Frequently asked questions

How do I start using void miners?
Craft a Void Miner block using the recipe shown in the mod wiki, place it down, supply it with power, and it will begin extracting random ores from the OreDictionary into an adjacent inventory. You don't need to be in a specific biome or dimension—it works from the void.
What's the difference between a Void Miner and a Void Pump?
The Void Miner collects random ores, while the Void Pump collects random fluids. Both work passively once powered and placed, but they output different material types into connected inventories or tanks.
How do I filter what ores the Void Miner produces?
Use the filtering system by configuring the Void Miner's filter settings—you can specify which ores you want to collect and which to destroy, allowing you to target specific resources without cluttering your storage.
Can I use Mekanism upgrades on void miners?
Yes, the mod is compatible with Mekanism machine upgrades, which can improve speed, efficiency, and other performance aspects of your Void Miner and Void Pump.
How much power do void miners need?
Void miners consume power efficiently while running, but the exact amount depends on your mod version and configuration. Check the machine's tooltip or your mod's config file for specific power requirements.
Why is my Void Miner not producing anything?
Ensure the miner is receiving power, has an inventory or pipe connected to output items, and isn't blocked by a full tank or inventory. If filters are enabled, verify that your desired ores aren't being filtered out.
Can I destroy unwanted ores automatically?
Yes—configure the filter to destroy materials you don't want, and the Void Miner will automatically destroy those items instead of outputting them, keeping your storage clean.
Do void miners work in all dimensions?
Void miners work from the void and don't require a specific location or dimension, making them a universal resource solution that functions anywhere you place them.
Can I use void miners with other mods' pipes and storage?
Yes, Void Miners output to standard inventories and tanks, so they work with pipes and storage from most mods that use compatible interfaces.
What happens if my storage is full?
If the output inventory or tank is full, the Void Miner will pause production until space is available, or unwanted items will be destroyed if your filter is configured to do so.
