Create: Ancient Collector

Important Note: This is my first addon adding a new machine. Crashes or broken recipes can sometimes occur. If you encounter any issues, please try restarting your game.

Create: Ancient Collector is an addon for the Create Mod that transforms resource gathering into large-scale mechanical archaeology. Say goodbye to mindless branch mining—it is time to harness rotational power to exhume forgotten mechanics and treasures buried deep within the earth.

Core Mechanics

The Ancient Collector

The centerpiece of this addon is the Ancient Collector, a heavy kinetic machine designed to patiently shave, scrape, and extract resources from the block directly beneath it without destroying it.

To automate this industrial collector, you must solve a classic Create-style logistics puzzle:

  • Output Urgency: You must transfer items out of the collector immediately. If the output slot is full, production stops but the machine continues to consume Lava and Stress Units (SU).
  • Fluid Conditioning: Pump Lava directly into the machine's internal tank to soften rock-hard strata before scraping. (Tip: Use a bottomless supply, as these machines consume lava rapidly).
  • Extreme Power: Keep the machine supplied at 64x RPM wich is 16384 su at 256 rpm

Primal-Core Collector

An upgraded version of the Ancient Collector designed to handle the toughest subterranean layers. Use this advanced machine to extract extremely rare resources such as Netherite, Deep-Core Sludge, and potentially Voidmatter-Fuel.

Shards & Extraction Recipes

This mod introduces entirely new processing lines. By positioning an Ancient Collector over specific blocks, you can scrape away at the world's layers to extract unique shards rather than standard raw minerals.

  • Flat Chance Drop: Scraping has a small, flat percentage chance to yield a rare shard.
  • Cores: Collect and process cores to automate harder resources like Diamonds and Netherite.
  • Shard Utility: Different shards can currently be used to craft Andesite, with more functional recipes coming in a future update.

Features & Integration

  • 100% Create Aesthetics: Features a system to get the items by placing the collector on top of the core or block.
  • Logistics Ready: Works perfectly alongside Create's belts, chutes, and newest packaging systems for total factory automation.
  • JEI Integration: Just Enough Items (JEI) is supported. The recipe view displays the required base block underneath the collector and the resulting item it produces.

Note: some stuff is not going to be in the mod or be added because of a bug,
