be risky to use this in a long-term world that is important to you.

I'd love to get suggestions and feedback.
