Mekanism Mod FAQ

Steel is produced by combining Iron with Enriched Iron in an Enriching Factory or via the Metallurgic Infusing recipe type using Infused Carbon. You can also find Steel Ingots as outputs from the Metallurgic Infusing and Combining recipe types.

Enriched Iron is made by processing Iron through the Enriching recipe type in an Enriching Factory. It is a key intermediate for producing Steel and other advanced materials.

Place the Jetpack in a Chargepad or connect it to a Universal Cable, Mechanical Pipe, or Energy Cube to receive energy. The Armored Jetpack functions the same way but provides additional protection.

Use Universal Cables to transfer energy between machines, Energy Cubes, and Induction Cells. Mechanical Pipes move items, Pressurized Tubes move chemicals, and Logistical Transporters move items over longer distances.

Use a Basic, Advanced, or Creative Chemical Tank to store chemicals like Brine or Bio Fuel. Pressurized Tubes connect chemical tanks to machines that consume or produce chemicals.

Connect the Chemical Tank to a machine that outputs chemicals using Pressurized Tubes, or use a Chemical Oxidizer, Chemical Infuser, or Chemical Washer to produce chemicals directly into the tank.

Lithium is obtained through the Chemical Dissolution Chamber and Chemical Crystallizer processing chain, typically starting from ores processed in a Chemical Injection Chamber. It is used in the Antiprotonic Nucleosynthesizer and other advanced recipes.

Radiation is generated by Uranium-based materials and the Antiprotonic Nucleosynthesizer. To reduce radiation, avoid storing raw Uranium or Antimatter Pellets in open areas and use proper containment like Block of Uranium or Block of Lead shielding.

Bronze is made by combining Copper and Tin in a Metallurgic Infusing or Combining recipe. Bronze Ingots, Nuggets, and Dusts can all be produced and used in crafting recipes.

Use an Advanced Tier Installer on a Basic machine to upgrade it to the Advanced variant, such as Basic Enriching Factory to Advanced Enriching Factory. Tier Installers work on factories, energy cubes, tanks, and other upgradable blocks.

Antimatter Pellet is produced in the Antiprotonic Nucleosynthesizer, which requires significant energy input and produces radiation. It is used in advanced crafting recipes and must be handled with proper containment.

Use Logistical Transporters for item movement, Mechanical Pipes for fluids, Pressurized Tubes for chemicals, and Universal Cables for energy. Each pipe type connects to specific machine ports for input and output.
