Fluid Generators

Lava Generator

How to build it! Red is optional place for a redstone controller or fluid export; however, one of those places must be a heater no matter what. The white must be air.

This is the best configuration of the lava generator with 1 controller and 5 storage tanks.

Just like a normal forge mod. Nothing special.

Info

Have you ever wished that lava was renewable like water? Are you tired of having to go to the Nether or deep underground to look for some? If you answered yes to either of them (Or if you did not) then this is the mod for you!

Build a multiblock smelter to melt stone into lava. It all fits in a 3x3x3 cube. Click on the heater with a flint and steel, or fire charge then cobblestone to start. Then wait until the lava is ready. Click on the collector with a bucket to extract it. You can use an optional redstone controller to help automate the process which will only occur if the controller is powered. A fluid export can also be in the same place as a redstone controller. See image 2 in the pictures for how to build it.

You can also use a empty collector to obtain water from wet sponges, clay, all ice types, and all leaves. You will also get dry sponges and hardened clay (respectively). Just place the block to be dried on top. Click on the collector with a bucket to extract it.

If it is raining or thundering, empty collectors will fill with water. If combined with an observer, this can make a weather sensor.

Hoppers can input cobblestone.

Export pipes can pump fluids from a collector on the side of them or above into a tank on the sides or below.

Storage tanks can store lava and water. Use a filled bucket to put fluids in and an empty one to take it out.

There is also a caution patterned blast-resistant block.

All blocks can be broken with either a wrench or an iron or better pickaxe.

An in game wiki is coming soon.

It it meant to be like Charcoal Generators.

Bugs

The animation for the melting process is not how I wanted. It will be fixed soon.

Very complex

Could you post a tutorial for multi-block structures?

It seems that fluid generators and charcoal generators are incompatible, I think that it's caused by the wrench, because it's present in both of the mods.
Also, I think that you should make the generator give the lava bucket to the player instead of dropping it

I will look into the wrench thing, I was pretty sure it should work since the crafting is different. Multiple mods can have similar named items I think.
As for the bucket, it is to prevent the loss of items if the player's inventory is full. I tried testing for air in the inventory, but it actually tested for a block of air which you can not get.

If the inventory is full it should drop the item on the ground

I will look into it; however, It may not be released on mcreator if/when it is fixed. :/

wait......you became wiki contributor now

yep
https://mcreator.net/wiki/how-make-multi-block-machine
page is still in development

your mod is amazing, i would love if you could make the mcr file available so others can use your procedures to learn more, or even create a tutorial on how to do it

I will post a screen shot tutorial at least, but I do not want people to just repost my work under their name. If the moderators agree delet any identical reposts, I will post the mcr file

i understand your point of view, so just you post the tutorial and even if you couldn't, thanks anyway

I just checked out your mod. Since it seems you are already a good modder and will not just repost it, I will give YOU the mcr file. Maybe we could combine our mods for even more automation. Obsidian, normal stone. Can I have your email to send you a private link to download it?

Of course, I would marvel at the idea of exchanging knowledge with another person to improve our mods
