base

New page

This guide assumes that the basics are already done, ie.
tools, food, a safe place to live and work, and access to a mine.

See also https://wiki.minetest.net/Server/SteamWorks#Tips

A public farm, public mine, public workshop and shops
that sell technic-items will make it all much more quick and easy.

As a base, i suggest a place with at least size 16x16,
preferable with free space around for expanding.

A location near spawn or otherwise easy to reach might be a bonus
(eg. for building a shop).

==Autocrafters==
For crafting items with many parts, and/or mass-production. 
Needs 5 iron, 2 mese, 2 plastic.

For a starter-base, i usually don't bother with tubes and injectors
for automating the autocrafters, 
as that will need a lot of space,
and requires more resources to build.

==Digtron==
For digging/mining. 

Parts needed:
* Crate (optionally locked)
* Combined-Inventory
* Auto-Controller
* Digger-Head
* Builder-Head
* Rotation-Axle (optional)
All those parts need a digtron-core, made of 4 iron + 1 mese-fragment. 
The crate and controller need mese, and the diggerheads need diamonds.

Small designs;
* Tunnel-digger, eg. with 2x3 digger-heads, plus 1 builder for placing lights
* Shaft-digger, eg. 2x2 digger-heads, with builders for support-column, ladder, lights

==Machines==
For planting/harvesting etc. 

Common parts:
* Mesecon-wire - needs mese
* Piston - needs Mesecon, wood, cobble, iron
* Iron gear - needs iron, chainlinks (also from iron)
* mese-torch - needs Mesecon, stick
* silicon wafer - needs sand, coal-dust
* LUA-controller - needs Mesecon, silicon-lump (from sand, iron)

Parts needed:
* Nodebreaker - Mesecon, gears, wood, stone
* Deployer - Mesecon, piston, stone, wood, chest
* BlnkyPlant - Mesecon, sapling
* Tubes - plastic (from leaves->parafin->plastic)
** Vac.Tube - Tube, sand
** SortingTubes - tube, mese-fragments
* Delayer - Mesecon, mese-torch, cobble
* Injector - iron, plastic, stick, mese / mese-block
* Self-contained injector - chest, tube, control-logic-unit
** CLU - gold-wire, copper, chromium, silicn wafer
* Nodedetector - Mesecon, iron, LUA-controller

Examples:
* Cactus/Papyrus-Harvester
:: Nodebreaker digs 2nd node of plant, moves them via tube to chest, blinkyplant triggers nodebreaker
* Mithril-Scythe-Harvester
:: Mithril-Scythe in the nodebreaker harvests+replants
* Rubbertree-Harvester - rubbertree-block with leaves+light
:: Tap in the nodebreaker to suck rubber from rubbertree
* Stone-Generator - Lava above water
:: Pickaxe in the nodebreaker to dig the generated stones
* Sapling-Mill
:: Deployer puts leave, nodebreaker digs it (with chance to get a sapling),
:: sortingtube to move leaves to deployer, saplings into chest
* Regular Harvester
:: with nodedetector looking for ripe fruit/crops to trigger nodebreaker + deployer.
:: Use a chainsaw in the nodebreaker for harvesting trees (needs recharging)
::: Surround this with vac.tubes to catch more leaves

==Powered Machines==
Common parts for LV-machines:
* Cables - needs paper, copper
* Machine-Casing - needs cast iron, brass (from copper, zinc)
* RE-Battery - needs wood, copper, tin
* Spool of copper wire - needs copper, and plastic for the spools

In short, lots of iron and copper, some paper and bits of other materials.

For ore-processing:
* Grinder - needs machine-casing & cable, diamond, desert-stone, granite
* Furnace - needs machine-casing & cable, cobble
* AlloyFurnace - (eg. for brass) - needs brickblocks (from clay-bricks)
LV-machines works, but have no upgrade-slots and no connectors for pipeworks-tubes, 
so no automation is possible.

So, wie want MV as soon as possible. 
MV also has the toolworkshop, for repairing tools. 
MV-machines in general need the corresponding LV-machine as one of the components.

* Generator (there are Hydro- , Solar-, Geothermal-Generator)
** Hydro-Generator - needs machine-casing & cable, wood, marble, diamond
* SwitchingStation - needs machine-casing & cable, copper, LV-transformer
** LV-transformer - needs iron, fiber (from glue, from saplings), copper-coils (from iron, copper wire)
* BatteryBox - needs machine-casing & cable, wood, 4x RE-Batterys

==Tools==
* Chainsaw - for harvesting whole trees, including leaves.
:: Leaves are the raw material to make oil->parafin->plastic, twigs->sticks->wood, and more saplings.

The chainsaw needs to be charged in a batterybox.

...

==Other==
* Transport
:: Tubes, Injectors, SortingTubes, LUA-tubes - to move stuff between machines
* Storage-System
:: as above, to move stuff to processing machines and/or a system of chests.

See also technic-chests, techage-chests, drawers.

==Setup==
Some essential production-lines:

* leaves -> twigs -> sticks -> wooden planks
:: wooden items: ladders, signs, chests, fences ...

* leaves -> oil-extract -> parafin -> plastic
:: pipeworks-tubes
:: also: oil-extract as fuel

* papyrus -> paper
:: books, LV-cables -> MV-cables

* ore -> grinder -> furnace
:: to get more ingots

* cobble -> stone -> stonebrick

* sand -> sandstone -> sandstonebrick

* wheat -> flour -> bread

* cotton -> wool, string
:: small, medium, large bags

...
