ViesCraft Machines

— – — uses Forge —+ : JAVA 17

Ground Machines: These are machines that hover 1 to 2 blocks above the ground when powered on and burning fuel. 
            
        – Can hover over solids and liquids.
        – Slow movement and handling speed.
        – Moderate movement and handling speed.
        – Being in water greatly slows forward speed.

     Sea Machines: These are machines that have the ability to travel over water.
            
        – Fast movement and handling speed.
        – Being on land greatly slows forward speed.

     Hauler Machines: These machines are 1 seater, slow machines that move like ground machines and have a lot of storage slots with their ‘Storage Box’ system.
            
        – Has a ‘Storage Box’ system for the inventory. 1 item = 9 slots.
        – Can hover over solids and liquids.
        – Very slow movement and handling speed.
        – Being in water greatly slows forward speed.

     Underwater Machines: These are machines that have the ability to travel under water.
            
        – Very fast movement and handling speed.
        – Being on land greatly slows forward speed.

All machine parts, including the Machine Chassis, are created either in the crafting table or smelted, but not the finished machines themselves. You will need to throw the “Machine Chassis” to unfold it into the world and apply construction kits directly to the frame. When all required kits have been applied, grab your Machine Wrench tool and [Sneak] + Right Click to finish construction! Players who finish construction becomes the default owner of the machine.

Information on missing or applied kits can be seen hovering over the frame. If you want to turn the Machine Chassis back into an item, [Sneak] + Right Click the frame with an empty hand. This will preserve any applied Construction Kits.

Machines need to be powered on and have fuel to move. Start with opening the machine’s main menu by pressing ‘R’ (default key) or while looking at a machine, [Sneak] + Right Click with no driver. Drag either Machine Pellets (a machine efficient fuel), coal, or charcoal (more can be added upon request) into the fuel slot, then click the power button to turn the machine on. The button will light up green showing you it is on.

The burntime will vary depending on the fuel used. When a machine runs out of fuel, it will stop moving and fall to the ground until more fuel is added. Turn machines off to conserve fuel when there is no driver sitting in it. If there is no player in a machine, active fuel will still be consumed. If the active fuel is used up with no player, the machines will not consume more items and will power down.

This is equivalent to an entites ‘Health’. As a machine runs or takes damage, the durability is slowly reduced over time. When durability is low, machine engines will periodically backfire and will begin to smoke. If durability reaches 0, the machine will break.

When a machine reaches 0 durability, it will break. Broken machines can’t turn on and must be patched in order to be used again. To patch a machine, grab your Machine Wrench and [Sneak] + Right Click it to patch. When a machine is patched, it will exit the broken state and will receive 5 bonus durability.

Make sure to apply a Durability Service Kit to increase the durability and to repair the machine to keep the engine running smooth. Too many quick patchs with no repairs in a row (3 strikes) will cause the machine to explode! When a machine explodes, it damages the area and entites around it and will convert back to a machine chassis minus one random construction kit.

While machines are on, press and hold the [Turbo] key (default ‘G’) to make the forward speed of a machine move twice as fast! Be warned, the fuel and durability will also drain 25% faster!

Coming soon!

There are minor and major engine issues. For now, only smoke particles and the sound of metal being hit occur (occurs more often with major issues). More coming soon!

Machines can be ‘locked’ from the machine’s main menu. Only a machine’s owner can lock and unlock a machine. If locked, no one but the owner will be able to enter the machine or access core features of the machine’s main menu. Owners will always have access to their locked machines.

Owners can use the ‘Ignition Key’ to allow non-owners access to a locked machine. The key can be programmed to a user by holding the key in hand and pressing [Sneak] + Right Click, then given to others. This key programs itself to the player so it can be used to access all machines that player owns. This key must be placed in the ‘key slot’ in the machine’s main menu to override the lock. If a key is removed while being driven by a non-owner they will be immediately dismounted from the machine. If a correctly assigned key is in the ‘key slot’, the lights on the side of the ‘key slot’ will light up green. If not, the lights will be red.
