Engineers' Materials

简体中文

A Tinkers' Construct addon that brings the materials and engineer equipment of Create into TiC.

---

Features

• 🧪 6 new materials — Andesite Alloy, Zinc, Cardboard, Chocolate, Rose Quartz and Brass, usable in TiC tools and armor.
• 🔧 11 new modifiers — 6 material traits plus 5 engineer modifiers that replicate Create's engineer equipment.
• ⚙️ Deep Create integration:
  • Crushing & washing recipes for cobalt ore (yielding cobalt nuggets and Netherite Scrap).
  • Mixing recipes to craft TiC slime balls from dough.
  • Wear TiC gear to gain Create's goggles, wrench and diving boots effects.
• 🌐 Bilingual: full en_us and zh_cn translations, generated via data generation.

Materials

The mod introduces 6 materials from the world of Create into TiC:

Material	Material ID	Tier	Part Builder	Trait	Highlights
Andesite Alloy	andesite_alloy	2	✅	Tenacious	Well-rounded boosts; 220 durability / 5.5 attack
Zinc	zinc	2	❌ (from Create)	Rustless	Converts Andesite into Andesite Alloy in mined drops
Cardboard	cardboard	2	✅	Weak	No damage but lightning fast; grants stealth
Chocolate	chocolate	2	✅	Nourishing	Directly edible — sweet & delicious
Rose Quartz	rose_quartz	3	✅	Rose Blade	Diamond-level mining; doubled ranged damage
Brass	brass	3	❌ (from Create)	Precise	600 durability / 6.0 attack; easy to repair

Materials marked "from Create" are obtained from the Create mod and used in the Tinker Station.

Diving boots	DivingBootsModification (mixin)	TiC boots with Diving Weights are treated as Create diving boots
Cardboard armor	TinkerCardboardArmorSupport (mixin)	All-Cardboard TiC armor triggers Create's cardboard stealth
Stealth overlay	TinkerCardboardArmorOverlay (mixin, client)	TiC Cardboard helmets render Create's stealth HUD overlay (toggleable in config)

Configuration

Client config (config/engineersmaterials-client.toml):

Option	Default	Description

Development

Prerequisites

• JDK 17
• Gradle (use the bundled gradlew)

Commands

# Build the mod jar (outputs to build/libs/)
gradlew build

# Run the client
gradlew runClient

# Run the server
gradlew runServer

# Run data generation (outputs to src/generated/resources/)
gradlew runData

# Clean
gradlew clean

Data Generation

The mod relies on data generation for all materials and modifiers:

• Materials: definition (MaterialDataProvider), stats (MaterialStatsProvider), traits (MaterialTraitDataProvider), render info (MaterialRenderInfoProvider), sprites (MaterialSpriteProvider), tags (MaterialTagProvider)
• Modifiers: definition & effects (ModifierProvider), tags (ModifierTagProvider)
• Recipes: crushing (CTCrushingGen), washing (CTWashingGen), mixing (CTMixingGen)
• Lang: en_us (CTENUSLang), zh_cn (CTZHCNLang)

Compatibility

• Loader: Forge ([47,)), runs on both client and server.
• Data/resource pack friendly: materials and recipes are data-generated and fully overridable.
• Extension API: CTMaterials, MaterialStatsProvider and MaterialTraitDataProvider expose static register(...) methods, allowing addons to register materials without modifying this mod.
