Description:
Water Strainer adds the possibility to filter water for common resources.
A strainer catches general items (such as Sand, Gravel, Sticks, Clay, ...) while it's inside water.
They are breakable, but can be build out of different materials to increase their durability.
The idea is to get some common resources while you're busy with something else.
Water height/flow and biome type will influence the efficiency.
Durability, idle time, loot tables and more are customizable.
Water Strainer can also be used for skyblock maps.
How to start:
(1) Craft a strainer base.
(2) Craft any type of strainer.
(3) Place the strainer base inside a pool of water (the base needs water on top).
(4) Put your strainer into the base
The strainer will now filter the water for items. The list of items depends on the strainer type.
Items can be inserted and extracted from the bottom part of the Strainer Base.
Make sure to read about the Efficiency System in the MinecraftForum thread.
Compatibility:
The mod supports Just Enough Items (JEI).
Modpack Policy:
You're allowed to put the mod into any modpack. You are not allowed to sell the mod or contents of the mod (like items).

(4) Put your strainer into the base
The strainer will now filter the water for items. The list of items depends on the strainer type.
Items can be inserted and extracted from the bottom part of the Strainer Base.
Make sure to read about the Efficiency System (section below).
Strainer Types:
There are currently three different types of strainer:
Fisherman's Strainer: Collects all kinds of fish, junk and treasures (Requires Bait)
Survivalist's Strainer: Collects general items such as Stone, Sticks, Clay, Planks
Survivalist's Strainer (Dense): Collects general small-sized items such as Sand, Gravel, Dirt, Nuggets
Idle Time & Durability:
The Strainer Base will attempt to catch an item every 25-35 seconds (by default).
Depending on the efficiency (section below) the idle time will increase or decrease.
Catching an item will damage the Strainer and use up 1 durability.
A higher tier strainer does not have a higher chance to catch something, it will just last longer.
Better ones also receive additional bonuses like efficiency or enchantability.
Efficiency System:
Your strainer's efficiency is based on its placement and increases/decreases the idle time (if enabled).
You can craft an Efficiency Meter to measure the exact percentage. The strainer is currently influenced by:
Still water / flowing water:
Still water (a water source block) will give you no bonus.
Flowing water on the other hand is more efficient and will increase the efficiency by 10%.
Water height:
A lower water level means less efficiency.
If your Strainer Base is more than 1 block away from a water source block, the efficiency will drop by 3% for each block. Which means if your Strainer is at the very end of a water stream (8th block) it will lose 6*3% = 18% efficiency.
So make sure your strainer is as close to the water source as possible, but not directly on the source to benefit from the flowing water bonus.
Adjacent Strainer Bases:
Every Strainer Base in the adjacent 8 Blocks will lower the efficiency by 15%.
So if you plan to make a "farm" make sure to leave 1 block free between each Strainer Base.
Biomes:
If you build your Strainer Base in a specific biome the efficiency may differ.
The Strainer Base itself needs to be in that biome, not the water. Biomes that matter are:
+10% Bonus - (Deep) Ocean
+15% Bonus - Beach
+20% Bonus - River
Configurating the LootTable:
The loottable config is located at config/waterstrainer/waterstrainer_loottable.cfg
Syntax: strainer_name | CATEGORY | modid:item_name | metadata | quantity | rarity
- You can add multiple metadata by separating them with comma (Example: 0,1,2,3)
- Higher rarity = Increased dropchance
- All items in a category share the same dropchance
- If you need help finding the modid and itemname use advanced tooltips (Press F3+H in game)
- Use the category and item name BLANK to decrease the chance of every other item in the loottable
Examples:
1x Ender Pearl from Minecraft with a rarity of 10:
strainer_survivalist | PEARL | minecraft:ender_pearl | 0 | 1 | 10
5x Cheese from Pam's Harvestcraft with a rarity of 5:
strainer_survivalist | FOOD | harvestcraft:cheeseItem | 0 | 5 | 5
1x Manyullyn Ingot from Tinker's Construct [Meta 2 = Manyullyn Ingot] with a rarity of 1:
strainer_survivalist | INGOT | tconstruct:ingots | 2 | 1 | 1
2x one of all 16 possible wool colors from Minecraft with a rarity of 5:
strainer_survivalist | WOOL | minecraft:wool | 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15 | 2 | 5
Automating & Compatibility:
The Strainer Base can easily be automated.
Attach any kind of hopper or item pipe to the bottom block of the Strainer Base to insert and extract items.
You can add any kind of items and blocks from other mods to the loottable - for example iron-or aluminum nuggets.
(Does only work if the item doesn't need any kind of NBT data).

