At a glance

A switchable block family that reduces area Magicules while enabled; crafted around a High Quality Magic Crystal and Pure Magisteel.

Verified 1.21.1 behavior

The pinned MagicEngineBlock implementation toggles an area-Magicule reduction modifier when used. It is functional, not just decoration. The tracked configuration sets a 1,000 area-Magicule reduction and 16-block range for ordinary engines. This is area Magicules, not a direct deduction from a player's MP.

Values come from the tracked area configuration and Tensura 2.0.1.2's MagicEngineBlock and MagicEngineHelper. Mob-spawn suppression depends on the resulting area level and spawn threshold; it is not a blanket guarantee of safety. These are artifact/configuration checks, not a live-server test.

Usage

To activate, you need to right click the magic engine to work.

While active will reduce the surrounding area's Magicule by 1000 in a 16 block radius, which makes it 32x32x32 area of lower magicule level.
(Configurable)

Mobs will not spawn in that if the area magicule level is under 10 (configurable).
Higher Magicule areas will require more Magic Engine at once to stop monsters from spawning.


Mobs also will not target enemies if they are in an area that has under 10 magicule, unless already aggroed, attacked or already inside the lowered area.

This lower Magicule level will also affect the players/mobs magicule regeneration (since the default rate is area magicule / 100 per 10 ticks).

How to see/visualise the range

A person showing the area of effect

Toggling the hitboxes for creatures (F3), shows the area of effect of a magic engine. You do not need an addon for this feature.
