Core Features
Planet Simulator Multiblock
The Planet Simulator is a 7x7x3 multiblock structure that processes space missions. Insert activated planet cards, supply power and input materials, then collect dimensional resources from your outputs.
Planet Card System
Craft blank planet cards and link them to dimensions. Travel to the Overworld, Nether, or End, then right-click to activate. Each dimension provides different recipes:
- Earth (Overworld): Common ores, mob drops, basic resources
- Mars (Nether): Nether materials, Ancient Debris, Netherite Scrap, Blaze Rods
- Venus (End): End resources, rare item duplication (Elytra, Dragon Eggs)
- Black Hole: High-power energy generation
Compressor
The Compressor processes tantalum ingots into sheets. This is your starting point for building multiblock components.
Bus Blocks
Connect multiblocks with specialized bus blocks:
- Energy Input/Output Bus
- Item Input/Output Bus
- Fluid Input/Output Bus
Upgrades
Three upgrade types modify machine behavior:
- Speed: Reduces processing time
- Energy: Lowers power consumption
- Luck: Increases bonus output probability
Progression
- Mine Tantalum Ore in the Overworld and smelt into ingots
- Build a Compressor to create Tantalum Sheets
- Craft multiblock components and assemble the 7x7x3 Planet Simulator
- Link planet cards by traveling to dimensions and right-clicking
- Supply the multiblock with power, items, and planet cards
- Collect processed outputs and install upgrades for efficiency
Game Mechanics
Catalysts
Some recipes require catalyst items. Catalysts are consumed when a recipe starts but returned when it completes. This system gates expensive recipes like Elytra duplication while allowing reuse.
Weighted Outputs
Recipe outputs use probability calculations. Each output has a base chance that can be increased with Luck upgrades. The same input recipe can produce different results each time.
Energy Integration
All machines use Forge Energy (FE/RF). Power can be supplied from any compatible tech mod. Planet cards can also generate energy using the Planet Power Generation system.
JEI Support
Full integration with Just Enough Items. View all recipes, browse multiblock structures layer-by-layer, and see exact input/output ratios.
