Machines and Automation
There are several machines or automation blocks in the addon right now, each of them has a special function which serves to automate different processes in your world and so you can make way for the machinery.
Workbench
All the machines that UtilityCraft adds to the game are crafted on this table, this includes the upgrades, conveyors, and all the things related.
Steel
The steel is a new ore necessary for crafting all the machine related stuff, including their upgrades. Its crafted on the vanilla crafting table.
Machine Case
This is the core or the base for the machines, you need this to craft every single one of them.
This machines are used to automate diferent processes with the purpose of bettering our experience in the game, you can add upgrades of speed and range respectively. All of them need the new block called "Machine Case" and the new ore called Steel.
The Harvester has the function of harvesting all the crops inside of its range, the objects harvested will not be recolected unless you use an Ender Hopper or you place the upgrade necesary so the Harvester can do that. Crops it can harvest:
- All the UtilityCraft crops
- All the vanilla (Wheat, Carrots, Pumpkin, Nether wart, etc.)
- Cactus
- Sugar Cane
- Kelp
Allowed Upgrades:
- Speed (Time in seconds between every harvest per upgrade)
0 = 60s, 1 = 40s, 2 = 20s, 3 = 10s, 4 = 5s
- Range (Area that harvest for every upgrade)
0 = 3x3, 1 = 5x5, 2 = 7x7, 3 = 9x9, 4 = 9x9 + Picks up every item inside its range and places them behind the harvester
Ways of using it:
The harvester can be placed in all directions and it will harvest the area where its facing. On the next image its shown how it works, the green crystal refers to the area (It varies depending on the upgrades) and the blue crystal refers to where it will leave the blocks once it has the necesary upgrade.
Examples:
To store the items you can use hoppers, conveyors or whatever you want to use.
Recipe:
Its used for crushing blocks and converting them into a diferent one, it inserts them to the front of it. It can be placed facing all directions. Allowed blocks:
- Cobblestone -> Gravel
- Gravel -> Dirt
- Dirt -> Sand
- Netherrack -> Crushed Netherrack
Upgrades allowed:
- Speed (Time per upgrade in seconds)
0 = 4s, 1 = 2s, 3 = 0.5s, 4 = 0.25s
Ways of using it:
The Crusher can receive the items from hoppers, a cobblestone generator (Pointing to the Crusher) and even from another Crusher (Also pointing to the next Crusher). If a wrong item enters the Crusher you can save it, all you need to do is place a hopper below the crusher and it will come out. (You need to place a chest in front of the last Crusher so it can store the blocks).
Examples:
Depending on what block you want to obtain it will be the crushers you'll need to place, remember that they have to be facing to the next one so that the next one can receive it.
Recipe:
It filters the blocks that you give them in order to get resources depending of the block and it places it on a chest infront of it. It can be placed facing all directions. Allowed blocks:
- Gravel
- Dirt
- Grass
- Sand
- Soulsand
- Crushed Netherrack
Allowed upgrades:
- Speed (Time per upgrade in seconds)
0 = 4s, 1 = 2s, 2 = 1s, 3 = 0.5s, 4 = 0.25s
Probability of what every block drops: (The autosieve has a diamond mesh, so the multiplier is x3)
Ways of using it:
The Autosieve can receive the items from a hopper or directly from the crusher (Pointing to the Autosieve). If a wrong item enters the Autosieve you can save it, all you need to do is place a hopper below the Autosieve and it will come out. (You need to place a chest infront of the autosieve so it can store the items).
Examples:
The number of crushers behind of the Autosieve depends of the final block you want to filter.
Recipe:
It breaks blocks that are infront of it, besides the undistructible ones. It can be placed in all directions and its useful for automate the process of converting concrete dust to concrete, and many other things. Allowed upgrades:
- Speed (Time per upgrade in seconds)
0 = 4s, 1 = 2s, 2 = 1s, 3 = 0.5s, 4 = 0.25s
Ways of using it:
Simply place it facing the direction that you desire and it'll break the block that it has infront, whether it's manual or moving it with a piston.
Examples:
Recipe:
This is really useful when you want to transport items in all directions. Not like the hoppers than cant go up, and is really cool that you can see the items moving around your construction.
