Add Smooth Sliding and Rotating Functionality with the UGOCraft Mod (1.2.5)
The UGOCraft mod is a Japanese Minecraft mod that roughly translates to MotionCraft. This is the best mod that I have seen since the Piston mod. It adds blocks that change the way that objects in the game are able to move. Structures are able to smoothly slide and rotate in every direction. This makes structures that were previously impossible to build easy to make. Some simple examples of structures that can be built include trains, drawbridges, windmills, elevators, and much more!
Usage:
Each block will move blocks that are connected to it. They can be activated by placing a lever/button on it or activating it with redstone. Blocks that are moved can hold items, but do not work well with water or lava.
