Auto Machines 2.0 — Industrial Evolution

From your first machine to a connected industrial base.

Turn everyday survival work into an industrial project. Harvest wood, excavate a quarry, automate crops and deliver resources to your chests. Power the system with sunlight, uranium or storms, store the energy and build a water-cooling network to support your reactor.

Auto Machines connects survival progression with machines you can craft, configure and watch at work. Moving parts, animated panels, work beams and visible transfer effects make your production line part of the base itself.

The 2.0 finish

Nuclear equipment redesigned: the Reactor and Uranium Processor feature rebuilt steel surfaces, aligned copper trim, clear green panels and coordinated cooling details.
New held-item artwork: the Reactor, Processor, Nuclear Fuel Cell and Depleted Cell now have 128 × 128 icons. Fuel-cell casings follow the Solar and Storm Battery design family.
Machines you can watch at work: animated displays, processing parts and coolant details bring the installation to life. The reactor changes color as it heats up and signals alert states. Nuclear surfaces use a 128-pixel-per-block texture density.
Choose your direction: sneak-interact with the Machine Wrench to rotate a machine 90°. Pause the Mining Machine first; rotating rebuilds its frame and restarts its scan while retaining the selected width, inventory, battery and upgrades.
Crafting made easier: all recipes have explicit recipe-book unlock conditions. Nuclear fuel also has an equal-cost recipe that accepts its nine ingredients in any order.

Latest fix — More complete quarry excavation

Version 2.0.1 fixes vegetation incorrectly stopping entire mining columns. Supported vanilla grass, flowers, ferns and leaves are now cleared without collecting those plant items, allowing the machine to continue through supported terrain and ores below.

Already have a quarry? Update both packs and enable your existing Mining Machine with a charged battery and room for output. On its first run with the fix, it revisits columns skipped by the old logic. You do not need to dismantle the machine or rebuild its frame; previously excavated air produces no duplicate resources or mining energy cost.

Quarry dimensions follow the interior of the selected boundary, rather than the world's 16 × 16 chunk grid. Lava, containers and unsupported/protected blocks retain their column protection. Keep the complete work area loaded.

Everything added since 1.3.1

More ways to power your base: Battery Bank, Nuclear Reactor, Lightning Tower, Storm Accumulator and Storm Charging Station.
A complete uranium progression: ore, processing, pellets, fuel cells and a dedicated uranium block.
Radiation equipment: a four-piece Hazmat Suit, a Dosimeter, exposure warnings and reactor alarms.
Automatic reactor cooling: an electric Water Pump, visible Water Pipes and a passive 16,000 mB Water Reservoir.
Higher-capacity batteries: Storm Batteries store 6,000 EU and work with compatible machines.
A refreshed industrial look: revised machine surfaces, upgrade finishes, animated displays, held-item icons and a new pack icon.
Better controls and quarry behavior: container-style machine screens, Portuguese/English/Spanish controls, vegetation replacement and mining beneath water.

The Lumber, Mining and Farming Machines, wireless Storage, solar power and three speed upgrades were already present in 1.3.1 and remain part of the addon.

Production machines — Put your resources to work

Lumber Machine

Collect supported logs and Nether stems, clear matching foliage without filling storage with leaves, and replant using the replacement saplings or fungi you supply.

Choose a 17 × 17, 25 × 25 or 33 × 33 work area.
Provide the replacement species you want: oak stays oak, acacia stays acacia.
Cutting does not require spare saplings; replanting does.
Dark oak and pale oak need four matching saplings and a valid 2 × 2 planting space.

Keep the work area away from wooden builds: supported logs inside it may be harvested too.

Mining Machine

Build a quarry with an automatic frame, moving mining head, gantry and vertical work beam. Collect supported terrain and ores across a 7 × 7, 15 × 15, 23 × 23 or 31 × 31 interior, with depths of 16, 32, 64 blocks or down to bedrock.

Supported vanilla vegetation is cleared without collecting plant drops, so it no longer causes the whole column below to be skipped.

Water remains in the world while the scan continues beneath it. Lava, bedrock, containers and unsupported/protected blocks still stop their columns. The automatic boundary clears supported vegetation and common natural terrain along the frame path, on the boundary layer and the layer immediately above. Its height stays fixed, and removed terrain drops its corresponding materials near the machine. Containers, machines, ores, liquids and unsupported obstacles remain protected. Mining uses fixed addon drops, without Fortune or XP generation.

Farming Machine

Plant, harvest mature crops and replant wheat, carrots, potatoes and beetroot using dedicated planting reserves. Work areas are 17 × 17, 25 × 25 or 33 × 33. Output stays separate from the battery and planting supplies.

Prepare normal farmland, water and lighting. This machine does not till soil, irrigate fields or accelerate crop growth.

Iron, Diamond and Netherite speed upgrades

Upgrade individual producers through three speed tiers. Higher tiers replace lower tiers and change the supported machines' material finishes. A Netherite upgrade can be installed directly; actual production still depends on battery charge, available work, storage space and loaded areas.

