AetherGrid

AetherGrid

AetherGrid gives every player a floating grid of tiles in a clean void world. Each tile can run one module: place a Module Core Block on an empty tile and it starts producing crops, ores, mob loot or fluids straight into its own output chest.

Modules work together. A Crop Generator next to a Hydro Pump grows 50% faster, an Ore Quarry next to a Magma Forge finds more rare ores, and Energy Generators make the Grid Power that high-tier modules need. The Transmutator eats the surplus from nearly full chests and turns it into Grid Essence, a special currency for the best upgrades. A Sentry Turret keeps your grid free of hostile mobs without ever hurting players.

Every module gets a spinning, glowing crystal with a live status label above it. Standing on a tile shows its level, synergy boost and your grid power in the action bar. Everything is managed from one GUI: /grid opens statistics, a map of your grid, upgrades, the module store and co-op settings.

AetherGrid is built for performance. Timers, loot rolls, synergies and animations run on an async thread, and the main thread only does small, time-capped batches. Data is stored in SQLite or MySQL through HikariCP. All 12 modules, prices, synergies and messages are fully configurable in modules.yml and config.yml.
