Slimefun-United

Slimefun United

A modern, organised, community‑driven continuation of the Slimefun legacy — with full localisation support (WIP), active development, and compatibility with old saves.
✨ Magic, technology, automation, reactors, factories… all in one plugin.

🧪 What is Slimefun United?

Slimefun United brings together the best features from the original Slimefun and its most popular forks, combining them into a single, actively maintained project.
It offers a modded‑like experience on an unmodded Minecraft server, adding:

• ⚡ Energy networks
• 🔥 Reactors and generators
• 🏭 Automation systems
• 🧪 Magic altars and runes
• 📦 Item transport systems
• 🛠️ Hundreds of machines, tools, and gadgets
• 🌍 Full translation support
• 🔌 A huge ecosystem of addons

Compatible with worlds previously using:

• The original Slimefun 4
• Gugu Project’s fork
• Other community forks (on request)

Slimefun has existed since 2013, with 500+ items and hundreds of contributors. Slimefun United continues that legacy with modern standards, frequent updates, and a welcoming community.
