DvergerAutomation

DvergerAutomation

Dverger Automation is about making your experience through the game less full of friction, without giving you a mobile automated vacuum.

The goal of this mod is to add progressive automation for repetative tasks. Some of the automation will be expensive. But you will feel like you earned each improvement.

Features

Autosorter - Craft, Build and store

Built with the Hammer, in the Crafting category, near a Forge (Rrequirements are all configurable):

| Material | Amount | |---|---| | Stone | 20 | | Bronze | 8 | | Greydwarf eye | 20 | | Ectoplasm | 4 |

The autosorter can be upgraded with Surtling cores to increase its range. It has 4 core slots, and configurably requires at least 1 core to work. There is a front hopper on the machine that allows depositing items for it to store into chests. Items not sorted will be left in the inventory. Its Deposit Selected button moves your pack straight in. The [C] button beside it picks which kinds of item go, and whether your hotbar and quick slots (EquipmentAndQuickSlots, AzuExtendedPlayerInventory or ExtraSlots) are included. Equipped gear always stays on you.

Carts and boats in range count as storage too, so you can craft straight out of the cart you just pulled up to the workshop. They are only ever crafted from, never sorted into, and each can be turned off (Craft From Carts, Craft From Boats).

Furnace Hopper - Automate your Furnanaces and Kilns

Built with the Hammer, in the Crafting category, near a Forge (Rrequirements are all configurable):

| Material | Amount | |---|---| | Stone | 30 | | Iron | 12 | | Bronze | 8 | | Coal | 20 |

The furnace hopper allows you to automatically process wood, and metals in nearby charcoal kilns, smelters and blast furnaces. It has a relatively short range. Other processing stations (windmills, spinning wheels, eitr refineries and modded ones) are left alone unless you turn them on: the [C] button beside its deposit button shows every type of station in range, and a click switches each one on or off for that hopper. But can be upgraded with up to 6 surtling cores. Configurably 1 core is required for it to turn on. Each core increase processing speed of managed furnaces/kilns. Bars and coal go into the hopper as soon as they are made. In multiplayer, the game running the hopper also takes over the stations it feeds, so every one of them keeps going.

Lighter - Keep every fire burning

Built with the Hammer, in the Crafting category, near a Forge (requirements are all configurable):

| Material | Amount | |---|---| | Silver | 10 | | Wood | 5 | | Coal | 40 | | Iron | 5 |

The Lighter can provide fuel to any light source, or fire within range.

• Range: 64 metres by default.
• Emptiest first: when the tank runs short, the pieces closest to going out are filled first.
• Never overfills: each piece gets only what you could add by hand, and only on the game running both the Lighter and that piece,

so two players can never top up the same fire at once. In multiplayer the Lighter takes over the pieces it fills, as the Furnace Hopper does with its stations.

• Hover it to see how many pieces it is tending, and which fuels it is missing. Fires the world placed itself and fires that are

switched off are left alone.

• The Autosorter never files anything into its tank, but crafting from storage can draw from it. Vanilla's Place stacks tops the tank up.
• Smoke: while it is working, all three of its upright pipes give off wisps of smoke, and the centre column also puffs out the same

smoke a fire does. Like a fire's, that smoke gathers under a roof, and with no way out it can choke nearby fires and smoke players out. The server setting Physical Smoke turns it off and leaves only the wisps.

Its settings are under Dverger Lighter: range, seconds between passes, tank rows, physical smoke, and a list of pieces it should never fuel (for example piece_oven or piece_bathtub).

Seeking Table - Find and fetch from any chest

Built with the Hammer, in the Crafting category, near a Black Forge (requirements are all configurable):

| Material | Amount | |---|---| | Black marble | 20 | | Yggdrasil wood | 10 | | Copper | 10 | | Refined eitr | 10 |

A vortex of dverger magic the seeking table can retrieve items from anywhere in the nearby area.

• Search by name or by words in an item's description. With Epic Loot installed, start with @ to search enchantments,

exactly as on the enchanting table: @attack speed, fire finds gear carrying both.

• Filter by item type with the icons down the right-hand side.
• Take an item with a click (one stack), shift-click (choose how many) or ctrl-click (everything that fits).

On a controller: A or X for a stack, LT+A to choose, LT+X for everything, and click the left stick to search.

A brief blue line runs from the orb to each chest an item came out of. Each of the four pillars takes a Black Core, and every core reaches further. Boats, carts and Furnace Hopper storage in range are listed too; each can be turned off.

The Ground items switch under the item types also lists everything lying on the ground within the table's range, added to
