Description

Machines! Machines! Machines! This mod brings in several machines as well as an API for power management and transfer. The system is fully self-sufficient and allows attaching the Power Source and Power Drain components to any entity. The API service automatically manages the connections and power transfer as well as the registration and unregistration of machines. This mod also implements the Engineer class as the one that creates and builds the various machines.
