Architect

Architect is a gradle plugin to allow easier multi-modloader set-ups using a common module.

Examples

• Hardcore Questing Mode
• Light Overlay

Important Information

• This will only function with mojmap, also known as mojang mappings, as the MCP remapping is half-baked and will only remap classes.
• Environment and EnvType are remapped to OnlyIn and Dist.
• No mixins in the common module.
• You MUST run gradlew build or gradlew :common:build to update the MCP remapped version of common, or else the version of common module that the forge module is using will not update.

Implementing Platform Specific APIs

How does it work

Fabric Side:

• Module fabric depends on common, which is shaded afterwards

Forge Side:

• Module forge depends on MCP remapped version of common, which is shaded afterwards
• A fake mod is generated, to let forge load it on the correct mod loader and let forge load its assets

Usage

Your gradle version MUST be 5.5.1, all assets or data should go into the common module, with modloader specific files to their corresponding modules.
