Create Kinetic FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

How do I start using Create Kinetic Mod?
First, make sure you have Create Aeronautics and Valkyrien Skies 2 installed alongside this mod. Then craft a ship totem and place steering wheels, thrusters, or sails on your ship structure to control it—no redstone required for basic steering.
What's the difference between a helm and a joystick?
Wooden helms let you steer your ship by right-clicking and using traditional controls, while the joystick block uses your mouse movement for more intuitive, real-time steering of flying ships.
How do I make my ship stop sinking?
Add buoys around your ship's hull to improve flotation, or use tank ballasts filled with water to adjust your ship's weight and buoyancy until it floats at the level you want.
Why isn't my ship turning when I use rudders?
Make sure your rudders are properly attached to the ship structure and that your ship has enough speed or thrust to respond to turning inputs—stationary ships won't turn.
Can I use frequency filters to separate multiple ships' redstone signals?
Yes, the frequency filter lets you assign unique codes to different ships so their redstone signals don't interfere with each other, useful for multi-ship servers or bases.
What do reaction wheels do?
Reaction wheels spin to automatically stabilize your flying ship and keep it level in the air, preventing it from tipping or rolling uncontrollably.
How do I recover a ship that flew away?
Use the ship totem you crafted earlier—rename it to match your ship's name using the /ship rename command, then click it in your hand to teleport the ship back to you.
Can I use tank treads to drive ships on land?
Yes, tank treads let you create ground vehicles that you can dye any color and drive around like a normal ship, giving you an alternative to water and air travel.
What happens if I use /ship freeze on my ship?
The /ship freeze command completely stops your ship from moving, which is useful for parking or preventing accidental drift while you work on it.
Do sails and thrusters work together?
Yes, you can combine sails for wind-based propulsion with thrusters for powered flight, giving you flexible options for how you want to move your ship.
