Amnesia's Extractors
by GhostRX
Amnesia's Extractors adds machines that gather ores automatically, with three tiers that each add a richer set of drops.
What it does
Extractors are placed on the ground and set to a biome or dimension. Each one produces a weighted mix of ores: the Basic Extractor yields coal, raw iron, raw copper, raw gold and redstone, while the Upgraded Extractor adds lapis, amethyst and diamond. Drops depend on the setting, so a mesa, a mountain, the deep dark, an amethyst biome and the Nether each give a different table of materials, including emeralds, echo shards, gold nuggets, quartz and netherite scrap.
Each extractor drops something every 20 seconds. Upgrading a machine takes an Extractor Template, which is found only in underground structures for the Upgraded Extractor and only in Nether structures for the Nether Extractor. The Basic Extractor is crafted from iron, the Upgraded Extractor is made by combining a Basic Extractor with an iron block at a smithing table, and the Nether Extractor is made by combining an Upgraded Extractor with a gold block at a smithing table.
The mod is published for Forge only, for 1.20.1, and runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
Key features
Biome-based ore tables
Each extractor's output depends on the biome or dimension it is set to, so the same machine yields different materials.
Three extractor tiers
Basic, Upgraded and Nether Extractors each add a larger set of drops, from coal and raw metals to diamonds and netherite scrap.
Timed drops
Each extractor produces one item every 20 seconds, with the drop chosen from its weighted table.
Smithing-table upgrades
Upgraded and Nether Extractors are made at a smithing table from a lower tier, with an iron block or gold block as the material.

How it compares
Raw Iron Block can be heated is also a Forge 1.20.1 mod, with the same client and server environment, and it is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source. Iron Coals is open source under the MIT License and runs on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge for 1.20 – 1.21.11, so it covers more loaders and versions than Amnesia's Extractors.
