Kuarry [1.12.2]

vaartis · December 6, 2019

Kuarry is a mod that adds an upgradable quarry that teleports resources to itself and replaces these resources with a placeholder block called "denatured stone" instead of digging a huge hole in the ground.

It's somewhat akin to the Ender Quarry from Actually Additions 1.

The mod is on an early stage right now and player testing is needed, but the essential parts of it are in.

Kuarry upgrades

Spoiler

Hardened/Reinforced upgrades add more energy and upgrade storage
X/Z area extension upgrades that extend the mining to one more chunk along the X or Z axis. The kuarry only scans a single chunk by default, but inserting 2 of these upgrades would increase it to 8.
Silk touch upgrade makes the kuarry mine blocks as if with silk touch
Luck I/II/III upgrades make the kuarry mines the blocks as if with a luck enchantment
Speed upgrade makes it mine faster
A custom filter to allow filtering what blocks are mined, includes two modes:
- Blacklist: disallow mining specified blocks, either adding the blocks specified to the default blacklist (some base game blocks you likely don't want to mine) or only disallowing mining the blocks specified in the filter and ignoring the default blacklist
- Whitelist: only mines the specified blocks
Fluid collection upgrade allows to collect fluids into the fluid inventory and filter them by putting buckets into the filter
XP collection upgrade allows to collect XP from some of the mined blocks into the fluid inventory
