Create: Dragons Plus: Smarter Fan Processing for Your Create Workshop
If you already spend your evenings wiring shafts, stress units, and clever contraptions, you know Create shines when bulk operations feel as satisfying as hand-crafting. Create: Dragons Plus is an addon that leans into that rhythm: it adds practical fan-driven bulk steps, a fluid-friendly hatch, and hooks for other Create extensions, while still leaving room for pack authors to tune everything.
What Create: Dragons Plus Actually Adds
At its heart, this mod is a toolkit for players who want fewer micro-clicks and more throughput, plus quality-of-life pieces that mirror how Create already thinks about items and fluids. You still craft, route, and automate the Create way; the addon simply widens the menu of things an Encased Fan can do when paired with the right blocks and fluids.
- Bulk Coloring: Run Dye Fluids through fan processing to tint items in bulk, covering most crafting recipes that normally need dyes.
- Bulk Freezing: Use Powder Snow with the fan to freeze items efficiently instead of repeating tiny recipe loops.
- Bulk Ending: Channel The End’s vibe with a Dragon Head or Dragon’s Breath as a fluid, using the fan to infuse items with that dimensional energy.
- Bulk Sanding: Polish items using Quicksand in the fan setup, aligning with Sand Paper polishing recipes across the board.
- Fluid Hatch: A fluid counterpart to the Item Hatch, making it easier to deposit into and withdraw from fluid tanks without awkward pipe gymnastics.
Bulk Sanding After 1.8.5: Tags Matter More Than One Block
Older versions leaned heavily on Quicksand as the trigger for Bulk Sanding, but after 1.8.5 the behavior follows the mod’s block tag logic. If the Bulk Sanding block tag includes any valid block, the feature activates, which means pack makers can standardize polishing lines without forcing everyone to hunt down Quicksand first. That is a small change on paper, but in survival it saves base redesigns when biomes or worldgen do not cooperate.
Playing Nice With Other Create Addons
Create ecosystems live or die on interoperability, and Dragons Plus is built with that in mind. Bulk Coloring and Bulk Freezing support Create: Granished fan processing recipes where those packs include them, while Bulk Ending, Bulk Sanding, and Bulk Freezing also line up with Create: Dreams & Desires fan processing when present. Industrial Fan support is included too, so you are not stuck choosing between “industrial scale” and “dragons-and-dyes flavor” if your mod list stacks both.
Most features can be toggled on or off in configuration, which helps servers keep performance predictable and helps modpack authors ship a curated experience. Dependent mods can still override those switches when they need a hard guarantee for progression gating, so read your pack notes if a recipe suddenly behaves differently than single-player.
Install Flow, Versions, and Why Launchers Help
Before you drop it into a world, match the mod file to your Minecraft version and your Create build, then confirm any companion addons are on compatible releases. If you are juggling several Create extensions, a launcher that keeps profiles tidy saves real time. For example, this mod can be installed smoothly through the foxygame.net launcher, a flexible modern Minecraft launcher that lets you grab mods straight from the menu without hopping between sites. That kind of workflow matters when you are iterating a modpack or swapping branches for multiplayer testing.
For Modpack Authors and Server Admins
If you script quests, gate chapters, or rebalance recipes, treat Dragons Plus like any other automation multiplier: document which bulk routes you enable, note tag-driven sanding for worlds that lack vanilla-like terrain, and verify cross-mod fan recipes do not create infinite loops with duplicated outputs. The Fluid Hatch alone can simplify tank farms, breweries, and fuel buffers on shared servers where players expect intuitive access without breaking protection plugins.
Conclusion
Create: Dragons Plus does not replace the fantasy of tinkering; it rewards it with broader fan mechanics, clearer fluid handling, and thoughtful compatibility across popular Create addons. Whether you are coloring stacks of building blocks, freezing ingredients for themed kitchens, channeling End energy into niche crafts, or polishing components for precision builds, the mod keeps the focus on mechanical creativity while staying configurable for packs, servers, and future updates.
