Automation
Do vanilla things but in an automated way.
Automation Basics
These are devices usually use some sort of tool to do their actions. Their general purpose is to stop you from doing the things you have to do over and over again in vanilla Minecraft. Like gathering resources from the world for example.
Automation Devices
This a list of all of the Automation devices in Minetorio.
Auto Miner
Pickaxes (Reccomend to use iron and above)
This will break blocks in a configurable range beneath it. It can break up to a 15x15 area. This is great for gathering cobblestone and general resources. Though you'll need to design a robust sorting system for the possible materials.
Auto Butcher
Swords
This will kill animals when there is 8 or more adults of the same type nearby. It will not gather the drops though. This device will only work if its chunk is loaded.
Deep Drill
Pickaxes
This device can gather resources from resource zones, so it could produce raw iron, copper, uranium or even oil. These resource zones could contain hundreds of stacks of items in them. These are great for getting a lot of a specific resource.
Auto Collector
Nothing
This device will collect nearby drops in a configurable range. The top row of its UI can be used to filter drops. So placing a sapling in it, means the collector will only grab saplings off the ground. These are super useful with Vanilla Mob farms. This device will only work if its chunk is loaded.
Auto Timer
Nothing
This device can emit a redstone signal on a specific time frame. Useful for redstone setups and they are prefered by admins versus redstone clocks as they are way better on performance. This device will only work if its chunk is loaded.
Auto Breeder
Nothing
This will feed nearby animals their required food needed for breeding. There is a limit to how many they will breed. Servers admins typically change this value. This device will only work if its chunk is loaded.
Auto Milker
Empty Bucket
This uses empty buckets to milk nearby cows. This device will only work if its chunk is loaded.
Auto Plucker
Nothing
This plucks feathers off nearby chickens, it goes on cooldown per chicken. This device will only work if its chunk is loaded.
Auto Shearer
Shears
This will gather wool from nearby sheep, which is very useful for making belts. This device will only work if its chunk is loaded.
Auto Harvester
Hoes
This will gather nearby crops using hoes. This device will only work if its chunk is loaded.
Auto Planter
Hoes
This will plant crops using hoes and seeds. This device will only work if its chunk is loaded.
Auto Breaker
Pickaxes
This device will break whatever block is in front of it using pickaxes. This device will only work if its chunk is loaded. This is often used in crusher sifter setups to create cobblestone needed for crushing.
Asteroid Collector
Iron Pickaxe+
This gathers resources from asteroid chunks in space. However it needs iron pickaxes at a minimum to work. You need to have sam sites or a rail gun to break up asteroids into chunks to fully utilize this device.
Experience Synthesizer
Nothing
This device uses glass bottles and items to produce experience bottles. However it takes a lot of items to do this, this is a good resource sink though. Some items have higher experience value then others like lapis for example.
Auto Duster
Brush
This will uses brushes to clear dust. Eventually this device will produce sand, so you need to find a way to deal with the sand.
Auto Cauldron
Empty Bucket
This device will empty the liquid in it if provided with empty buckets. Useful for lava farming.
Auto Placer
Nothing
This device can place blocks in a configurable rectangle shape. Really useful for building simple walls, floors and roofs.
Incinerator
Nothing
This will delete the inputted item. However this produces pollution, but it is useful for overflow or temporary setups.
T2 & Above Power Generators
Most of these power sources make a lot of power. But unlike T1 sources, they require resources to keep generating power.
Steam Engine (T2)
This device uses steam to generate power, it doesn't make any pollution itself! These are a great leap forward in power production.
Hydrogen Engine (T2)
This produces power from Hydrogen, which can be obtained from a Gas Extractor or an Advanced Assembler using blue ice and gas canisters. It makes clean power, but is hard to harvest reliably. These are useful in space though as blue ice is available in the asteroids there.
Petroleum Engine (T3)
This power device generates power from Petroleum or Petrol for short. It is a dirt power source but it generates a lot of power. So you don't need many of them!
Nuclear Reactor (T4)
The pinnacle of power production, whilst obtaining uranium might make some pollution, compared to other sources it produces very little and makes a ton of power. It will use less space then other devices as well. This produces heat which is consumed by Heat Exchangers to produce steam.
Heavy Steam Engine (T4)
Similar to the steam engine accept it requires a lot more steam to make power. These are usually used in nuclear reactor setups as they make a lot of steam.
