Using Create: Kontor you can found a company to sell your items on a simulated market. You will need to produce items using the Create Mod (or any other mod) and buy a license for your products to start receiving requests for these items. Accept a request and you will need to produce the requested items. The price you set determines how many requests you will get. By hiring employees, you will be able to get access to more features and information about your business!

Create: Kontor simulates a market for many different items. Markets have changing prices and changing demand. The economic situation in your world also affects markets: A recession might be harder time for your business than a upswing.

> 2️⃣ | Hire a lawyer

Craft a Lawyer's Desk and sit down a villager next to it. Right click the villager to open the lawyer UI. Buy a license for your first product(s) in the License Catalog.

> 3️⃣ | Participate in a market

With your new license, you are able to participate in the markets of the bought license. Right click the Kontor Desk and participate in one market using the Market tab. Set a price and you will start receiving requests for that product.

> 4️⃣ | Your first request

Once you participate in a market, you will receive requests for that product. View and accept them in the Requests and Orders tab of the Kontor Desk. An accepted request will turn into an order, that you will need to fulfill in time, so start producing the required items to fulfill your first order!

> 5️⃣ | Delivering your first order

Craft a Shipping Exit and place it down next any inventory (e.g. a chest). When powered, the Shipping Exit will try to fulfill any order it can using items from its adjacent inventories.

> 🚨 | Updating to new versions

ALWAYS create a backup before updating Create: Kontor. This mod has a lot of save data. Changing versions might break this save data and therefore your economy / companies. Altough we try our best to not break existing worlds with updates, we do not take responsibility for any damage that might happen when updating Create: Kontor. You can use a backup mod like Simple Backups to automatically create backups of your world.

> ⚙️ | Config Files

Most constant values are configurable through the config files. Note that changes are only applied after restarting or leaving / rejoining the world. /reload is not enough. Be careful when changing the default settings and always make backups!

> 📦 | Datapacks

Most of the data that Create: Kontor uses to simulate the economy is configurable / expandable through data packs. This includes:

• Raw Materials
• Markets
• Market Group Definitions
• Licenses
• Legal Forms
• Process Costs

Be careful when changing datapacks in an existing world. Always make backups before changing anything.

See the wiki for more detailed info on how to create custom datapacks for Create: Kontor.

Why is this mod a Create Addon?

Create: Kontor only really makes sense when you have the ability to build a factory and automate item production. Create is therefore the best Fit for Create: Kontor because it offers wide automation capabilites and a full logistics system, that is heavily integrated into Create: Kontor. Additionally, Create has a huge addon ecosystem.
The core of Create: Kontor, which simulates the economy, is fully independent of Minecraft and Create. While not planned (!), it would be possible to extract this core and integrate it into other minecraft mods.

How performant is Create: Kontor?

Answer

Which versions does / will Create: Kontor support?

Create: Kontor will always support the newest Create Version. Backporting and ports to other modloaders are not planned.

Can I use Create: Kontor in Singleplayer?

Yes! Create: Kontor is not a mod specifically SMPs or trading in multiplayer. Instead it fully simulates an economy and is equally playable in single- and multiplayer.

Can I use Create: Kontor on SMPs?

Yes, Create: Kontor has full multiplayer support. But depending on the size and expected player number of your SMP, we encourage you to rebalance Create: Kontor for your server using the Config Files and Datapacks. A server with 5 active players will probably need a different balancing to keep the economy stable and playable than a server with 200 active players.

Can I use Create: Kontor in modpacks?

Yes you can! See the wiki on how to configure Create: Kontor and add support for other mods.

Has AI been used in development?

Developing a mod of this size is hard and time consuming. We want to be fully transparent and honest about our AI usage. AI can be a powerful tool and accelerate development, but we think it should never be used as anything more than a development assistance. Here is an overview of our AI usage during development:

What AI has NOT been used for:

• Implementing entire features (e.g. using prompts like "Implement feature XY")
• Designing or developing ideas
• Creating art (e.g. textures)
• Generating any other kind of content in the mod (e.g. texts, tooltips, mechanics)

What AI has been used for:

• Writing unit tests
• Generating example values for testing
• Research (technical and content-related research)
• Translation (only singular words / phrases, never using prompts like "Translate this .json file")

All AI generated code has been marked with a comment saying, that the code is AI generated. If you have any questions or opinions about our AI usage, please let us know!

If you find a bug or have a suggestion, please create a GitHub Issue here.
