Create Hangars Data Pack FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

How do I find a hangar in my world?
Hangars generate naturally in specific biomes including Plains, Savannah, Forests (Birch, Taiga, Dark Oak), Cherry Groves, Jungles, and Bamboo Forests. Explore these biome types and look for large wooden or stone structures; they're often built on hills or elevated terrain. The Bamboo Hangar variant is rarer than the regular Jungle version, so you may need to search longer in bamboo forests.
What's inside the hangar chests?
Hangar chests contain machine parts (cogwheels, springs, andesite alloy, redstone magnets, copper sheets), basic materials (iron nuggets, slimeballs, string, dried kelp), and Create components (burners and various sail types). The exact loot varies, but all items are useful for building flying machines.
Can I use hangar loot to build a flying machine right away?
Yes—hangar chests provide machine parts and materials specifically designed to jumpstart flying machine construction. You'll find cogwheels, springs, burners, sails, and copper sheets that form the foundation of Create: Aeronautics contraptions.
Do hangars look different in different biomes?
Yes, each hangar adapts its building style to match its biome. A Birch Forest hangar uses birch wood, a Dark Forest hangar uses dark stone, and a Cherry Grove hangar reflects that biome's aesthetic. This makes exploration more visually interesting and helps you identify which biome you're in.
Are hangars rare or common?
Hangars spawn regularly enough that you should find one within reasonable exploration, but they're not everywhere. The Bamboo Hangar is intentionally harder to find than other variants, so expect to search longer in bamboo forests.
Can I loot a hangar multiple times?
Hangar chests are one-time loot sources that generate with the structure. Once you've taken the items, the chests remain empty unless you manually refill them.
Do hangars work with other Create mods?
This data pack is designed specifically for Create: Aeronautics and generates loot tailored to that mod's flying machine components. It should work alongside other Create add-ons, but hangars won't contain items from unrelated mods.
What if I can't find a hangar after searching for a while?
Make sure you're exploring the correct biomes (Plains, Savannah, Forests, Cherry Groves, Jungles, and Bamboo Forests). Hangars often spawn on elevated terrain like hills and cliffs, so check higher ground. If you're in a Bamboo Forest, remember that variant is rarer.
Do I need to do anything special to make hangars generate?
No—hangars generate automatically when you explore compatible biomes. Just load the data pack and play normally; structures will appear as you generate new chunks.
Can I disable hangars in specific biomes?
That depends on the data pack's configuration options. Check the mod's settings or documentation for customization; some data packs allow you to toggle specific structure types or biomes.
