World Surface Integration

World Surface Integration

Preserves the Steam & Steel surface-rule integration with Lithostitched, TerraBlender, Luminous Nether, Biolith and Vanilla Backport.

Features

Lithostitched surface application and the additional Luminous startup injection are suppressed. Nether-specific TerraBlender and Biolith rules are guarded; this is an intentional pack integration, not a general world-generation bugfix.

Usage

Install this release alongside its listed dependencies. Use it in the Steam & Steel integration stack or a setup providing the same dependencies and configuration. Installation side: both. Multiplayer setups must use compatible server and client modules where applicable.

This release separates the implementation shipped inside Companion 0.1.3-beta. Its mod ID remains server_mechanics and its internal version remains 0.1.3-beta. Do not install it together with the full Companion or another copy of the same module. Existing registry, saved-data and network identifiers are preserved.

Compatibility

• Minecraft 1.21.1; Java 21.
• Minecraft: [1.21.1]; required; both.
• NeoForge: [21.1.235,); required; both.
• Lithostitched: [1.7.13]; required; both.
• TerraBlender: [4.1.0.8]; required; both.
• Luminous Nether: [1.3.3]; required; both.
• Biolith: [3.0.10,3.0.11); required; both.
• Vanilla Backport: [1.1.7.10]; required; both.

Version ranges and dependency sides above are the original module declarations, preserved without broadening compatibility. Later upstream implementations and arbitrary modpack combinations are not claimed tested. Server-specific configuration is not bundled as a replacement for the Steam & Steel modpack.

From Steam & Steel

This component originated in Steam & Steel SMP, our custom Minecraft 1.21.1 NeoForge industrial survival server pack. It is packaged independently of the full Companion while retaining its required integrations. Original third-party mods are installed separately.

Beta / Feedback

This is a beta publication. The implementation is preserved from the submitted Companion package. Local checks compare implementation classes, gameplay resources, dependencies and persistent identifiers. A separate full-game launch, player join and standalone gameplay verification have not been performed for this packaging.

If you encounter a crash, an error or unexpected behaviour, leave a comment with this module version, Minecraft, NeoForge and dependency versions, and steps to reproduce the problem. Remove private information from any attached logs. We will investigate reported bugs and work on fixes.
