Machines
This addon adds a new crafting table called workbench, where you can craft all the stuff related to machines, including the upgrades, machine cases, conveyors, machines, etc.
It also adds a new ore called steel, which is necessary for crafting all the machine related stuff, including their upgrades. Itโs crafted on the vanilla crafting table. You will also need to craft a machine case to make the machines.
There are 3 upgrades currently working (speed, range and quantity). To install the upgrades into a machine, you need to interact with the machine with the upgrade in your hand. To uninstall them, just interact with the machine using a wrench. If you interact with your bare hand, it will tell you the current upgrades the machine has.
Crusher
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
Autosieve
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
Harvester
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
Block Breaker
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
Cobblestone Generators
There are 5 tiers of cobblestone generators, which are iron, gold, emerald, diamond and netherite respectively. Each tier slightly increases the production speed of the generator.
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!
Bountiful Crops
At the moment, there are 31 types of crops. These special crops drop the ore when fully grown and the loot is affected by fortune, so if you have fortune 3 in your tools, you will obtain a lot of resources. The bonemeal does not affect its growth but the accelerator clock does. They work with the harvester and tractor!
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.
Mechanical Spawners
Mechanical Spawners add a new way of making mob farms. They work similar to vanilla spawners, but instead of using the eggs, they are the essence of the mob, which you need to craft.
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.
Fluid Tanks
Fluid tanks can store water, lava, milk and XP. They can be picked up and they will save liquid and amount. Interact with a filled bucket or water/lava balls to store a certain fluid and use an empty bucket to extract it.
- Basic Fluid Tank 8000 mB (8 Buckets)
- Advanced Fluid Tank 32000 mB (32 Buckets)
- Expert Fluid Tank 128000 mB (128 Buckets)
- Ultimate Fluid Tank 512000 mB (512 Buckets)
Use an XP drain on top of the tank to store XP and an XP spout on one side to extract it (you have to interact with the spout to open it).
New Tools
The addon also adds a few new tools, like paxels, AIOTs, drills, smelting pickaxes, and lucky tools. They are crafted in the utility table.
- AIOTs (All In One Tool): Works as all the tools one. It has vein miner and tree capitator when sneaking. It can harvest a 3x3 area of crops.
- Paxel: Similar to AIOTs, but only pickaxe, axe and shovel.
- Drills: The normal one breaks 3x3x3. The heavy one breaks 5x5x5.
- Smelting Pickaxe: Smelts ore on breaking.
- Lucky Tools: Comes with high level enchaments for farm purposes, such as looting, fortune and sea luck.
Mob Grinding
UtilityCraft adds several blocks for mob grinding, such as the mob grinder, XP magnet and fans. The fan accepts range upgrades to increase the max range. The magnet and the fan have an interface to configure them.
New Hoppers
At the moment, UtilityCraft adds 3 hoppers: the ender hopper, mechanical upper and mechanical hopper. They are crafted in the workbench and you can install upgrades to them.
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
Mechanical Hopper/Upper
Speed Upgrade (items per second):
- 0 = 8
- 1 = 16
- 2 = 32
- 3 = 64
- 4 = 128
Useful Blocks
Sink
It's like infinite water in one block, just right click with a bucket and that's it.
Elevator
It works in every dimension, to get up, you just need to jump, and to get down, you have to crouch and interact with the block.
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).
Big Torch and Lantern
They both work like a normal torch, with the only difference that it illuminates a much bigger area
