Ender IO Addons Mod — Reference
Machines
The heart of the mod consists of several high-tier machines, each serving a distinct purpose in a technical base.
The Drain & Food Drain
The Drain acts as a localized pump for fluid management.
- The Drain: Collects any fluid that flows into it. It must be placed at the lowest point of a fluid pool to be effective. It is highly efficient for clearing out large bodies of liquid or automating fluid collection from world-gen sources.
- Food Drain: A specialized upgrade of the standard Drain. It is "food-grade coated," allowing it to safely process and collect Milk from the world (e.g., from cows placed above it).
Utility and Tools
Beyond heavy machinery, the mod adds several utility items for base management and exploration.
AgriCraft Farming Station
A specialized version of the Ender IO Farming Station designed specifically for compatibility with the AgriCraft mod. It automates the planting, tending, and harvesting of AgriCraft crops on crops sticks, ensuring that the specific mechanics of that mod (like seed mutation and spread) are respected by the automation.
Decoration Blocks
The mod adds 16 decoration blocks to help players maintain a consistent industrial look.
| Block Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Machine Texture Blocks | 6 blocks featuring standard Ender IO machine textures (Up, Down, Side, Back). |
| Soul Machine Blocks | 6 blocks featuring Soul Machine textures. |
| Machine Chassis | A decorative version of the machine chassis that behaves as a full block. |
| Red Machine Block | A block using the Capacitor Bank's red texture. |
| Broken Spawner | A decorative, non-functional version of the Powered Spawner. |
| Invisible Block | A completely transparent block for creative building and lighting tricks. |
Mechanics and Recipes
Automation Logic
Most machines in Ender IO Addons follow the standard Ender IO side-configuration logic. Using a Yeta Wrench, players can configure sides to Pull, Push, or Disabled for items, fluids, and power.
Recipe Overview
While recipes vary by modpack, the standard 1.7.10 recipes typically involve: * Machine Chassis: The base for most machines. * Capacitors: Used to upgrade the speed and energy storage of the Cobbleworks, Niard, and Impulse Hopper. * Dark Steel: Frequently used in the construction of the Drain and reinforced components.
Configuration
The mod includes a configuration file (EnderIOAddons.cfg) that allows server owners to:
* Adjust the RF consumption of machines.
* Enable or disable specific machines.
* Configure the Loot Recycler's point values for different items.
* Toggle the "trash can" functionality of the Portal Tank.
