Overview

Compact Machines (mod id compactmachines) lets you build an entire base inside a single block. Every Compact Machine block contains its own room in a pocket dimension: walk in, build freely, walk out - and everything stays exactly where you left it, compressed into one placeable block.

The rooms live in the mod's own dimension, sealed behind unbreakable machine walls and kept safe from the outside world. Rooms are template-based spaces - no world scanning, no chunk abuse - so they stay lightweight even with many machines placed.

Typical uses:

  • Compress a sprawling machine hall into one tidy block.
  • Hide infrastructure (power, storage, farms) inside your walls.
  • Carry a whole workshop between locations by picking up a single block.
  • Nest rooms inside rooms - a Compact Machine works perfectly well inside another Compact Machine.

Compact Machines is a standalone content mod with no library dependencies. The original mod is by the CompactMods team - davenonymous, robotgryphon and contributors (github.com/CompactMods/CompactMachines), released under the MIT license.
