ExtractinatorForked
by moshang-ca
ExtractinatorForked converts unwanted blocks such as gravel, cobblestone and sand into useful ores, gems and other materials.
What it does
The Extractinator is a machine that accepts common surface blocks, including gravel, cobblestone, sand and dirt, and returns random but balanced resources in their place. Items are fed into it from above, and the output is collected from a chosen side. The port is a community-maintained continuation of the classic Extractinator, which was inspired by the Silt Extractinator in Terraria.
Drop tables are configurable through datapacks, so server owners can change which inputs produce which outputs without editing code. The machine works with hoppers, dispensers and other item transport systems, and it is designed for automated farms, where hoppers and pipes can feed it continuously. Lightweight processing keeps it efficient even on large farms. The mod depends on Resourceful Lib for shared data handling and on Resourceful Config for runtime configuration, and both must be installed alongside it.
Files are published for Fabric and NeoForge on Minecraft 1.21 and 1.21.1. Only the server and each player running the mod need it to be installed on their side, and the code is open source under the MIT License, with the source code and issue tracker public.
