SourceKinetics

SourceKinetics is a Create and Ars Nouveau addon that lets you convert Source into rotational power and rotational power back into Source. Or like RPM

The mod currently adds two machines: the Source Engine and the Source Dynamo.

The Source Engine uses Source from nearby Source Jars to generate rotational power for Create machines. It has an internal Source storage of 10,000 and automatically pulls Source from adjacent jars while it has room. Once it has Source, it runs at 16 RPM and kind of quickly consumes its stored Source. Depending on how many jars you have set up, you can run it for a long time.

The Source Dynamo does the opposite. It takes rotational power from nearby Create machinery, basically cogwheels or anything else and uses it to generate Source. The generated Source can then be transferred into nearby Source Jars. The Dynamo has a storage capacity of 10,000 Source, and its generation rate depends on the speed of the Create setup powering it.

The two machines are meant to work together with normal Create and Ars Nouveau setups. You can use the Source Engine to power Create machinery from Source, or use Create machinery to power a Source Dynamo and produce Source.

SourceKinetics is currently in beta, so the balance and mechanics may change as the mod is developed. More machines and features may be added in future updates.

Requires:

• Minecraft 1.20.1
• Forge
• Create
• Ars Nouveau

Current content:

• Source Engine
• Source Dynamo
• Source storage and transfer
• Create kinetic integration
• Ars Nouveau Source integration
• In-game machine information displays

Currently, both machines only support vertical shafts/RPM output, and have no SU limits, but are limited by a net-loss loop, so no infinite energy is possible. The Dynamo, however, can output source into jars within all 6 directions. Horizontal support will definitely be added soon.
