UtilityCraft

When will UtilityCraft 3.0 will be released?

We are currently working in the biggest update for Utility, although there is not really an exact date, we expect to release it at the end of March.

Information

This update will add a lot of new stuff, as well as fixing bugs. Some of the new stuff includes a completely new Energy System created by Dorios, primitive mechanics, Machines, and a lot more! UtilityCraft will have 2 versions: Lite and Ultimate

Lite:

It will not include: Energy System, some machines and mechanics. So if you dont like using an energy system or somehow your game lags with the new stuff, feel free to use this version.

Ultimate:

The main version of the addon, including all of the new stuff. Comes with a configurable refresh rate, so you can set how fast you want the addon to refresh the machines information to prevent lag.

Sneak Peeks:

Energy System:

It's used for crushing blocks and converting them into a different 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

How to use 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).

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 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 on the block and it places it on a chest in front of it. It can be placed facing all directions. Allowed blocks:

• Gravel
• Dirt
• Grass
• Sand
• Soulsand
• Crushed Netherrack

Upgrades allowed:

Speed (time per upgrade in seconds):

• 0 = 4s
• 1 = 2s
• 3 = 0.5s
• 4 = 0.25s

Probability of what every block drops: (The autosieve has a diamond mesh, so the multiplier is x3)

How to use 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 in front of the autosieve so it can store the items).

The number of crushers behind the Autosieve depends on the final block you want to filter.

Recipe

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 necessary 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

Upgrades allowed:

Speed (time in seconds between every harvest per upgrade):

• 0 = 60s
• 1 = 40s
• 2 = 20s
• 3 = 10s
• 4 = 5s

Range (area that harvests for every upgrade):

• 0 = 3x3
• 1 = 5x5
• 2 = 7x7
• 3 = 9x9
• 4 = 9x9 and picks up every item inside its range and places them behind the harvester.

How to use it?

The harvester can be placed in all directions and it will harvest the area where it is facing. On the next image, it's 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 necessary upgrade.

To store the items, you can use hoppers, conveyors or whatever you want to use.

Recipe

It breaks blocks that are in front of it, besides the undistructible ones. It can be placed in all directions and it's useful for automating 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

How to use it?

Simply place it facing the direction that you desire and it'll break the block that it has in front, whether it's manual or moving it with a piston.

Recipe

How do they work?

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.

They can save up to 64 of cobblestone if no container is available, interact with the generator to obtain the cobblestone.

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

This is the speed of the tier 5 generator.

Compressed Cobblestone

The compressed cobblestone is very useful for storing large amounts of cobblestone, which, thanks to the generators, is possible without taking up so much storage space. To compress it, you only need 9 cobblestones and put them on a crafting table. You can compress it up to a maximum of 9 times, where 1 single block is equivalent to just over 43 million of cobblestone. I bet you can't get the last compressed cobblestone!

The crops arrive with a new type of block, the soil. There are 4 soil tiers: yellow, red, blue, and black, respectively. You can see the recipe on 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 crop drops a new item, 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. Can also be used in crafts that use buckets of water/lava, and by using 2 of each, you can craft obsidian.

Upgrades allowed:

Speed (time per upgrade in seconds):

• 0 = 25s - 35s
• 1 = 20s - 30s
• 2 = 15s - 25s
• 3 = 10s - 20s
• 4 = 5s - 15s

Quantity:

• Max: 1 mob , 50%
• Max: 2 mob , 50%
• Max: 3 mob , 50%
• Max: 4 mob , 50%
• Max: 4 mob , 75%

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.

How to obtain the essences?

The mechanical spawners work with a new item called "essence", which changes depending on the mob. First we need to create the Essence Vessel in a crafting table, then you need to right click the mob that you want with the vessel, hold that vessel in your offhand and you will need to kill mobs of that kind until it reaches 100%, once you reach the max, it will convert into the mob essence.

Ender Hopper

It has an interface where you can modify its range and turn it on/off.

Range Upgrade (radius in blocks per level):

• 0 = 3
• 1 = 5
• 2 = 7
• 3 = 9
• 4 = 11
