I just went ahead and added all the features that I wished were in the base game into one mod. So just a ton of random items and changes that have no consistent theme other than I thought they would be fun. (Inspired in part by Quark, Extra Utilities, Random Things).
There are MANY MANY new items and blocks not shown here or in the gallery.
Screenshots and some videos inside the spoiler tags
Merchant Almanac
Pattern Replicator
Slime Pads: launch up any entity that lands on it. Can be upgraded.
Cyclic Scepter: A Tool for long range building - The mod is named after this item.
Automatic Fishing Net
Password Trigger - for wireless redstone
Piston Scepter - Push pull and rotate blocks. It even pushes chests and keeps their inventory.
Brewable Potions of Resistance, Haste, Health Boost, Luck, Waterwalk, Levitation, Magnet, Ender Aura, and Slowfall
Emerald Apple to cure villagers and unlock any 'X'd out trades
Unlockable Survival inventory tabs
Ender Wings
Water Charm
Not as good as water breathing potions in the log term, but decent for emergencies.

A sack that transports blocks with inventory (such as chests) with their contents
A machine that reverses crafting
A machine that builds simple structures over time - circles and walls
Example of one of the many config pages
Ender Book to save waypoints and teleport back to where you have already been (same dimension)
Void Charm - Safe in any dimension
Sailor Charm - faster boat travel
Fire Charm
Not as cost effective or long lasting as potions, but good in an emergency since it applies automatically.

Three different Scythes to harvest large areas. The Garden Scythe replants crops for you.
World Generation changes
Each of these features can be disabled in the config file individually
- Generate clay, sand, and dirt in the ocean instead of only gravel (like the old days)
- Generate ore in netherrack (lapis, emerald, gold, coal, diamond). The gold gives nuggets when mined
- Generate ore in the end (lapis, emerald, redstone, coal, diamond)
- Vanilla emerald ore now can spawn at any height, not only below the ground [still only in the Extreme Hills biomes as normal]
- Vanilla gold ore can spawn in and river biomes at any height
- Vanilla ores of all kinds can rarely spawn at all world heights, but only in veins of size one. Great for amplified
- Crops spawn randomly with nature. Carrots in extreme hills, wheat in plains, beetroot in forests, potatoes in taiga.
Magic Bean - gives a random mystery item when harvested.
Slime Conveyor
Note on the Optional unbreakable spawners feature (not enabled by default, so breakable as vanilla):
You must turn this off on both client side AND server side to make spawners breakable again - and of course restart the server and clients. (totally compatible with roguelike dungeons too. Thanks to t3f with the github ticket and darkphan on twitch for helping figure this out.)
In the current version of the mod, this DEFAULTS to false, meaning the default setting is spawners ARE breakable just like vanilla, but the feature is still there if you want it
Other stuff includes:
- Emerald armor & tools that are weaker than diamond, but stronger than iron
- Sandstone Tools : strength/durability is between Wood and Stone
- Wireless Redstone using a password system
- New enchantments: Double Jump, Venom, Magnet
- Projectiles, such as fire, lightning, water, explosions
- Dungeon finder that works like the ender eye but finds the closest spawner
- Special carrots to upgrade horses - speed health and jump
- Ender Orb - A reuseable ender pearl
- Ender Wings - teleport to your bed spawn or worldspawn
- Chorus based food that lets you phase through walls
- Expanded player inventory and 3x3 crafting (eat special food to unlock)
- Editing signs with your bare hand
- Faster ladder climbing (Look up and stop holding forward)
- Unbreakable spawners (turned off by default)
- More items burnable as fuel
- Ore spawns in the nether and end
- Open chests right through signs
- Generate gold in rivers
- Generate crops in certain biomes
- Ender pearls work on horseback - your mount comes with you
- Heart container item to increase your health
- 2 new villager types added with new trades - Sage and Druid
There is more stuff i haven't had time to write about. I have lots of ideas for more features too!

