Quick Guide
The mod bases around the Defense Station which connects all components. This includes surveillance cameras and security bots.
To connect multipleso called "entities" you will need to use the Wireless Tuner:
- Shift-Right-Click on the Defense Station
- Right-Click on any other entity (e.g. Security Bot or Surveillance Camera).
A network consists at least of one Defense Station, a Surveillance Camera and one Security Bot.Please note that Security Bots will not attack unless a camera detects suspicious activity. Furthermore Security Bots will return to their original positions after a specific amount of time passed without any suspicious events.
Players which are allowed to pass the security cameras without causing the alarm to trigger can be defined at the Defense Station. To add new players their names have to be entered one by one into the input field below the user list.
Please note that users have to be online in order to add them to the list.

I don't mean to be rude by calling the content in your mod useless because it's not. It's just not my preference.

I have one really important tip for anyone carrying on the legacy of a mod in my opinion. If you are going to use features of a good mod in your own mod for MC then a little something would be absolutely great to go along with it. Along with your mod, make an updated version of this mod with nothing extra or less. Lots of people don't like mods with ore generation and if you're anything like me you search up new mods for fun to possibly add to your collection to play in your survival singleplayer but you're put off by mods with ores because you have huge areas of loaded chunks. This mod was little since it only added a few items with not a million uses, just two for each in two crafting recipes.
It could also help your popularity rather than making a mod with tons of useless armor and ores which has been done by way too many people. Also lots of people do love mods like that if they only use a couple mods that add things like that.
