About
Automaton is a focused questing modpack built around factory construction and automation with large multiblock machines, with more than 200 quests guiding players through its progression. Players begin with Furnus for ore doubling, then advance into Immersive Engineering and, after obtaining steel, expand power generation with Immersive Petroleum and Immersive Tech. With factory infrastructure established, Applied Energistics 2 supports resource organization and automation, while Mekanism adds compact machinery, resource processing of up to five times the ores, and a Fusion Reactor for large-scale power. The pack also includes Environmental Tech void miners and solar arrays, airships from Viescraft for exploration, Waystones for travel, and Roguelike Dungeons for challenging expeditions. Building and decorating factories is supported by Chisel, Chisels and Bits, Platforms, Blockcraftery, and Inspirations.

Security
No harmful code found in its mods
We checked all 94 mods and the files in the pack itself, without running them.
Why we show this: a modpack installs the files of its mods, and each mod runs on your computer like any program. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: a modpack has no grade of its own, and each mod's result counts in that mod's grade.
How we checked
- Its projects94 mods
- Files in the pack itself263 settings files, 8 scripts, 5 other files, no mod jars.
Privacy
4 mods send something about you
We read the code of all 94 of its mods, without running it.
Why we show this: a modpack runs the code of its mods, and 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
- Go online onlyTheir code contacts a web address, for example to check for updates. We found nothing it sends about you.7 mods
- Send nothingTheir code contacts no web address.83 mods
AI
No sign that AI was used to make its mods
We found no AI use from before this release (23 Mar 2019) in the 40 mods we checked.
5 mods show AI use only from after it, so it does not apply to the versions in this pack.
54 mods are not checked yet.
No sign so far that AI was used to make the pack itself
We looked for AI tools in its texts and found none.
We have not read its files and images yet.
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.
How we checked
- Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when a substantial part of the code is AI output, when an asset is mainly AI output, or when the project or its page relies on generative AI.Not on Modrinth.
- Description and changelogsThe description, project page and newest changelogs: sentences saying an AI tool was used, and text pasted from an AI chat.Nothing found2 of 24 changelogs read
