Iron Tanks Community Edition

Unofficial community-maintained port of Iron Tanks for BuildCraft Community Edition, originally developed by Memesis414 for BCCE.

Supported versions

• Minecraft 1.19.2 — Forge
• Minecraft 1.20.1 — Forge
• Minecraft 1.21.1 — NeoForge
• Minecraft 1.21.11 — NeoForge

The addon registers its BuildCraft Guide Book content through buildcraft.api.v2 and uses loader-native fluid capabilities for platform integration.

Multi-version build architecture

ITCE mirrors BCCE's current build/source architecture:

• legacy build generation — 1.19.2 Forge and 1.20.1 Forge;
• modern build generation — 1.21.1 and 1.21.11 NeoForge, with 1.21.11 as the active modern target.

Each generation has an independent Gradle wrapper, Stonecutter controller and target matrix under builds/legacy or builds/modern.

Targets are assembled from layered source roots:

source-shared
+ source-families/<generation>
+ source-platforms/<loader>
+ version-src/<target>

This keeps common Iron Tanks gameplay in one place while isolating loader registration/capability code and Minecraft-generation differences. See SOURCE_FAMILIES.md for the full layout and build commands.

Building

BCCE 8.0.21 is resolved directly from Modrinth Maven. No local BuildCraft jars are required.

./build-all.sh

Or build one generation directly:

cd builds/legacy
./gradlew buildAndCollect

cd builds/modern
./gradlew buildAndCollect

Each target pins the matching BCCE artifact (8.0.21+<minecraft>+<loader>) so Forge and NeoForge builds cannot accidentally resolve a jar for another Minecraft version.
