Description

Automate your resource gathering with passive generation — even while you're offline!
Place a generator, walk away, and come back to full storages. Perfect for Skyblock, survival, or any world where you want steady resource income without constant mining or chopping. Generators run on real-world time, so they keep producing whether you're online, offline, or the world is closed.
📦 Features
✅ Unique Generators
✅ Offline Generation Resources keep generating when you're not playing. Uses real-world time to produce items, so play however you like — the generators never stop.
✅ Smart Withdrawal System
- Left-click: withdraw 1 item
- Shift-click: withdraw up to a full stack (64)
- Withdrawals drain the accumulated buffer, and sub-cycle progress is never lost.
✅ Animated Models Each generator is a unique animated visual entity.
✅ HUD Readout Look at a generator to see its glyph, name, current amount / capacity, and progress % on the action bar.
✅ Storage Caps Generators buffer 64–1024 items depending on the type (see the data tables below).
✅ Balanced Progression Tuned for vanilla worlds and compatible with modpacks.
✅ Supported Languages
- English
- Español
⚙️ How It Works
- Craft a generator (recipes below)
- Place it in your world
- Wait — it produces automatically on real-world time
- Collect — left-click for 1, shift-click for a stack
Generators keep producing even when you log off!
🪨 Mineral Generators (11)


Each mineral generator uses glass on the corners, a themed material, and the resource's block in the center.
🌳 Wood Log Generators (9)


All 9 share the same pattern — glass corners, bone meal, that wood's sapling (×3) and its log in the center. Mangrove uses a Propagule instead of a sapling.
🧱 Stone & Construction Generators (12)


🎨 Color Generators (16) — v1.3.0


🌿 Nature Generators (8) — NEW in v1.4.0

⚠️ Important Notes
Compatible with:
- ✅ Achievements (v1.2.1+), the add-on does NOT disable achievements (older version does disable, be careful). Your world must still qualify on its own
- ✅ Vibrant Visuals & PBR packs (v1.2.0+), enabling the add-on does not turn off Vibrant Visuals or PBR packs on your world
- ✅ Stable Minecraft 1.21.130+, no experimental features required
- ✅ Compatible with Hoppers & Automatizations, extract from all block faces
Not compatible with:
- ❌ Redstone — no redstone control/automation
- ❌ Pistons — cannot be pushed/moved
- ❌ Comparators — no comparator output
This is a standalone generator system focused on simple, reliable passive production.
📋 Requirements
- Minecraft 1.21.1 or 26.2 — NeoForge or Fabric
- Architectury API (required on both loaders)
- Cloth Config (required on both loaders)
- Fabric API (required on Fabric; not needed on NeoForge)
- ModMenu (optional on Fabric — enables the in-game config screen)
- Required on client and server
Optional: Jade — adds a look-at tooltip with the generator's buffer status.
Also available for Minecraft Bedrock
A Bedrock Edition version of Idle Generators is available as a behavior-pack add-on on CurseForge.
🗓️ Updates
- v1.4.0 — Nature: 8 nature generators (amethyst, honeycomb, glow lichen, moss, spore blossom, big dripleaf, flowering azalea, resin) — 56 total, 54 on 1.21.1
- v1.3.0 — Automation & Colors: hopper/pipe output, generator toggles, 16 dye generators
- v1.2.0 — Stone & Construction: 12 stone & construction generators, new recipe layout
