What Automation works with.
| Platform | Java Edition |
|---|---|
| Loaders | NeoForge |
| Minecraft versions | 1.21.1 |
| Environment | Client, Server |
Automation is a Create-focused modpack for Minecraft Java on NeoForge 1.21.1, centred on pure automation. It is required on both client and server, so it fits shared multiplayer worlds.
What's included
The pack keeps its mod list short and names four core mods.
- Create for contraptions and machinery, the base of the whole pack.
- Aeronautics, listed among the core mods.
- The Factory Must Grow, also listed among the core mods.
- CC: Tweaked, listed as CC: Tweaked (ComputerCraft).
Progression and pacing
The pack describes itself as simple, with a focus on pure automation. The loop is to build contraptions, make vehicles, extract oil and refine fuel that powers high-performance planes, cars and more. It rewards players who like planning a factory and then wiring it up, and it gives little reason to wander if you want exploration or combat.
How to install Automation
- 1.Open the Modrinth page and choose the NeoForge 1.21.1 release.
- 2.Import it into the Modrinth App, or into Prism Launcher or another launcher that reads .mrpack files. The launcher fetches the listed mods and NeoForge. The steps are covered in how to install a modpack.
- 3.Launch the profile and create a world, or join a host that runs the same pack.
Questions about Automation.
4 questions
Which Minecraft version does Automation support?
The current release targets Minecraft 1.21.1 on NeoForge. Older Forge releases covered 1.18.2 to 1.20.1 and a Fabric release covered 1.18.2, but both loaders have stopped, so NeoForge 1.21.1 is the one to pick for a new world.
Does Automation work on multiplayer?
Yes. The pack is required on both client and server, and it is tagged for multiplayer on Modrinth. Every player needs the same pack installed, and the host must run it too, otherwise the mod lists will not match.
How do I install the Automation modpack?
Import it through the Modrinth App, or through Prism Launcher or another launcher that reads .mrpack files. The launcher downloads the listed mods and the NeoForge loader for you. Then launch the profile and start a world.
What mods does Automation include?
The pack names four core mods: Create, Aeronautics, The Factory Must Grow and CC: Tweaked (ComputerCraft). It is described as a simple modpack focused on pure automation and Create, where players build contraptions, make vehicles, extract oil and refine fuel for high-performance planes and cars.
