Haven't you ever thought, “Man, it would be great if I could just easily transport my little off-road vehicle into the Nether,” or “If only I could easily bring my portable drill onto my airship to go mine a few thousand blocks away”? No? Okay, move along.

But if transporting all your contraptions is a headache for you, and you don’t know what to do with your five different aircraft models, then this addon is for you.

Features:

Use the Capsule Reader to scan and capture nearby contraptions.
Capture named simulated contraptions inside tiered capsules.
Throw filled capsules to redeploy contraptions anywhere you want.
Use the Capsule Wallet to easily transport your capsules.
Lots of configuration options available to meet your needs.
Thanks to the API developed by Rew1nd, retain all the original settings of your contraption.

Items and Blocks

Capsule Reader

The Capsule Reader is used to capture a simulated contraption.

Place it on the contraption you want to capture, then right-click it with an empty capsule. The contraption must be named before it can be captured.

Capsules

Capsules are used to store captured contraptions.

Available tiers:

Copper Capsule
Iron Capsule
Gold Capsule
Diamond Capsule
Netherite Capsule

Once filled, a capsule takes the name of the captured contraption.

Throw a filled capsule to redeploy the contraption.

Capsule Wallet

Capsule Wallet

The Capsule Wallet can store multiple capsules in a single item. We keep it simple. Max capacity is configurable.

Demo

Configuration

You can configure:

capsule capacities
capsule wallet slots
capsule throw velocity
automatic deploy delay
post-deployment stabilization time
nearby deployment search radius

Default maximum capsule capacity is currently capped at 8192 blocks to avoid oversized ItemStack NBT and network issues. This is subject to change later !
