Introduction

Welcome to the ProjectE Plugin! This is an Equivalent Exchange plugin designed for Minecraft Spigot/Paper servers, inspired by the famous ProjectE mod.

What is ProjectE?

ProjectE is a plugin based on the concept of equivalent exchange, introducing a core matter transmutation system. Players can break down items into Energy-Matter Covalence (EMC) units and use this EMC to create new items.

Core Concepts

EMC (Energy-Matter Covalence)

EMC is the core currency of the ProjectE system. Each item has its corresponding EMC value, which represents the "energy value" of that item.

  • Learning Items: Players need to "learn" an item before they can create it in the Transmutation Table
  • Converting Items: By consuming EMC, players can convert learned items to each other
  • Storing EMC: Use tools like Klein Stars to store large amounts of EMC

Transmutation Table

The Transmutation Table is one of the core devices of ProjectE. It allows players to:

  • View learned items
  • Create items using EMC
  • Learn new items

Energy Collector

Energy Collectors automatically collect energy from sunlight to charge Klein Stars. There are three tiers:

  • MK1: Basic collector
  • MK2: Intermediate collector
  • MK3: Advanced collector
