IMPORTANT UPGRADE NOTICE
Please remove previous config/capsule.cfg file when upgrading so that it regenerates. Incompatible blocks get blacklisted to prevent any loss: you want this file to be up-to-date.
See https://github.com/Lythom/capsule/wiki/Known-incompatibilities for more details.
Biggest Features
- Move you base! An entire base packed in a 31x31x31 can be moved entirely including machines. You can be a real traveler now.
- Build faster with blueprints! Blueprint capsules can take materials from chests or other inventories to duplicate a structure. It supports rotation and mirror.
- Modpack making options, so that player can be rewarded with ready to deploy structures or loot them in chests.
- A ton of possibilities ! Capsules can be used as early backpack moving a chest, as portable ladder, to deploy protecting walls to recover during a fight, to move machines or multiblocks, and more… unleash your creativity !
Getting started
The first capsule you will have access to is made of wood. It's size is 1x1x1 which enables the "instant mode".
"Wooden capsule" recipe
It means you can capture any block (ie. a chest or a crafting table) by right clicking it, then deploy and undeploy it instantly by right clicking again with the capsule in hand.
If right click open a GUI, try to capture from a distance or while sneaking.
Getting bigger
To get to the big things, you first need a capture base. This is where you can initialize a capsule with it's first content. You'll be able to capture the region on top of it.
"Capture Base" recipe
Then you need an empty capsule (the top item is a stone button) :
"Iron Empty Capsule" recipe, default capture size : 3x3x3
"Gold Empty Capsule" recipe, default capture size : 5x5x5
"Diamond Empty Capsule" recipe, default capture size : 7x7x7
Obsidian (9x9x9) and Emerald (11x11x11) capsules also exists, check JEI !
Empty Capsule
Throw it near the capture base !
- Right click : activate
- Right click while activated : throw the capsule.
- Once the content is captured, the capsule can be deployed or undeployed at will.
Initial capture
Note that all the capsule can be dyed (affect the base color) and labeled (sneak + right click).
Linked capsule
- Deploy : Right click once to activate, right click again to throw at the preview positions (are ahead not aiming a block).
- Undeploy : Right click the "Deployed" capsule and the content will be stored again into the capsule, whereever it currently is.
- Label : Sneak + Right click to open the label editing screen.
Deploy / undeploy

I really wish this was on the most recent version of minecraft. I would love to be able to move a little base around and become a proper traveller
In reply to spatiumsimia:
I plan to update the mod to 1.14 as soon as forge publish a stable version! Currently forge for minecraft 1.14 exists but is not considered stable so I'll wait until it is !
Wow, your mod is amazing, I thought I would never find a real useful mod for an explorer like me who hates to settle in one place, thanks to your mod, I no longer need the useful backpacks mod or the nomadic tents mod, your mod is very useful.
In reply to hitmansssilent:
Thanks ! Have fun ! :D
Why are all the premade blue capsules infinite use? That makes them too exploitable to ever be used by pack devs as rewards or loot.
In reply to Boolyman:
Hey Boolyman ! They are infinite use only if you are in creative mode. In survival you need to gather the materials to reload them, so they act more like a blueprint.
Hey, could you add a config option to disable the starting base. I tried just deleting it in the config, but it keeps regenerating. Thanks
In reply to TheQKnight:
also, an option to make dungeon-found capsules one use again would be great.
In reply to TheQKnight:
"Add configuration to force one-use capsules in loot chest " is now on my todo list. It should come with next release!
In reply to TheQKnight:
Hello ! To disable the starting base, you can remove the files under `<instance>config/capsule/starters`. (The folder must exist and be empty so that no starters are generated).
In reply to Lythom:
Hi. Thank you for responding so quickly. I just realized this was an issue with twitch and how they handle modpack updates. I uploaded an update for my pack that had traver's_base.nbt removed, but when I updated my pack (the old version still had that file inside the starters folder) it was still there. Apparently twitch just keeps files that aren't overwritten in the folder when you update. I guess adding a config option for it might work, since the config would get overwritten when the pack updates, but I would understand as it's not a direct issue with the mod. Thanks anyway!
In reply to TheQKnight:
As a work around, you can create a new empty folder, for exemple "config/capsule/nostarters", then modify the capsule.cfg to have `S:starterTemplatesPath=config/capsule/nostarters` as configured starter folder. The mod tries to populate the folder with default starter only if the folder doesn't exists, but if it already exists it should leave it empty.
Also, I just pushed the submit button for the v3.2.102 of capsule that includes a new `allowBlueprintReward` in config, so it should be available in a few minutes. allowBlueprintReward is true by default, set it to false to get only one-use capsule in reward chests!
Have fun :)

Wow, that was quick. Thanks!