[HERE@curseforge]Changelog:
v3.2.0
* Updated to Forge Build 1.12-14.21.1.2424
* Changed the recipe for Garden Trowel and Nets to prevent recipe conflicts with Chisel and Rustic (#3)
* Renamed config option "bonusReinforcedEnchantable" to "miscEnableEnchanting"
* Changed efficiency calculation
* Reinforced Strainers are now enchantable
v3.1.0
* Updated to Forge Build 1.12-14.21.0.2382
* Renamed Tight Strainer to Dense Strainer
* Removed the Wide Survivalist's Strainer. Now there's the normal version for big items and the dense version for small items.
* Changed some recipes - Also the dense Strainer is no longer more expensive than the normal version.
* Added a passive bonus to the Solid and
Reinforced Strainers. The solid one has an additional efficiency of
+10%, while the reinforced version has an additional efficiency of +25%
and is also enchantable (not yet, but in a later version).
* The type of Wooden Planks you gain
from the Survivalist's Strainer is now determined by the chunk. Every
chunk will give you one of the six plank types. The allocation is
random, but will be the same for every world which share the same world
seed.
* Added an information page to JEI for the worm item
* Bait Pots do no longer need to be
filled with bait by hand. Instead you craft the pot and put it into the
Strainer Base next to your standard bait. Every time a piece of bait
gets consumed, there's a chance to prevent the consumption. The Bait Pot
will be damaged and breaks after 128 uses.
* Removed the Infinite Bait Pot and replaced it with a Super Worm which acts as a new infinite creative-only bait.
v3.0.1 (Also included in 1.4.2 [MC 1.9/1.10] + 2.0.1 [MC 1.11]):
-> Misc: Updated Forge. Used Versions: Forge - 14.21.0.2334 | JEI: 4.6.0.61
->Misc: Specific Items can once again be disabled in the config file (Disabling an item will remove the recipe, not the item itself)
->Fixed: Fixed a bug which allowed Non-OP-Users to reload the loot tables from within the game (Now requires OP permission level 2)
v3.0.0:
-> Misc: Updated to Minecraft 1.12. Used Versions: Forge - 14.21.0.2326 | JEI: 4.6.0.61
v2.0.0:
-> Misc: Updated to Minecraft 1.11.2. You'll need the most recent version of JEI (4.5.0) to display recipes.
v1.4.1:
-> Fixed: Fixed a crash with JEI if the normal strainer was disabled in the config.
v1.4.0:
-> Added: The mod now supports Just Enough Items (JEI). Use the "usage" key on a strainer or click the recipe button in the strainer gui to display the loot table for each strainer. Viewing the recipe of a possible drop (like dirt) will also forward to the loot table page in JEI.
-> Added: Admins can now use the command /waterstrainerreload to reload the loottable config without restarting the server. While the tooltip (Mouse Hover + Shift) gets updated immediately, Clients will have to re-join the server to re-sync the loot table page inside JEI.
-> Added: A Strainer Base will now suck dropped items from above and place them in its inventory (like Minecraft's Hopper).
-> Changed: Item drops can now be gathered from the side of a Strainer Base and Strainers + Bait can be inputted from the bottom.
-> Fixed: The Strainer Base will no longer put generated drops into the bait slot if all possible output slots were already filled.
-> Removed: Removed the Leather Armor as a possible drop from the Fisherman's Strainer (for now).
v1.3.2:
-> Added: New Item: Infinite Bait Pot = Contains infinite bait (Creative only)
v1.3.1:
-> Added: Added a tooltip in the Strainer GUI which pops up if the player uses a Bait while it's not needed.
-> Fixed: Fixed two issues with the Bait Pot recipe.
----> (1): Crafting the Bait Pot with exactly 8 worms would always lead to a fill level of 8, regardless of how filled it was before.
----> (2): You were able to add irrelevant items to the recipe and it would still be counted as valid. Those items were deleted after crafting.
-> Fixed: The Strainer will now check its own block before it changes its model to prevent an unknown issue which lead to a crash.
-> Changed: Changed the order for the Garden Trowel recipe. The ingredients need to be arranged diagonal instead of vertical.
-> Changed: Changed some textures from 32x32 to 16x16 so it fits more into vanilla minecraft (Blocks / Strainer textures are still 32x32).
v1.3.0:
-> Added: Added an errorlog for wrong config entries (Located in /logs/waterstrainer_errors.log)
-> Changed: Biome efficiency is now detected by biome tags instead of name to add compatibility with custom biomes

