Simple Processing Machines

Simple Processing Machines

A compact, vanilla‑esque tech mod that adds a small suite of straightforward processing blocks to streamline early–mid game resource handling. If you enjoy the feel of Minecraft’s base mechanics but want a touch of automation that feels familiar, this mod is for you.

Key Features:

• Crushing Station: Basic item crushing, turning stone to cobble, cobble to gravel and more.
• Mineral Processing Station: General‑purpose refining for ores and mineral products. Materials like gravel and sand can be processed into useful outputs.
• Sawmilling Station: Wood processing without overcomplication; great for getting more out of your woods, or for obtaining sawdust.
• Organic Composter: Converts organic matter into useful by‑products for farming and sustainability, primarily for creating various dirts and grasses.
• Centrifugal Separator: An un-crafting machine. Supporting modded and vanilla recipe types, not just shaped/shapeless recipes.
• Crystallizing Station: Fluid‑assisted duplication of crystal‑like items. Example recipes include water + diamond → more diamonds, and lava + nether quartz → more quartz. Balanced by fluid consumption rates.
• Atmospheric Condenser: Condenses ambient moisture into collectable fluids, useful wherever water or lava is scarce.
• Auto Crafting Station: Automated crafting of ingredients into outputs. Working with modded and vanilla recipe types, Not just shaped/shapeless crafting recipes.

All machines follow a familiar interaction pattern and aim to feel at home in any pack, from a lightly‑modded or near‑vanilla pack all the way to a kitchensink style pack. Recipes are intentionally conservative to keep progression close to Minecraft’s core balance.
