In plain English

This repository presents a Minecraft mod called Create Aeronautics, described as an addon for the popular Create mod. The Create mod is a widely known Minecraft modification that adds mechanical contraptions, gears, and automation systems to the game. This addon claims to extend Create with a physics engine called Sable, which would allow players to build vehicles and aircraft that behave according to simulated physical forces rather than simple scripted movement. According to the README, the mod supports airships, planes, drones, ground vehicles, and other contraptions that can be controlled with redstone and used in multiplayer. It targets Minecraft versions 1.21.1 and 1.20.1 running on the NeoForge or Forge mod loaders. Installation requires placing a .jar file in your Minecraft mods folder alongside both the Create mod and the Sable physics engine. The troubleshooting section mentions checking that both Create and Sable are installed if the mod does not load, adjusting render distance for performance, and verifying that all players on a multiplayer server have the same mod versions installed. The README itself is sparse and reads largely as a list of search keywords rather than technical documentation. There is no description of how the physics system works, what building tools are provided, or what distinguishes this from other vehicle mods. The project does not appear to be affiliated with any known Create addon community project of the same name, and the README does not link to a Modrinth or CurseForge page despite listing those platforms in its description.
