CommonCapabilities in FTB Skies 2: Aero

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.

Same as in the All the Mods 10 0.50 guide

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.

Everything for CommonCapabilities lives in one file, and the pack's values for it are listed below. The first option here is core.general.analytics, and the other keys sit in the same file.^[3]

Machine filter equality

The option most likely to matter in play is machine.general.ignoreDataComponentsForEqualityFilters. It lists the data component types that are filtered away when the mod checks equality. The pack sets it to integrateddynamics:energy, so the energy data component from IntegratedDynamics is ignored in those equality checks.^[3]

Crash and logging options

• core.general.crashOnInvalidRecipe is false in the pack. This controls whether the recipe loader crashes when it finds invalid recipes.^[3]
• core.general.crashOnModCompatCrash is false in the pack. This controls whether the mod compatibility loader crashes hard if errors occur in that process.^[3]
• core.general.debugLogUnequalItemDataComponents is false in the pack. It logs checks where equal items have unequal data components.^[3]

Analytics and version checking

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