Automating Resource Production with the Reactor Core

Manual harvesting is effective for small gardens, but expanding into large-scale production requires passive automation. Croparium includes the Reactor Core block to handle harvests inside your base without constant player intervention.

Setting Up the Reactor Core

To run an automated crop field:

1. Lay out your dedicated mod farmland plots with your planted resource crops.

2. Place a Reactor Core block nearby your crop fields.

3. Ensure the Reactor Core is positioned in close proximity to the plants you want managed.

In advanced setups, placing a Reactor Core atop base structures such as diamond block pyramids provides a centralized hub for your resource plots.

Managing Automated Output

Once the Reactor Core is positioned nearby, it oversees automated crop production throughout the immediate area:

1. Allow the crops to grow to full maturity.

2. The Reactor Core automatically manages crop production within its vicinity, removing the need to manually right-click every mature plant.

3. Combine this layout with your regular base transport and storage systems to funnel generated ores, Nether materials, and mob drops into chests effortlessly.