The cobblestone generator has 5 tiers, which are iron, gold, emerald, diamond and netherite respectively. Each tier slightly increases the production speed of the generator. These have a conduit on one side of the block which indicates where the generated cobblestone will be kept, to collect it simply put a chest, shulker, etc. on that side and it will automatically be stored inside. They can be placed in all directions so you won't have problems accommodating them
Recipes:
The speeds of the cobblestone generators are as follows
- Cobblestone Tier 1: 0.5 per second
- Cobblestone Tier 2: 1 per second
- Cobblestone Tier 3: 2 per second
- Cobblestone Tier 4: 4 per second
- Cobblestone Tier 5: 20 per second
Ender Hopper
You will need a hopper below to move the items!
The ender hopper can pick up items that are nearby, it has 2 ranges: 3 and 5 block radius. To change the ranges you have to interact at the top while crouching and the area reached will appear for a few seconds. To turn it off and on is the same but with the wrench in hand. If you want to open the inventory you just have to interact while standing still.
Mob Grinder
The mob grinder works similar to a trident killer, it causes constant damage to the mobs until they are killed, they drop experience and their loot, so you can pick it up with the XP magnet and the ender hopper.
Fans
They push the mobs in the direction you are pointing, with several of these you can move them great distances without many complications, or push them into the mob grinder to kill them.
XP Magnet
This block will collect nearby XP orbs, it has a radius of 10 blocks. This can be used in mob farms so you could be in a safe zone collecting all the XP.
Mob Trap
When a mob touch the trap it will be immobilized for 10 seconds and the trap will be deactivated, to activate it you just have to right click and it will be ready to be used again
Mechanical Spawners
Mechanical Spawners, adds a new way of making mob farms. They work similar to vanilla spawners, but instead of using the eggs, they the essence of the mob, which you need to craft.
Crafting of the Spawners
In order to make the spawner, you will need to craft the spawner core.
Then using the spawner core you can craft the mechanical spawner with the following recipe.
Crafting of the Essences
The mechanical spawners works with a new item, called "essence", which changes depending on the mob. First we need to create the Essence Vessel in a crafting table.
With the essence vessel we can start crafting the essences of each mob, which in this case only exist 8 for now. Using the brewing stand where potions are normally made, we will place the essence vessel and a drop from the mob. The objects depending on each mob are the following:
- Zombie: Rotten flesh
- Skeleton: Bone
- Creeper: Gunpowder
- Spider: Spider eye
- Slime: Slime ball
- Cow: Leather
- Pork: Raw porkchop
- Sheep: Wool
How to use the spawners
To place the essence in the spawner, you will simply have to put the essence of the mob in your hand and right click or use it in the spawner. If you did it correctly you will see how the texture will have changed, and the mob's face will appear. If you want to remove the essence either to change it or leave it empty, you must do the same but using the essence container, this will return it to its original state. You must make sure that there are no blocks touching the spawner for it to work correctly, since if a block is attached to it, it will not summon the mobs. This can be very useful when designing a spawner on and off system.
If these conditions are met, the spawner will try to summon 1 mob on each side every 5-15 seconds with a probability of 25%, this means that it may or may not summon any or 4 at the same time.
Upgrades for the spawners
In the next update...
Crops
The crops arrive with a new type of blocks, the soil. There are 4 soil tiers: yellow, red, blue, and black, respectively. You can see the recipe in the crafting table.
Crops also have a tier, which comes in the name of the seed, and this indicates in which soil it can be planted. Each crop has its own seed and can be crafted in the normal crafting table using the mineral and the base seed. (You can see all the recipes there).
The lava and water crops drop new items, the lava ball and the water ball. They can be used to place water/lava, but since they are stackable, they are more useful than buckets. They can also be used in crafts that use buckets of water/lava, and by using 2 of each you can craft obsidian.
Tools
There are a lot of new tools in this addon, they have unique functions or abilities that can help you in your survival. Like the advanced tool that works as a vein.
The advanced shovel is faster than the normal shovel and can remove large areas of gravel quickly.
Crafting
Recipes Examples:
The advanced axe has the ability to cut down a tree very quickly.
Crafting
Recipes Examples:
The advanced pickaxe works like a vein miner, this makes it easier and faster to break all ores, including andesite, granite and diorite.
Crafting
Recipes Examples:
The advanced hoe is used to till a 3x3 of dirt into farmland, so you can make larger crop areas much easier and faster. It can also automatically farm in a 3x3 block area without the need to replant all crops, just with one click.