PERSONAL LINKS:
Using cyclic 1.15. The Item Collector should have settings for selecting range. I use it in farms which are not very big. So if I drop something by accident it goes into the collector.
Thanks for fixing the chunk update bug! Now I can start using the grinder again without my FPS tanking to single digits, yay!
Please update 1.14.4 version to right.
Hey! I loved your mod for so so SO long! It's an amazing mod, and just has incredibly useful things. Amazing job. I know version 1.14.4 isn't complete yet, but next can you add Sprinklers? I can't get an amazing build that I made without a sprinkler, and there aren't any others that have updated to this version. Just want you to know it's an amazing mod!
I've recently had a friend transfer his server's world folder for me to host intead. When I started it up everything seemed fine but I noticed my cyclic inventory is empty (the one with the 'I' after eating the inventory upgrade). I noticed there were files called `{guid}-cyclicinvo.gz` and stuff in the `world\playerdata` folder so idk why it wouldn't give me my inventory? Can anyone help?
(1.15.2) Has anyone noticed that the weapons and tools are not held correctly in your hand? Didn't see anyone comment on it so I'm just curious.
EDIT: Found a way to fix that, you can create a resource pack and copy his assets to it and under the models/items/"the tool/weapon you want to change".json modify the parent to ("parent": "item/handheld",) from ("parent": "item/generated",). That seemed to fix the issue.
In reply to xerraldis:
it seems that some are fixed and some may not be. If you had a list of the ones you fixed, you could open an issue on the github issue tracker to get them fixed for everyone else :)
How do you use the emerald apple on a villager with x'd out trades?
slime pads on 1.15.2?plz add
how do you use the melter/solidifier? i'm trying to get crystallized obsidian but i can't figure it out. this is the 1.12.2 version, by the way.
In reply to 1kingsceptile3:
The melter has to have a heat level of 12, meaning it must be completely surrounded by lava, in order to melt crystalized obsidian. also, the recipe (two obsidian, one amber crystal, and one emerald) should be put in with the two obsidians on the left of the crafting square and the crystal amber and the emerald on the right side, one above the other.
I figured this much out, but I can't seem to get the crystalized obsidian liquid out of the melter because adding a fluid extractor and pipe removes a lava source from around the melter, thus bringing the heat down and then I can't get the liquid out.
I hope this gets updated for 1.14.4 that has added the air charm the ender book and the extended inventory and portable crafting table that's what I loved most about this mod
Just a word of feedback: If you are holding any of the three scythes the game will freeze at random, and resume at random. This may be a result of Minecraft trying to "remember" the function of the scythes, causing a minor memory leak. I really like this mod, and I really like the scythes (for they are useful in thick forests, or in my case a (Biomes o' plenty) biome that has a lot of flowers), but it is of my dismay that, for the sake of my pc, I can't use this mod for now. I just needed to say that to the makers so they know this issue for 1.15.2, I am not throwing shade at this mod because it is REALLY useful and fun! Thank you for reading.
I love your mod. I am just wondering if there is a way to upgrade charms to have better durability?
Hey lothrazar, Cyclic is really a great mod but I'm currently having an issue that I never came across before. For 1.15.2, whenever I want to load up Cyclic, this happens:
"Cyclic (cyclic) encountered an error during the load_registries event phase
Block(null) has property: up with invalidy named value: ınventory" -yes, it's not "inventory", it's "ınventory".
I really don't know if there's a way to solve this. I uninstalled Minecraft, set it up from ground zero, tried loading the mod both with all the Forge versions for 1.15.2 but it happens everytime and I can't play with Cyclic.Really looking for a solution.
Thank you for your kind understanding and most importantly for your contribution for us.
you mixed up 1.12.2 and 1.15
In reply to ashly138:
it still works on 1.12 and its an update for 1.12 :O
In reply to le0nestar:
It more a thing with twitch app if that there than anyone that hit update button for this mod is gona get a 1.12.2 version in there 1.15.2 pack haha
Blazes aren't dropping items using your iron spikes in 1.15.2 ?? And there are no diamond spike alternative for XP either!
