The selected inventory can be switched either by right-clicking with a wrench or by utilizing Buildcraft gates. Secondly, extraction pipes can only extract items from one inventory at a time the inventory that is currently being drawn from is marked by an opaque connector in place of a transparent one. A Pipe Pulsar may be used to extract items in place of providing energy. There are three types of extraction pipes each with different abilities and features, however, all three types share three common traits.įirstly, extraction pipes require some amount of energy in order to function using larger amounts of energy will enable more items to be extracted at once. A pipe with high friction will slow items down more than a pipe with low friction.Įxtraction pipes are pipes that can remove items from inventories and insert them into pipe networks. Wooden, Stone, and Gold conductive pipes.Īll item transporting pipes have a property referred to as "friction" this measures how much a pipe will slow down items traveling through them. Wooden, Cobblestone, Iron, Stone, Gold, Diamond, Obsidian, Emerald, Void, and Sandstone pipes.Įmerald, Gold, Wood, Cobblestone, Iron, Stone, Sandstone, and Void waterproof pipes. Vanilla examples of such are Chests, Furnaces, Hoppers, and Brewing Stands. Pipes can interact with blocks that possess inventories, with the ability to insert and extract items from them. In addition to items, certain types of pipes can be used to transport liquids and power in the form of Minecraft Joules. Note that you can create slag ex-nihilo with "dirt water electrolysis", so you are not dependent upon lower-tier sorting methods for your slag.Pipes are a fundamental part of Buildcraft, allowing items to be transported around the world without the player being required to carry them. I recommend using trains to manage this, as otherwise you're likely to end up with a big mess. You'll need a production area for lime and it's variants near a shore, starting with the deep sea pump this is both necessary for some essential recipes, and highly useful for many of the plate-multiplying angels smelting recipes.įinally.your end-game method for obtaining ores will be based on crushing, floating, chemically refining, then thermally refining ores as needed, then combining them with brown catalyst to make a pure-ore. Most byproducts require sulfuric acid to deal with in bobs+angels, your best source of sulfur is "clean coal to coke". You'll need an area for dealing with byproducts. leave yourself plenty of room (20-50 tiles for the bus itself) In-depth expirimentation with petrochems is quite optional, and perhaps even a waste of space in the long run if you DO wish to play with it for whatever reason, you'll want an entire fluid bus for it. Get plastic by turning wood into fiber, into methene/methanol(bleh I can't remember the names, I think you'll go through both those steps in the end), then eventually into liquid plastic which you cast. I recommend having it be perpendicular to the "main" bus where science, gears, and other random things go. Make an entire BUS just for all your circuits and circuit components it'll be about 50-100 tiles wide and 200 or so tiles long when all is said and done, depending on how you try to lay it all out. (you should not need more than 4 rows of 10 furnaces for each of them if you REALLY need more you're probably ready for the smelting phase anyways.) The exception is bobmonium you'll want to start "sorting" crushed bobmonium fairly soon in order to get quartz for glass, which is needed for tree farms (tree farms let you automate wood). You will want to crush each of these and smelt them early on don't really worry about setting up your "main bus" until you have a somewhat expandable setup for each of these. I recommend starting with really rich fields.
#MINECRAFT LOGISTICAL SORTER SPEED MOD#
Blue boards need iirc solder and basic electronic components, which require you to mix tin+lead, and carbon (processed from coal) respectively.ĪNGELS mod makes getting at your basic ores much more complicated, and often forces you to use a more complicated method just to turn those into plates.įor your initial ore processing, you should have 1 of each of the 4 starting ores: bobmonium, rubyte, saphirite, stiratite. Your basic circuits are split between brown and blue boards brown boards just need some smoothed-out wood (not too hard) and some copper cable they're not terribly difficult. First, Bobs.COMPLETELY rearranges how you make circuits, and gives you just plain old a ton of ore you need to work with to get to the point where you launch rockets.
