Raft Ocean 0.13.0 preview expands support for addon developers with API v3 and a standalone starter SDK.

Highlights

  • Connect addon machines to power, fresh-water and biofuel networks, including wide and rotated footprints.
  • Preflight and commit item/resource batches without spending supplies when outputs are blocked.
  • Request generator power when a machine is ready and opt into output-only quick collection with extraction locks.
  • Fixed generic addon menu shift-click merges bypassing insertion rules.
  • Added the sediment washer example, full API guides, and independently buildable SDK.
  • Existing v1/v2 API methods and saved IDs are retained. The story stays open-ended.

Requirements and installation

Minecraft Java 26.3, NeoForge 26.3.0.48-beta, and Java 25.

Install raft_ocean-0.13.0.jar in the client and server mods folders. All multiplayer peers must update together. Back up existing worlds before updating. Optional development JEI version: 31.9.0.58.

  • raft_ocean-0.13.0.zip: mod plus installation instructions, documentation and example addon source.
  • raft-addon-sdk-0.13.0.zip: standalone addon starter with Gradle wrapper, API dependency, sources, examples and documentation.
  • raft_ocean-0.13.0-sources.jar: development sources; do not install as a mod.
  • SHA256SUMS.txt: checksums for the four main downloads.

Verification and remaining testing

The existing local verification run passed the build and server boot with the example addon loaded: 69 API and 13 example assertions, plus movement, collision, construction, crafting, survival and other server suites. The final SDK archive was freshly extracted and built with its own wrapper. Package checksums, ZIP integrity, manifest hashes and all 172 Java source files were checked again before publication.

This is a preview. Live client rendering, large rafts, multiplayer latency and third-party addon combinations still need playtesting. World/story checks are carried forward from 0.12.4; this update does not change world generation. See RELEASE_VERIFICATION.md and KNOWN_ISSUES.md in the release bundle for details.
