This mod, inspired from mods like Environmental Tech, aims to provide a new way to generate resources, that being a multiblock structure that, when provided power and a view on the void (or bedrock) generates resources.

While this mod is (obviously) inspired by Environmental Tech, it is not a 1:1 copy and, more importantly, HAS NO RELATION WHATSOEVER WITH IT, AND ALL ASSETS (INCLUDING CODE) WERE MADE FROM SCRATCH.

If you update from 1.3.3- to 1.3.4+ you must replace the miners!

The mod VoidMiners Forked IS NOT AFFILIATED WITH ME, PLEASE DO NOT ASK ME QUESTIONS IF YOU'RE NOT USING MY VERSION.

Solar panels are not planned and never will, any mod with solar panels does not have ANY relation with me!

The mod currently has 8 tiers of miner implemented:

Rubetine: Your first miner, has no modifier slots
Aurantium: has 2 modifier slots
Citrinetine: has 4 modifier slots
Verdium: has 6 modifier slots
Azurine: has 8 modifier slots
Caerium: has 10 modifier slots
Amethystine: has 12 modifier slots
Rosarium: has 16 modifier slots

The mod also has 3 types of upgrades, that become better then higher the tier:

Energy Modifier: reduces the energy requirement of the miner
Speed Modifer: reduces the time needed for each item, but increases energy
Item Modifier: increases items given each time it mines, but increases energy

When building a miner, you can shift r-click to toggle a render on how to build the structure, while r-clicking gives a list of all needed materials.

The mod supports JEI to display the items each miner generates.

This mods has common configs (void-miners.json5 for later versions), for configuring miner duration, energy used each tick and modifier values.

For modpack makers, check the source for how to add custom recipes.
The recipes also support nbt data, an example of an nbt file:

{
      "item": "minecraft:iron_axe",
      "nbt": "{Damage:0}",
      "weight": 2.0
}

Full credits to the Environmental Tech team for the original concept.
