More Transmission

144 material shafts for Create — every one of them behaves exactly like a vanilla shaft, and every one of them has a speed limit. Spin it too fast and it shatters.

Dirt, wood, stone, wool, glass, gold, obsidian, bedrock — if it's a block in vanilla Minecraft, there's likely a shaft made of it. They transmit rotation, connect to cogwheels, take casings and brackets, support waterlogging and can be moved by pistons and contraptions, exactly like Create's own shaft does.

What sets them apart is the material. Each shaft inherits the properties of the block it's made from — hardness, sound, the tool that mines it, how it drops, even whether it glows. On top of that, every shaft carries its own configurable maximum speed.

✨ Highlights

• 144 shafts, 144 looks. From dirt and planks to diamond blocks, wool, stained glass and bedrock.
• Material-derived properties. Wooden shafts want an axe, soft ones a shovel, stone and ores a pickaxe. Wool shafts behave like wool (shears 5× / sword 1.5×). Glass shafts break with anything but only drop with Silk Touch. Glowstone, sea lantern, magma and sculk shafts light up your build.
• A speed ceiling per shaft. Every shaft has a maximum RPM. Exceed it and the shaft shatters — the TNT shaft explodes instead. All values are editable per shaft in the config file.
• The limit is visible. Hover any shaft and the tooltip shows its Max Speed — no guessing, no wiki required.
• Special shafts:
  • 🧨 TNT Shaft — ignites from fire, lava, flint & steel or a fire charge, and detonates instantly (no fuse). Also explodes if overspun. One use only.
  • 🔴 Redstone Shaft — emits a constant redstone signal of 15 in all directions, like a block of redstone.
  • 🪨 Bedrock Shaft — unbreakable in survival, and rated for the full 256 RPM.
  • 🪟 Glass Shafts (18 of them) — transparent, but terrible under load.
• No Create code modified. Kinetic networks, rendering, casings, brackets and contraption movement are all Create's own logic. The speed limit is attached through Create's BlockEntityBehaviourEvent.
• Bilingual. Built-in English and Simplified Chinese.

⚙️ How the speed ceiling works

• Direction doesn't matter — the check uses the absolute value, so spinning backwards past the limit breaks it too.
• They break together — every shaft of the same type on an over-speeding network shatters at the same moment.

⚠️ This mod also gives Create's own shaft a limit

The speed ceiling is applied to the vanilla create:shaft as well, with a default limit of 128 RPM. If you run high-RPM setups — large windmills, a 256 RPM motor — built entirely from vanilla shafts, they will fly apart.

Vanilla behaviour is one config edit away: set shaft = 256, or switch those lines to a shaft with a higher rating (netherite block, obsidian or bedrock, all rated 256 RPM).

🧱 Materials & default speed limits

144 shafts, grouped into 11 tiers. The higher the rating, the more power the shaft can take.

These are defaults. Every single value can be changed in the config.

🛠 Crafting

Each shaft has three recipes (dirt shaft shown):

The stonecutter recipe is the cheapest, and the reverse recipe means leftover shafts are never wasted.

🔧 Configuration

Generated on first launch at config/more_transmission-common.toml:

[shaft_max_speed]
	#Max speed for dirt_shaft (default 16)
	# Range: 0 ~ 256
	dirt_shaft = 16
	...
	#Max speed for shaft (default 128)
	shaft = 128      # <- this one is Create's own shaft

• Range 0–256.
• 0 does not mean "disabled" — it means it shatters the moment it spins.
• 256 effectively turns shattering off, since 256 RPM is Create's default speed cap.
• Save and restart (or use Reload in the config screen) to apply.
• Tooltips update to match, so you can always see the active value.

📦 Installation

1. Minecraft 1.21.1 with NeoForge 21.1.250 or newer.
2. Create 6.0.10 or newer.
3. Drop more_transmission-neo_1.21.1-1.0.0.jar into .minecraft/mods/.
4. Launch — a "More Transmission" tab appears in the creative inventory.

JEI is optional and only used for recipe lookup.

🔌 Compatibility

• Every shaft extends Create's ShaftBlock / BracketedKineticBlockEntity, so kinetic networks, rotation rendering, brackets, casing and waterlogging all run on Create's own code.
• Create itself is not modified — the speed limit is injected through BlockEntityBehaviourEvent, and the tooltip through NeoForge's ItemTooltipEvent.
• Works alongside other Create addons. Datapack and modpack friendly.

