What does the Better Magnets Mod do?
It adds tiered magnets that instantly pull items and experience orbs into your inventory, even through walls or lava. It also adds anti-magnet countermeasures for automation and PvP.
What items and blocks does Better Magnets add?
It adds five tiers of magnets (tiers 1-4 and an ultimate tier), an Anti-Magnet block, and an Anti-Magnet item. The magnets can also work as a Bauble.
What is the radius of each magnet tier?
By default, the first tier has a radius of 2 blocks, and each tier above adds 2 more, up to 14 blocks for the ultimate tier. Each tier's radius is configurable.
How do I turn my magnet on or off?
You can enable or disable your magnet with a keybind, and it tells you in chat which one you just did.
Does the magnet work through walls or lava?
Yes, the magnets instantly suck items into your inventory through walls or lava without losing the item. They also work on XP orbs.
What does the Anti-Magnet block do?
When placed, it stops items within 5 blocks above or below it from being sucked up by a magnet. It is not a tile entity, so you can place as many as you like without causing lag, but it does not stop XP orbs.
What does the Anti-Magnet item do?
When it is in a player's inventory, it turns off all magnets they have, meaning they must turn them back on to use them. Throwing it near someone makes their magnet suck it up, which immediately disables their magnet.
What Minecraft versions does Better Magnets support?
The mod is available for Minecraft 1.12.2 and 1.11.2.
Can I configure the magnets?
Yes, each magnet tier is configurable. The wiki also has a Configuration section.
Does Better Magnets work as a Bauble?
Yes, the magnets work as a Bauble.