Power your base — Solar, nuclear and storms

Solar Panel and Battery Bank

The Solar Panel generates energy in the Overworld during daylight with a clear view of the sky. Its panel changes angle with the time of day. Connect energy cables to installed machine batteries; an internal panel battery can store surplus and provide night-time power.

The Battery Bank stores 10,000 EU, receives energy from compatible generators and supplies connected batteries. More machines share the available supply, so expand generation and storage as your base grows.

Nuclear generation

Find uranium ore in newly generated Overworld terrain, process raw uranium into pellets and craft fuel cells. The Uranium Processor uses an installed battery; the Nuclear Reactor converts fuel and coolant into energy, with a 20,000 EU internal reserve.

Monitor fuel, water and temperature through the controls. Thermal visuals, animated panels and warning sounds show the reactor's operating state. Water is required for generation, and safety shutdowns must be reset through the wrench controls after the relevant condition is resolved.

Explore new terrain to find newly generated uranium ore. Existing explored chunks do not automatically gain the ore.

Radiation protection

Uranium materials and nearby radioactive blocks can cause addon radiation exposure. Wear the complete four-piece Hazmat Suit for protection against this system. The Dosimeter provides exposure feedback and Geiger-style clicks when held in the main hand or offhand.

Exposure warnings appear independently of the Dosimeter. Partial suits do not provide the complete suit's protection.

Lightning Tower and Storm Accumulator

Build a tall lightning-capture installation with a native lightning-rod antenna and an open view of the sky. Enabled equipment can capture nearby natural lightning within its supported 64-block horizontal range, subject to available storage and loaded areas.

Route captured energy through the addon's energy cables into a 100,000 EU Storm Accumulator. Receiving indicators and transfer pulses make the network's activity visible.

Storm Charging Station and batteries

Connect the accumulator to a Storm Charging Station, insert a battery and store that energy for your machines. Rechargeable Solar Batteries hold 1,000 EU; Storm Batteries hold 6,000 EU. Compatible machine slots and charging systems respect the installed battery's capacity.

Wireless item links do not carry electricity. Keep generators, accumulators and machines connected by actual loaded energy-cable paths.

Automatic water cooling — Build the reactor's support system

Source water → Electric Water Pump → Water Pipes → Water Reservoir → Water Pipes → Nuclear Reactor

Place the pump by a source block. It can detect source water in its base cell, directly below or beside the base. Flowing water does not count as a source.
Install a charged battery. Use the pump's wrench menu to install/remove a normal or Storm Battery. Connect energy cables if you want automatic recharging.
Set the flow. Choose 25%, 50%, 75% or 100%. Higher flow uses more energy; pumping consumes energy when water is delivered.
Connect a reservoir. The passive tank stores up to 16,000 mB. It has no battery and no power switch. Its controls report stored water, input and output.
Feed the reactor. Build a continuous pipe route from the reservoir to the reactor body. Reservoir and reactor body-height connections are supported, including upper connections.

Connected reservoirs receive and provide water automatically. The reactor still accepts manual water-bucket refueling. Stored water can continue supplying the reactor when the pump stops, until the reserve runs out.

Water Pipes show transfer activity and flow sections. The reservoir shows four fill-height bands with animated vanilla-style water. Reservoir water is opaque in this release; pipe water remains translucent. These are custom visual liquids inside equipment, not the world's native water shader.

Water sources are renewable and are not removed from the lake. Pipe networks support up to 64 loaded segments and equipment belonging to the same owner.

Wireless Storage — Deliver production into your chests

Install a Wireless Module in a supported producer and select an owned Storage Machine within 64 blocks, in the same dimension. Output moves wirelessly into Storage's 54 inventory slots; installed batteries and reserved planting supplies stay in their machines.

For automatic chest delivery, place a chest directly against any horizontal side of the Storage Machine, at the same base height. When Storage is enabled, ordinary items are exported into it. Full or unavailable destinations leave the remaining items at the source.

Wireless sends consume energy from the producer. Use the available storage filters and keep both ends loaded.

Machine controls and presentation

Container-style screens: real inventory slots on supported machines, plus compact status panels.
Wrench controls: interact with the Machine Wrench to manage settings, batteries, areas and dismantling. Sneak with the wrench to rotate 90°; sneak-interaction without it still accesses settings. Pause a quarry before rotating it.
Three menu languages: choose Portuguese, English or Spanish through the machine controls.
Readable labels: friendly machine titles replace technical identifiers; names may appear when targeted.
Active machinery: animated displays, work beams, upgrade finishes, thermal indicators, original sounds and visible transfer effects.

These machines use custom anchored entities rather than ordinary full solid blocks. Keep them and their networks loaded; they do not force chunks to remain active.

Uranium processing

Raw Uranium → Uranium Pellet is a machine process in the powered Uranium Processor, not a crafting-table recipe. Fuel cells are crafted from the resulting pellets. Depleted cells are reactor output.