AIOTs (All in One Tool) work like a sword, axe, pickaxe, shovel, and hoe in one tool, they are faster and stronger than vanilla tools.
Crafting
Recipes Examples:
The paxel works as a pickaxe, axe, and shovel in 1 tool, they have the same durability and speed as vanilla tools.
Crafting
Recipes Examples:
When you create this pickaxe, it's automatically enchanted with Fortune V, so it's really useful for mining.
Crafting
The hammer works like a normal pickaxe, but it has the ability to dig obsidian, crying obsidian, ancient debris, and netherite blocks fairly quickly.
Crafting
Recipes Examples:
The drill digs a 3x3x3 cube around the player when used.
The heavy drill works similar to the drill, but it digs a 5x5x5 around the player, it is very useful for mining large areas.
Crafting
With this pickaxe, when mining the gold, iron or copper ore, it will give you its respective ingot, and when mining the ancient debris, it will give you the netherite scrap without using a furnace. It also has great speed, surpassing the golden pickaxe.
Crafting
Bonsais
The bonsai can be used with the 4 types of soils in the addon, the better the soil, the more resources it will drop. You just have to place the bonsai and click on the top with the soil in your hand, and then using the treated sapling (it is crafted with a normal sapling), your tree will start to grow in a few seconds.
Sieve
This is the manual version of the autosieve. After crafting and placing it, you must interact on top of the sieve with one of the 4 types of mesh to place it, and then simply using gravel, dirt, or sand, it will be filtered and can drop different loot. The better the mesh, the more likely it will drop something. The types of mesh are string, iron, diamond, and netherite, and they are crafted on the normal table. You can use the hammer to break down cobble all the way down to sand, similar to the crusher but manually. (You can use gravel, dirt, sand, grass, soulsand and crushed netherrack)
New Items, Blocks and More
UtilityCraft adds a wide variety of items, such as elevators, vehicles, explosives, among others.
Antidote Potion
Its used to transform the zombie villagers back to normal villagers
Ore Igniter
When you have this item on your second hand, it'll smelt all the ores automatically from your inventory.
Smeltflare
This item is used to smelt raw ores and veins of ores from your inventory, without using the furnace (this item has only have one use).
This are some examples of the things you can make:
Infinite Ender Pearl
This Infinite Ender Pearl can be thrown infinite times (It has a cooldown of 3 seconds).
Accelerator Clock
The accelerator clock speeds up time when you have the item in hand and you are sneaking. This is really useful to make crops or trees grow faster.
Throwable Explosives
There are 3 throwable explosives: the grenade, which does not break blocks, the bomb which is somewhat weaker than a TNT, and finally, the TNT, which is stronger than a TNT. They can be used to go mining or to annoy your friends.
Here are some examples:
Big Torch
Works like a normal torch, with the only difference that it illuminates a much bigger area.
Lantern
Similar to the big torch, but with a even bigger area.
Elevator
It has a maximum of 200 blocks, to get up, you just need to jump, and to get down, you have to crouch and interact with the block.
Sink
It's like infinite water in one block, just right-click with a bucket, and that's it.
Asphalt
By walking on this block you get a great speed useful to cover long distances when you don't have elytros. You can change the texture of the asphalt just by interacting with the block you want to use.
Compressed Blocks
Are crafted using 9 of the original block.
Tractor
The tractor is used to collect all the crops that exist in vanilla and this addon. When the tractor passes over the crops it automatically collects and replants them, all items are saved in the inventory you have.
To place it, you just have to craft it and right-click on any block. And to remove it, you have to right-click with the wrench. At the moment, the wrench only has one use, which is to remove the tractor and the drill, but in the future it will have too many uses.
Mining Drill
A new vehicle to the addon, this mountable drill with capacity for 2 people is useful for mining or tunneling, and thanks to its inventory, you can go mining in a more fun way and for longer.
Utility Table
All the tools in this addon are crafted on the advanced crafting table, which is made with 4 diamonds, 3 iron ingots, 1 anvil, and a crafting table.
Crafting
New Useful Recipes added by the addon
There are a lot of useful crafts in this addon, here are some examples:
You can craft raw leather using rotten flesh, and then using a furnace you can make leather.
Now, if you burn the raw blocks of iron, copper and gold, you obtain the normal block.
You can also use the slabs to craft the original block. (It works with all the slabs)
Crying Obsidian is now craftable.
Chests and sticks can be crafted using any type of log.
