Currently in the game, Jonas devices are cool-looking, very hard to create and almost utterly useless. This mod attempts to make these machines a little bit more powerful, to compensate for the cumbersome crafting process.

- Requires temporal gear to recharge
- Actively destroys rifts in 64 blocks radius
- Restores temporal stability in 64 block radius
