Multiblocked2 FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

How do I start building a custom machine?
Craft the Multiblocked2 editor book, place it in the world, and right-click it to open the visual editor. From there you can design your machine's structure, define what blocks it needs, and set up its recipes without writing any code.
What's the difference between a multiblock structure and a recipe?
The structure is the physical arrangement of blocks in the world that forms your machine. Recipes are what the machine does when activated—they define inputs, outputs, and processing time.
Can I use items and fluids in the same recipe?
Yes, Multiblocked2 supports mixed recipes with both items and fluids as inputs and outputs. You define each input/output slot in the recipe editor and specify whether it accepts items, fluids, or energy.
How do logic nodes work?
Logic nodes are visual blocks you connect together to create machine behavior without coding. Each node performs a simple function (like checking if an item is present), and you wire them together to make your machine respond to conditions and trigger actions.
Do I need KubeJS to make complex machines?
No, the logic node graph system replaces the need for KubeJS. You can build complex machine behaviors entirely through the visual node editor.
Will my custom machines work with Create, Mekanism, or Botania?
Yes, Multiblocked2 has built-in support for items, fluids, and energy from these mods. Your machines can accept and output their materials directly.
Can I make my machine only work under certain conditions?
Yes, use logic nodes to set conditions—for example, you can make a machine only run when it has enough power, or only accept specific item types. Connect condition nodes to your recipe to control when it activates.
What happens if I make a mistake in my machine design?
You can edit your machine at any time by placing the editor book again and opening your machine's configuration. Changes take effect immediately without needing to rebuild the structure.
Do custom machines lag the server?
Multiblocked2 is designed to be efficient, but performance depends on how many machines you run and how complex their logic is. Avoid excessive logic nodes or very frequent recipe checks if you notice lag.
Can other players use machines I've created?
Yes, once you've built and saved a custom machine, anyone on the server can place and use it. The machine's logic and recipes are stored and shared automatically.
