Chronos Yield Nodes FAQ

Open your crafting table and look up the recipe for the generator tier you want—the wiki shows all crafting recipes organized by category (Mineral, Wood, Stone, Color, Nature). Gather the required materials, place them in the crafting grid as shown, and craft your first node.

Yes, that's the core feature of this mod—generators continue producing items based on real-world time even when you close the game or log off the server. Your resources will be waiting in the storage buffer when you return.

Higher tier generators require more expensive crafting materials but produce items faster and store more in their internal buffers (ranging from 64 to 1024 items depending on tier). Choose a tier based on how quickly you need resources and how much storage you want.

Look directly at the generator to see its progress on the action bar HUD, then left-click to take one item or shift-click to grab a full stack. You can also attach hoppers to any side of the block to automatically pipe items into chests.

Check the action bar HUD when looking at the block to see the production progress percentage—if it's very low, you may have chosen a low tier generator or the buffer might be full. Refer to the production monitoring guide for troubleshooting steps.

Yes, attach hoppers to any face of the generator block and they will automatically extract items from the storage buffer into connected chests or other containers. This lets you set up passive collection without manual clicking.

Mineral nodes produce ores and raw gems, Wood nodes yield different tree logs, Stone nodes supply building materials, Color nodes generate all sixteen dye shades, and Nature nodes produce items like amethyst, moss, honeycomb, and glow lichen.

There's no hard limit in the mod itself, but placing many generators may impact server or client performance depending on your hardware—the tier selection guide covers planning multi-generator farms efficiently.

Yes, generators are designed to work in both Skyblock and regular survival gameplay, making them especially useful in Skyblock where traditional mining is limited or impossible.

The generator stops producing new items until you collect some from the buffer—either by clicking the block, shift-clicking for a stack, or letting hoppers extract items into connected containers.
