Ironheart Pump Drills
Steam-age muscle, neon-city brains. Ironheart pump drills sit on the ground and pump the ore deposit beneath them, down to 200 m, without touching the terrain. No drilling ships, no craters: just power and conveyors.

Every pump gets its full output, no matter how close together you build them.
Using a pump
- Large grid, from 1x1x1 (Mk I) to 2x3x2 (Mk V). Place it on the ground of a static grid (it may sink into the terrain a bit).
- Give it power and connect a conveyor to one of its side ports.
- It picks the most valuable ore under it. The terminal shows the deposit, its depth and the output.
- Ore filter in the terminal: Whitelist (pump only the ores you pick) or Blacklist (never pump them). Kept in the block's Custom Data, so it can also be edited there.
- Status lights: green pumping, yellow inventory full, no ore or none the filter allows, red off, unpowered, not grounded or not static, orange damaged.
Costs
Steel, construction parts, large tubes, metal grids and motors, more each tier, plus superconductors: Mk II 20, Mk III 100, Mk IV 300, Mk V 1,000.
Features
- Construction stages while you weld (skid and frame, then machinery, then the finished lit pump)
- Custom animated pumpjack: riveted brass walking beam, horsehead and polished rod, crank with counterweights, a glowing ore line through a separator column into an ore storage bin behind each conveyor port, engine house and exhaust stack
- Tier glow colours: amber, green, cyan, violet, crimson
- Vanilla conveyor ports on the sides (bottom row) and underneath, with terminal panels
- Own toolbar icon for every tier
- Multiplayer and dedicated server ready: ore is produced on the server
