Manual handheld tools for engineers.
Details
The mod has its focus on manual tools:
REDIA Tool
(REal DIAmond covered tool): Simple manual multi tool combining pickaxe, axe, shovel, and shears. - Reference Efficiency: Diamond. Very efficient when in good condition (about Efficiency III), slow when the durability is low (Efficiency curve configurable). - High Fortune when fully repaired (Fortune III), drops rapidly with the durability (Fortune curve configurable).
Repairable with Diamonds. Enchantable with Unbreaking, but not with Efficiency or additional Fortune (be a proper engineer and keep your tools in good condition ;) ).
- Right-click action: Place torch.
- Sneak-right-click ground: Cycle Dirt - Farmland - Coarse Dirt - Grass Path.
- Sneak-right-click: Shear Sheep, Vines, Grass, Leafs, etc.
- Sneak while breaking a wood log: Tree felling (also higher durability loss).
Please read the community references/credits below. Crafted with iron axe, pickaxe, and shovel, and a diamond.
Auto Stim Pack
May save your life by pushing back a few hearts when your health falls below three hearts. Also gives some small buffs to get out of the present misery. Can also be used as Bauble. Warning: The stim pack pulse injector needs to charge first, so there is a small delay.
Ariadne Coal
A coal pen that allows you to draw arrows on walls, floors and ceilings to find the way out of caves. Build like a "coal sword".
Ore Crushing Hammer
Early game ore-to-grit duplication, as known from the IE ore crusher. The hammer is crafted like the Engineers Hammer, except that one of the two iron ingots is replaced with an iron block. The tool has a comparatively low durability and allowed (by default) to crush 64 stack of ore before breaking. It's not repairable, so a new one has to be crafted - or get an IE Ore Crusher machine ASAP.
Mod pack integration, forking, back ports, bug reports, testing

Packs: If your mod pack is open source as well and has no installer, you don't need to ask and simply integrate this mod.
-
Bug reports: Yes, please let me know. Drop a mail or better open an issue for the repository.
-
Pull requests: Happily accepted. Please make sure that use the develop branch for pull requests. The master branch is for release versions only. I might merge the pull request locally if I'm ahead of the github repository, we will communicate this in the pull request thread then.

Immersive Engineering: IE can be seen as a kind of base mod for my small mod, so the items are designed fit into the Immersive Context.

Botania: The REDIA tool has two features derived from Vazzki's tools, see credits file.
-
Actually Additions: The REDIA tool combo-functionality can also be found in the all-in-one tools Ellpeck's Actually Additions.

Simple Grinder provides a vanilla ore-to-dust device.

The Furnus also adds the "Pulvus", an ore grinder with upgrade capabilities.</li>
The Ariadne coal is a really cool addition. Do you still have intentions on looking into making additional types of drill heads?
In reply to xorbah: hi, I've refrained from doing dhs, it's not easy for me according to balancing (Blu has already balanced the mining drill quite well), IE API hard dependency (harder to maintain), and Blu may also want to add/modify the drill/heads, so conflicting to that would seem inappropriate to me - so have to double check with IE devs, too -
In reply to wilechaote:
I understand. Thank you for still taking the initiative on looking into it. :)
I love the Ariadne coal! Thanks for making mods, I use both of your other mods too and I like your style.
In reply to VoraciousPuma: Hi, many thanks for the positive feedback, much appreciated.
So is saw that the mods are out for Minecraft 1.14 are their any plans that Immersive Engineering will be out for Minecraft 1.14 ?
In reply to ACDCrockcool: Hi - yes, Malte is on the 1.14 port of IE, he's made already loads of work. It still will take quite a bit of time because IE is much bigger and more complex than the small mods that I have here. Also, there are currently some features worked on in the Forge that need to be ported first (e.g. fluidics). If I recall correctly King Lemming and IItemStack are making concepts that fit into the new MC version. So, all in all - all are busy porting ;-).
In reply to wilechaote:
Ty for your Reply im very happy to hear that IE will be coming to Minecraft 1.14.and im very excited maybe too see mods like Twilight Forest come too
The latest updates to both this and engineer's decor have been so good. Can't wait for drills. :)
In reply to xorbah: Cheers - According to the drills ... I have checked a time ago, and there are really a load of external dependencies for implementing that. So that's for me still far off :-[.
In reply to wilechaote:
Darn. Sorry to hear it. :/
Why not integrate this mod dicrectly in Engineer's Decor since it adds only one item ?
In reply to Hypsellis: Hi, I have some (only a few) more features in mind. This mod is about items, while the decor mod is about blocks. The decor mod can add nice looking stuff and helper devices for contraptions. The crushing hammer here introduces early game ore duping, which may break pack mechanics (people do not expect that a deco mod could add something like this).
So in the end it's a better selection for packing.
Excellent
Do you also plan to include other modular tools? Ex.: Saw
Or possibly a modular armor, similar to the Steam Exosuit set (Flaxbeard Steam Power Mod)?
In reply to bakuramastre: Hi, - saw, armor or the like are not planned yet. First thing I intend to add, when I get time, is an early-to-late-game multi tool that can be used as shovel, axe, and pickaxe. No pickaxe vein mining or so (because that would conflict with the mining drill). Depending on how it can be done better tree cutting, and if Vaskii is ok with that I like to transport his idea of right-click-torch-setting and double-shoveling=farmland (known from Botania) into the Engineering context. But that needs to be checked first.
Cheers!
For some reason having this mod installed causes to original IE hammer to double ores, while it does not without this mod.
In reply to Voxel_Friend: That's a good one (lol), because in the first place I wanted to do this with the IE hammer, but went against it because I don't want to mess around with other mods tools. I'll check this out.
They should add a mod with containers of fluids with more capacity, I can not connect the metal barrels to make a single, may be enlarged, but can only be extracted from 1 in 1.
In reply to colormaxs: Hi. This mod is only for tools in the hand. I cannot add barrels. I am very sorry.
Looking forward to seeing this evolve. Just posting this here since I previously posted it on engineer's decor - drill heads made out of various and commonly seen metals through many mods such as copper, soulforged steel (better with mods) etc etc.
