CommonCapabilities in FTB Skies 2

Same as in the All the Mods 10 2.12 guide

CommonCapabilities is part of the pack as version 2.9.7, shipped as the NeoForge 1.21.1 build. It has been in the pack since version 0.32 or earlier, so it's a long-standing part of the mod list rather than a recent addition.^[1]

Unverified The available data doesn't describe what CommonCapabilities does, and there's no guidebook or platform description to confirm it. I can't tell you who it's for or what it adds to your gameplay. As far as the data shows, no quests in this pack involve the mod, and it isn't on the ATM Star path, so you don't need to plan your progression around it.

I don't have a confirmed set of first steps for CommonCapabilities in this pack, so I'm keeping this section short instead of guessing.^[2]

The one thing the mod's own language file confirms is that it has a configuration screen, whose title is built from the pattern "%s configuration".^[2]

Unverified No in-pack recipes, quests or config options for CommonCapabilities were available to me, so I can't say which items to make first or in what order.

The only thing the available material for CommonCapabilities shows is its language file, and that contains a single string: the title of a configuration screen, written as "%s configuration". That is not enough to explain how the mod handles machines, multiblocks, power, fluids or items.^[2]

Unverified How CommonCapabilities handles power, fluid and item transfer, and whether it adds any machines, multiblocks or automation features of its own, could not be confirmed from the sources available for this pack.

CommonCapabilities has a small config, and everything lives in one file: config/commoncapabilities-common.toml. Here is exactly how the pack sets it.^[3]

Equality filter for item data

The option most likely to matter to you is machine.general.ignoreDataComponentsForEqualityFilters. It lists the data component types that get filtered away when the mod checks items for equality. The pack sets it to a single entry, integrateddynamics:energy, so that component is ignored in those comparisons.^[3]

Crash and debug options

• core.general.crashOnInvalidRecipe is false in the pack, so the recipe loader does not crash when it finds an invalid recipe.^[3]
• core.general.crashOnModCompatCrash is false, so errors in the mod compatibility loader do not crash the game hard.^[3]
• core.general.debugLogUnequalItemDataComponents is false. The config comment warns that turning it on causes lag and that you should only enable it if you know what you are doing. It logs checks where equal items have unequal data components.^[3]

Analytics and version checking

• core.general.analytics is true in the pack. That means an anonymous mod startup analytics request may be sent to the mod's analytics service.^[3]
• core.general.versionChecker is false, so the version checker is disabled.^[3]
