Modular Force Fields Systems FAQ
20 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I get started with Modular Force Fields?
Craft a 
Force Field Projector and a 
Fortron Capacitor, place the projector where you want the field centered, and give it power. Then use the projector's GUI to pick a shape mode and link a 
Frequency Card so the field knows what to project.

force field?
Force fields run on Fortron, which is generated by the 
Coercion Deriver and stored in Fortron Capacitors or Batteries. Connect the deriver to your projector through capacitors, or use an 
Infinite Power Card in creative-style setups.

The most common causes are no Fortron in the network, a missing or unlinked Frequency Card, or the projector being set to a shape with a scale of zero. Check the projector's GUI for a status readout and confirm the capacitor has charge.

Add an 
Anti-Spawn Module to your projector so the field blocks natural mob spawning inside its volume. Combine it with an 
Anti-Hostile Module if you also want to keep hostile mobs from walking through.

Install a 
Biometric Identifier, register players with Identification Cards, and add an 
Anti-Personnel Module to the projector. Players without a registered card will be blocked or pushed out depending on your module setup.

Use the 
Camouflage Module along with a 
Block Alter Module and 
Block Access Module to make the field render as a chosen block. You can also use the 
Disintegration Module to make it fully invisible if you want a hidden barrier.

Sphere, Cube, Cylinder, Pyramid, and Dome are preset shapes you can scale and rotate with the Scale and Rotation Modules. 
Custom Mode lets you define your own shape using the 
Focus Matrix, and 
Field Fusion Module lets you merge multiple projectors into one field.

Add a 
Rotation Module to change the field's orientation and a 
Scale Module to change its size, then adjust the values in the projector's GUI. Both modules stack with the shape modes, so you can have a rotated, scaled dome or cube.

Remove or disable damage-dealing modules like 
Shock Module, Coercion Deriver effects, or 
Confiscation Module if they're active. The 
Interdiction Matrix can also apply effects to entities inside the field, so check its configuration.

Large or heavily-moduled fields can cost server ticks, especially with Camouflage, Collection, or Interdiction Matrix modules active. Keep field volumes reasonable, avoid stacking many projectors in one chunk, and disable modules you aren't actively using.
