OpenEngineering is a Cleanroom remake of Immersive Engineering to allow for continued maintenance and compatibility on 1.12.2
While Immersive Engineering is a well-loved mod, the 1.12.2 version has lingering bugs and limitations that are unlikely to be addressed.
OpenEngineering aims to recreate the core gameplay and mechanics, but this will be slow going. Currently, we have recreated 74 blocks and 8 items
