About this project

What does Useless-Generators add?

Fluid-fueled power generation and multiblock machinery for the Useless ecosystem on Minecraft 1.20.1 Forge.

Progress through generator tiers, connect your machinery to ME networks, and build the Cosmic Heart multiblock for late-game production.

Features

Tiered Generators — Generate energy using supported fluid fuels.
Cosmic Heart Multiblock — A large structure with dedicated control and status interfaces.
ME Network Integration — Connect supported hatches for resource and energy automation.
Staff-Assisted Construction — Build and dismantle supported structures with the staff.
Operating Mode Selection — Switch the Cosmic Heart between power generation and mineral generation.

Mineral Generation

Mineral mode automatically identifies registered ores and raw materials and inserts them directly into an available ME network.

Produces up to 2.1 billion of each supported mineral per tick.
Consumes 0.1 mB of Useful Matter fuel per second for the entire multiblock.
Preserves unused prepaid fuel credit.
Requires a formed structure, enabled operation, and an available ME storage destination.

Requirements
