A NeoForge modpack combining Create and MineColonies. No more meaningless factory building and resource hoarding. The main focus you have now is to sustain and grow an empire and provide the best quality of life for your colonists.
Main features
- Colony Survival inspired gameplay loop made possible by MineColonies
- Automation using the Create mod along with its new addon Aeronautics
- World generation which provides vast plains and flat terrain for city building, while also keeping biome diversity and featuring various obstacles to build around
- Player parties and claims for use on large servers

High-end tests were performed on an AMD Ryzen 7 5800X paired with an NVIDIA RTX 3070 and 32GB of RAM. Low-end tests were performed on an Intel Core i9-9900 paired with an NVIDIA GTX 1650 and 16GB of RAM (yes I know that is an odd combination). Please note that High-end test were performed on an older version of Aerocolonies, I will try to update them ASAP.
