With BuildCraft Factory, players get the machines that process and move resources in BuildCraft, including a Mining Well, an Auto Workbench and a Flood Gate.

What it does

The factory module adds automated machines to BuildCraft. Among them are the Mining Well, a 1x1 vertical mining block, a liquid extraction block, a low-tier automatic crafting block called the Auto Workbench, the Flood Gate and the Distiller Heat Exchanger. A smaller set of single-block machines is also included in the submodule. BuildCraft Core is required, so it must be installed alongside this mod.

The project ships as a complete mod in a single JAR, and a multi-JAR submodule format is available as well. Both are published for Forge and ModLoader, across 14 release versions from b1.5_01 to 1.12.2. Because the environment is client and server, the server and every player need the mod. The license is a custom one, and the project is not open source, though the source code and issue tracker are public.

Key features

  1. Mining Well

    A machine that mines the area below it, feeding the resources it collects into a connected system.

  2. Vertical mining block

    A 1x1 block that mines straight down, useful where a wider mining machine would not fit.

  3. Auto Workbench

    A low-tier block that performs crafting automatically from the items supplied to it.

  4. Liquid extraction and Flood Gate

    A block that pulls liquids out of their source, and a Flood Gate that controls how liquid moves through the system.
