Harder Aeronautics Recipe

# Aeronautics Was Way Too **EASY** ###### So here at **Celeste Create Hell: Reforged**, we fixed it. Building an airplane should be an achievement—not something you casually assemble beside a crafting table after finding a few pieces of iron. This datapack completely rebalances the progression of **Create: Aeronautics** and its supporting **Simulated** machinery. Aircraft construction now demands proper factories, expanded resource processing, repeated mechanical assembly, and much more expensive control systems. Flight is no longer a small side project. It is now an **industrial milestone**. ## What Has Changed? ### Iron Is Valuable Again Aircraft production now consumes significantly more: - Iron Blocks - Iron Sheets - Industrial Iron Blocks - Iron Wire - Iron Nuggets - Create machinery Iron is used throughout engine production, propeller bearings, sensors, springs, portable engines, weapons, control systems, and structural components. A functioning iron factory is strongly recommended before beginning serious aircraft production. ### Airplanes Require Real Factories Many important components can no longer be made through basic crafting alone. Expect to use: - Mechanical Crafters - Mechanical Presses - Mechanical Saws - Deployers - Heated Mixers - Crushing Wheels - Spouts - Brass machinery - Fluid infrastructure - Sequenced Assembly lines Advanced aircraft will require several connected factories rather than one isolated crafting station. ### Recipes Are More Interconnected Aircraft components now depend on other manufactured components. A navigation system may require a gyroscopic mechanism. That gyroscopic mechanism requires repeated deployment of precision mechanisms, shafts, cogwheels, and brass. Those parts require their own production lines. The result is a much deeper progression chain where every major aircraft system feels engineered rather than simply crafted. ### Levitite Is Much Harder to Produce Levitite now requires End exploration, probabilistic crushing, heated mixing, zinc, water, and Ender Pearls. You can no longer obtain large quantities of it without constructing a dedicated processing facility. --- # Complete Recipe Breakdown <details> <summary><strong>Levitite and End-Stone Processing</strong></summary> ## End Stone Powder End Stone must now be processed through **Crushing Wheels**. **Input:** - 1 End Stone **Processing time:** - 250 ticks **Possible results:** - 40% chance to produce End Stone Powder - 10% chance to recover the original End Stone This means Levitite production now begins with a proper End Stone crushing facility, and every block is no longer guaranteed to produce usable powder. ## Levitite Blend Levitite Blend must be created inside a **heated Mechanical Mixer**. **Ingredients:** - 4 End Stone Powder - 2 Zinc Nuggets - 1 Ender Pearl - 500 mB of Water **Result:** - 100 units of Levitite Blend Because End Stone Powder only has a chance of being produced, large-scale Levitite manufacturing requires a steady End Stone supply and automated crushing. </details> <details> <summary><strong>Engine and Gyroscopic Assembly</strong></summary> ## Engine Assembly Engine Assemblies now require an eight-cycle **Sequenced Assembly** process. **Starting material:** - 1 Iron Sheet **Each assembly cycle performs:** 1. Cutting with a Mechanical Saw 2. Pressing with a Mechanical Press The sequence must repeat **eight times** before the component is completed. Possible failed or imperfect results include: - Iron Sheets - Iron Nuggets - Industrial Iron Blocks - Iron Bars - Iron Helmets Engine production is now designed around a repeated processing line rather than a single crafting recipe. ## Red Portable Engine The Red Portable Engine now requires a completed Engine Assembly and considerably more iron. **Ingredients:** - 1 Engine Assembly - 2 Iron Blocks - 1 Iron Sheet - 1 Blast Furnace This component is also required for the new Adjustable Burner recipe, making the engine production line relevant to multiple aircraft systems. ## Gyroscopic Mechanism Gyroscopic Mechanisms now require one of the most demanding assembly processes in the datapack. **Starting material:** - 1 Iron Sheet The sequence repeats **five times**. During every cycle, Deployers must apply: 1. 1 Cogwheel 2. 1 Precision Mechanism 3. 1 Shaft 4. 1 Brass Nugget Producing one mechanism therefore requires up to: - 5 Cogwheels - 5 Precision Mechanisms - 5 Shafts - 5 Brass Nuggets Possible failed results include: - Iron Sheets - Andesite Alloy - Brass Nuggets - Crushed Raw Iron - Compasses Gyroscopic Mechanisms are used throughout advanced propulsion, navigation, receiver, and sensor recipes. Automating their production is highly recommended. ## Adjustable Burner The Adjustable Burner is now an advanced engine-driven component. **Ingredients:** - 1 Red Portable Engine - 1 valid Burner Fire source - 2 Andesite Alloy - 4 Iron Sheets This connects burner pro