-> Fixed: Fixed an issue with the Bait Pot crafting recipe and custom crafting tables like CraftingCraft (hopefully)
v1.2.0:
-> Added: New Item: Efficiency Meter = Can be used to measure the efficiency of a Strainer Base
-> Added: New Item: Net = Used for crafting
-> Added: New Item: Garden Trowel = Used to collect worms

-> Added: Added Spruce, Birch, Jungle, Acacia and Dark Oak wood planks to the loottable
-> Changed: Changed flowing water effiency bonus to 10% (From 15%)
-> Changed: A lower water level now decreases the efficiency by 3% per block (From 1%)
-> Changed: The tooltip scrolls through entries in order instead of displaying a random entry every time
-> Changed: Changed the loottable syntax. It does now use categories.
-> Changed: Configs are now located in the subfolder config/waterstrainer/..
-> Changed: Changed the base idle time to 30 seconds (From 20)
-> Changed: Changed the normal strainer durability to 120 (From 180)
-> Changed: Changed the solid strainer durability to 720 (From 1080)

Whoa this is a neat idea, I like this
Hello!
So, I just wanted to say that this mod is very useful indeed and also it is really unique. I would like to recreate this mod and turn it into an add-on for Minecraft Bedrock Edition but I will need your permission.
Can you please give me permission to recreate it? I will give you credit and also I will not monetize it. If you don't allow me to do it, then it's ok.

I love your mod, it is the most fun I have ever used. I like to create farms of different things! but!
I'm doing the translation into Spanish, everything is translated but you didn't add the code lines of the description of the objects that would help me a lot to understand the mod
Is NBT data on the loot table still not supported in 1.16.5?
In reply to jay_a_why:
If you have an item with nbt data in your hand you can use the command /waterstrainer nbt_export which will print an nbt string to your /logs/latest.log file that can be used for loot entries.
Hello. Sorry for my english (i`am not english speaker). Does efficiency system work on minecraft ver 1.16 and 1.17? Whether it is necessary to build with a gap of one block and still/flowing water block?
In reply to kolay999:
Yes, the efficiency system exists, but flowing/still water is not relevant anymore.
Efficiency is calculated by:
- Strainer type = Some strainers have better efficiency
- Enchantments = Strainers can be enchanted with efficiency
- Biome bonus = Ocean, beach and river biomes are better
- Water height = Better bonus if the water level is higher
- Adjacent strainer base = You lose efficiency if you don't have a gap between strainer bases
The efficiency system can be disabled in the server config.
