AeroEngine

# AeroEngine / Aero Engineering AeroEngine is a Create-style add-on mod for NeoForge 1.21.1, focused on aero-engine systems and flight instruments. This mod allows players to assemble an aero engine in a Create-like way, with fuel supply, control logic, and thrust output, and connect it to physics systems such as Aeronautics / Sable. It also provides a Pilot Helmet HUD system for real-time flight monitoring. The project is still in development. Blocks, textures, models, recipes, Ponder tutorials, and gameplay mechanics may be adjusted in future versions.!(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/4fc407c6c18ddf4f2ee5e0a663ba1cdbbbc6d7a4_0.webp) (https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1ZrE86hEBW/?spm_id_from=333.1387.0.0&vd_source=1d222e3d8b177728228bcd488c336730) ## Features / Features * Modular aero-engine structure / Modular aero-engine structure * Basic, afterburning and vectoring turbofan engines / Basic, afterburning and vectoring turbofan engines * Liquid fuel based operation / Liquid fuel based operation (Aviation Kerosene) * Redstone-controlled power and afterburner / Redstone-controlled power and afterburner * Create-style multiblock assembly / Create-style multiblock assembly * Pilot Helmet HUD system / Pilot Helmet HUD system * Coordinate navigation and waypoints / Coordinate navigation and waypoints * Ponder tutorial support / Ponder tutorial support * Integration with Aeronautics / Sable / Integration with Aeronautics / Sable ## Engine Components / Engine Components ### Core Blocks / Core Blocks * Engine Fan--- Engine Fan--- Air intake and engine inlet * Engine Compressor--- Engine Compressor--- Compresses incoming air * Engine Combustor--- Engine Combustor--- Burns aviation kerosene and uses redstone to control power * Engine Turbine---Engine Turbine--- Drives the compressor * Engine Exhaust Cone--- Engine Exhaust Cone--- Basic turbofan tail section with reverse thrust support * Engine Afterburner--- Engine Afterburner--- Afterburning turbofan tail section with redstone-controlled afterburner mode * Vector Bearing--- Vector Bearing--- Vector thrust control ### Casing & Nozzle / Casing & Nozzle * Engine Casing--- Engine Casing--- Encloses the engine core and improves thrust * Engine Exhaust Nozzle--- Engine Exhaust Nozzle--- Installed at the rear of the engine for additional thrust * Copycat Engine Casing--- Copycat Engine Casing--- Customizable engine casing appearance, including stairs/slabs * Copycat Engine Nozzle--- Copycat Engine Nozzle--- Customizable nozzle appearance, including stairs/slabs ### Transmission / Transmission * Engine Encased Fluid Pipe--- Engine Encased Fluid Pipe--- Fluid pipe enclosed in engine casing * Engine Encased Shaft--- Engine Encased Shaft--- Shaft enclosed in engine casing * Engine Gearbox--- Engine Gearbox--- Power transmission and direction conversion ## Engine Structures / Engine Structures * Basic Turbofan / Basic Turbofan Engine ``` Engine Fan → Engine Compressor → Engine Combustor → Engine Turbine → Engine Exhaust Cone ``` * Afterburning Turbofan / Afterburning Turbofan Engine ``` Engine Fan → Engine Compressor → Engine Combustor → Engine Turbine → Engine Afterburner ``` * Vectoring Turbofan / Vectoring Turbofan Engine ``` Engine Fan → Engine Compressor → Engine Combustor → Engine Turbine → Vector Bearing ``` ## Fuel and Control / Fuel and Control ### Aviation Kerosene / Aviation Kerosene Engines use Aviation Kerosene as fuel, which is supplied to the Engine Combustor through the Create fluid system. ### Redstone Control / Redstone Control * Engine Combustor: Shift + Right Click to configure redstone frequency and power step, controlling engine power * Engine Afterburner: Independent redstone frequency control for toggling afterburner mode * Engine Exhaust Cone: Redstone-controlled reverse thrust mode * Vector Bearing: Six-axis redstone signal control for thrust direction ## Pilot Helmet / Pilot Helmet The Pilot Helmet is a wearable HUD system used for real-time flight monitoring. ### Features * Bind up to 12 blocks to the same physical structure * Supports multiple sensor types: altitude, velocity, attitude, and navigation * Customizable HUD display content and layout * Supports renaming, hiding, and direction correction ### Sensor Types Sensor Function * Altitude Sensor (Altitude Sensor)----Altimeter * Velocity Sensor (Velocity Sensor)----Speed and heading * Gimbal Sensor (Gimbal Sensor)----Pitch and roll * Navigation Table (Navigation Table)----Waypoints and target direction ### Usage 1.
