The original goal of this mod was simply to add configuration options for making Create's contraption-making more complex and mechanically engaging. Since then, I've also added bits of original content to it, especially to support an upcoming modpack.

Configuration:

• Blacklist Create contraption actors, preventing selected blocks from functioning on contraptions.
• Configure if the Mechanical Saw can multibreak whole trees at once.
• Overhaul the Drill and Saw actors to both function like a Drill, but with their own pickaxe+shovel/axe+hoe specialties for mine speed.
• Configure the displayed recipe catalyst of Fan Processing categories in recipe viewers (i.e. changing the water/lava/fire/soul-fire to a different block)

Misc:

• Ports automatic train (dis)assembly from Steam 'n' Rails, via a Deployer wrenching the Train Station block (disabled if installed alongside)
• New recipe type: Precision Assembly; a Mechanical Arm will process the input item as it passes by on an adjacent targeted belt. Supports Sequenced Assembly. Can require an empty arm, or require a held item.
• Lecterns on a contraption can be interacted with to place down a Linked Controller, or pick it back up

New Content:

• New Linked Controller variants: a Linked Remote with one instantly-pressable button, a Linked Keypad with the number keys 1-9, and a Linked Macro Controller with 8 additional buttons.
• Control Seat: when sitting in it, looking around will emit redstone signals in each direction, corresponding to the pitch and yaw.
• Industrial Fan: an oversized variant of the Encased Fan, without the casing. Effects a 3x3 column of air.
• Fluid Barrel: a variant of the Fluid Tank with an open top and the ability to manually bucket fluids in and out, but has reduced capacity and can't store gases or superheated liquids.
• Gramophone: a variant of the Jukebox which requires rotational power, which can play music discs at different speeds.
• Hinge Bearing: a variant of the Mechanical Bearing which doesn't take any rotation input, the player can interact with its contraption to manually push it open or pull it shut.
• Handles: decorative complements to the Hinge Bearing, which play an appropriate door-opening sound when used to open one.
• Glue Spreader: when powered by redstone, blocks in front of adjacent Glue Spreaders are glued together.
• Encapsulator: when powered by redstone, connected blocks in front of the Encapsulator are stored into a placeable Capsule item.

New Generators:

• Haunted Cogwheel: a small cogwheel that spins on its own, but randomly changes speed and will break if it isn't in sole control of its network.
• Breeze Whirler: has the size and connectivity of a large cogwheel, spun by a captured Breeze.
• Clockwork Motor: after time is spent winding it up with a Hand Crank or Wind-Up Key (or any other source), it will temporarily produce rotation while it spins back down.
