BioCraft: Living Machines

BioCraft 0.12.0 — The Large Heart

Alpha · Minecraft 1.21.1 · NeoForge

Added

• Large Heart: a new 3×3×4 multiblock organ built from bone frames, heart chambers, a nutrient inlet, a vascular outlet, and a controller.
• Stores 16,000 mB of biofluid and pumps up to 400 mB per second by default—four times the capacity and throughput of the small heart. Both values are configurable.
• Automatically draws biofluid from a vat or tank directly behind its inlet. External fluid pipes can also supply the inlet.
• Powers existing vessel networks, muscles, and cultivators, with redstone and nerve-node control.
• Automatically assembles, checks its structure, and reports construction problems. Damage stops pumping and intake while preserving fluid in the controller; repairing the structure restores operation.
• Five new component recipes and a Large Heart guidebook entry with a layer-by-layer building guide.
• Pulsing textures and lighting for active heart chambers.

Notes

• Higher throughput supports more parallel supply lines; it does not speed up individual machines or increase the 256-vessel network limit.
• The Large Heart currently uses a prototype model. Full geometric pulse animation is not included.
• The original single-block heart remains available.
