    About

    ByteBuddies adds mechanical helpers that take on farming, mining, item transport, and combat-protection tasks. Assign a role by giving a Buddy a designated item: Farmers tend nearby crops and can till soil with a hoe, Miners dig for resources around their Docking Station or follow a defined area using a Clipboard, Haulers move items between inventories, and Fighters follow and protect you with configurable aggression. A powered Docking Station acts as the Buddies’ dispatcher and storage hub; linked Buddies synchronize tasks, preventing them from competing for the same work, and farming and mining require a linked station. Customize Buddies with screen colors, chassis materials, and faces, and upgrade them with three tiers of floppy disks in eight colors: black reduces tool wear and improves durability, blue expands range, cyan can create a temporary parallel-working hologram, green reduces power and applicable consumable use, pink supports nearby allies, purple improves yields, red trades greater power and speed for higher energy use, and yellow can produce task-related byproducts. Batteries power both Buddies and Docking Stations, with five capacity tiers, and can be recharged by a Generator or Solar Panel. Augments expand storage, durability, movement, and other capabilities: plating boosts armor at a movement cost, storage cells add inventory slots, and examples include the Propeller Unit for low-altitude flight, the Aqua Motor for underwater movement, Solar Array for daylight charging, Arc Welder for repairs while idle, and Magnetic Crescent for picking up nearby items.

    Written from CurseForge . How we write it

    In-game changes

    Changes the game's code in 1 area: Inventory and itemsChanges 1 game code file in this area: items, chests and other containers, crafting and enchanting..

    Adds 11 blocks, 67 items, 1 entity and 65 recipes.

    Counted from the names and data files in the mod, so the list may not be complete.

    Keeps all of vanilla Minecraft's textures, models and sounds.

    Security

    No harmful code found

    We checked its files and read their code, without running it.

    What it can do on your computer

    Creates settings files
    The mod keeps its settings in the config folder of your game, where you can change or delete them. Only in its files for NeoForge 1.21.1.

    Why we show this: a mod runs on your computer like any program, so harmful code in it can take your accounts or files. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: malware means no grade, and a Warning in a latest file for a recent Minecraft version lowers it.

    How we checked · Both latest files checked, last on 16 Oct 2026
    • FilesWe download the files from Modrinth or CurseForge and look at what is inside them and what their code can do, without running them. Fixed rules tell what is harmful.
      2 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. Both are for recent versions. Recent versions: those released in the last 2 years, plus 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, among the most played in modpacks. See each file in Releases
    • Their codeWe turn the code of the files back into readable code and follow what it does, without running it. This shows what it downloads, what it sends and where your login goes.
      Read without running it
    • Looked for, not foundWe looked for these in the file and did not find them.
      The internet, folders outside the game, other programs, updating itself, the webcam or microphone, an AI service.

    Privacy

    We found nothing it sends

    We read its code without running it: it contacts no web address while you play.

    Why we show this: a mod can send things about you over the internet, like your player name or your login. Contacting an address to check for updates or download files sends nothing about you. Not in the grade: sending data can be normal for what a mod does.

    How we checked · Both files read
    • Files readWe read the code without running it. We list each web address the code contacts while you play, and what it sends. Code that is never used is left out.
      The code of both files, for recent Minecraft versions. See each file in Releases

    AI

    No sign so far that AI was used to make it

    We looked for AI tools in its texts, files and images and found none.

    We have not read its code history yet.

    No sign of AI in the game

    We found no AI service, AI library or AI model file in its code.

    Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI, and AI in the game can send what you write to an online service. Not in the grade: using AI does not tell whether a project works well or is kept up to date.