为机械动力（Create）添加 144 种材质的传动杆——每一根都和原版轴用法完全一致，每一根都有自己的转速上限，转太快就会碎裂。

泥土、木头、石头、羊毛、玻璃、金块、黑曜石、基岩……原版里几乎所有方块，都有一根对应的传动杆。它们能传动、能接齿轮、能套封套、能挂支架、能含水、能被活塞和装置搬走，和 Create 原版轴一模一样。

区别在材质。每根杆都继承对应原版方块的属性——硬度、音效、挖掘工具、掉落规则，甚至是否发光。在此之上，每根杆还有自己的可配置转速上限。

✨ 特色

• 144 种传动杆。 从泥土、木板到钻石块、羊毛、染色玻璃和基岩。
• 材质化物性。 木质轴用斧头、松软材质用铲子、石质与矿物用镐；羊毛轴和挖羊毛一样（剪刀 5× / 剑 1.5×）；玻璃轴任意工具能挖，但只有精准采集才掉落；荧石、海晶灯、岩浆块、幽匿轴还能当灯用。
• 每根杆都有转速上限。 超过上限就会碎裂，TNT 传动杆则是爆炸。所有数值都可在配置文件中逐根修改。
• 上限看得见。 物品提示框直接显示 最大转速，不用查资料。
• 特殊传动杆：
  • 🧨 TNT 传动杆：可被火、岩浆、打火石、火焰弹点燃，立即爆炸（没有引信）；转速超限也会自爆。一次性用品。
  • 🔴 红石块传动杆：像红石块一样，向六个面持续发出 15 级红石信号。
  • 🪨 基岩传动杆：生存模式下挖不掉，且能吃满 256 RPM。
  • 🪟 玻璃传动杆（18 种）：透明好看，但别上高速网络。
• 不改动 Create 任何代码。 动能网络、渲染、封套、支架、装置搬运全部由 Create 原生逻辑驱动；转速上限通过 Create 的 BlockEntityBehaviourEvent 注入。
• 中英双语内置语言文件。

⚙️ 转速上限怎么运作

• 正转反转都算——判定的是绝对值，倒着转超速一样会碎。
• 会一起碎——同一动能网络里，转速超标的同款杆子会在同一时刻集体碎裂。

⚠️ 本模组也会限制 Create 原版轴

转速上限同时作用于原版 create:shaft，默认上限 128 RPM。如果你用原版轴搭了大型风车或 256 RPM 大电机这类高转速方案，它们会当场散架。

想恢复原版手感：把配置里 shaft 改成 256，或把那些线路换成上限更高的材质（下界合金块 / 黑曜石 / 基岩，上限均为 256 RPM）。

🧱 材质与默认转速

144 根杆按上限分成 11 档，上限越高，能接的动力越猛。

以上均为默认值，全部可在配置文件中修改。

🛠 合成

每根杆都有三条配方（以泥土传动杆为例）：

切石机那条最省材料，逆向配方则让多做的杆子不会浪费。

🔧 配置文件

首次启动时在 config/more_transmission-common.toml 生成：

[shaft_max_speed]
	#Max speed for dirt_shaft (default 16)
	# Range: 0 ~ 256
	dirt_shaft = 16
	...
	#Max speed for shaft (default 128)
	shaft = 128      # <- 这一条是 Create 原版传动轴

• 值域 0 ~ 256。
• 0 不是"关闭"，而是"一有转速就碎"。
• 256 基本等于关掉碎裂——Create 默认转速上限就是 256 RPM。
• 保存后重启游戏（或在配置界面重载）生效。
• 提示框里的数字会同步更新，随时能看到当前生效值。

📦 安装

1. Minecraft 1.21.1 + NeoForge 21.1.250 或更高。
2. 机械动力 Create 6.0.10 或更高。
3. 把 more_transmission-neo_1.21.1-1.0.0.jar 放进 .minecraft/mods/。
4. 启动游戏，创造物品栏出现「更多传动」分类。

JEI 为可选，仅用于查看配方。

🔌 兼容性

• 所有轴继承 Create 的 ShaftBlock / BracketedKineticBlockEntity，动能网络、旋转渲染、支架、封套、含水全部由 Create 自身逻辑驱动。
• 不改动 Create 代码——转速上限通过 BlockEntityBehaviourEvent 注入，提示框通过 NeoForge 的 ItemTooltipEvent 追加。
• 可与其它 Create 附属模组共存，数据包与整合包友好。
