BuildCraft Refabricated

The mod is an unofficial Fabric port of BuildCraft, rebuilt for modern Minecraft from the 8.0.x era of the original toolkit. Its quarry clears a marked area down to bedrock and forwards everything it finds through pipes, while a Mining Well drills one shaft straight down. Pumps drain water, lava and oil from the world, and oil pools and springs appear naturally, so an oil network can start from the terrain itself.

Pipes carry items and fluids, and tanks can be stacked vertically into a single fluid storage column. Flood Gates fill an area with whatever fluid they are given, and item-catching blocks pass dropped items to the inventory below. Automation is driven by engines and gates: gates can read what lies around them, a full tank or an overheating engine, an empty chest or a fire, and act on it. Pipe wires carry signals between gates and machines, so they can switch each other off without redstone. An Auto Workbench crafts from recipes using ingredients delivered by pipe.

The mod is published for Fabric alone, with 9 release versions covering 1.21 – 26.3, and it runs on the client and the server. Fabric API is required, and Just Enough Items (JEI), Roughly Enough Items (REI) and Tech Reborn are optional.
