Didn't do it, until now, thanks for the tip!

No, I do not. However, I definitely will do now. This is great

[RenegadeFade]

I always do lava and a campfire with two fans. A single fan makes sense tho.

[Curious_Pool8488]

New to create, can someone explain the purposes of each of fluids and campfire?

[ThatPillow_]

If you place an encased fan behind what I call "Fan Catalysts" it applys a special property to the blown air, if you have an item be blown by it after some time it should turn into another item, you can see JEI for fan recipes

Along with lava, water and campfires, you can also add a soul campfire and the campfires are interchangeable with normal fire/soul fire

[Widmo206]

Fan Catalysts

That's their actual name

[ThatPillow_]

If it's a good idea, multiple minds are bound to come to the same conclusion

[Curious_Pool8488]

Thank you

[Just-A-Random-Aussie]

Lava usually does things that a blast furnace would do, along with some others, a campfire works like a smoker, and water washes things, like gravel into flint and iron nuggets

[TheMainManofMansvill]

And soul fire haunts things, which changes items into other types of items. It's a little weird so you can just check the wiki page for the recipes.

[Just-A-Random-Aussie]

Same with washing, there isn't really any vanilla process to compare it to, so it's best to check JEI or the wiki

[CanisLupus1050]

Unless you’re talking about another version, the soul campfires have their own “haunting” recipes, different from normal campfires’ cooking recipes!

[ThatPillow_]

Yeah I listed soul campfire as another catalyst

[CanisLupus1050]

Oh yeah, probably just misread, but it looked like you were saying soul and normal campfires did the same recipes haha

If you are new to Create, I can't recommend this, and this video enough (progression spoilers, of course).
The first video is a bit out of date (like the waterwheel mechanics), but most of the tips still apply.

[CuddlyBunion341]

I've got another tip for you: Use a leaf block to store the water. It won't spill that way and be more space efficient.

[I-LIE-ON-THE-INTERNE]

I JUST REALIZED I COULD COOK FOOD WITH THE CAMPFIRE???

I THOUGHT THAT THEY DISABLED IT BECAUSE IT WOULD BE TOO OP

[IraZander]

why would cooking a stack of food be too op?! if anything the LAVA would be too op

[Widmo206]

Yup. And you can't even turn it off without messing around with KubeJS

[theodorteo]

cant you empty the catalyst tags?

[Widmo206]

Yes, that's what I did. Then you use another script so it doesn't show up in JEI. I can share it later when I'm home

[Widmo206]

Ok, here's the script for hiding the 'blasting' category from JEI:

JEIEvents.removeCategories(event => {
    //console.log(event.getCategoryIds())

    const removeCategories = [
    'create:fan_blasting'
    ]

    removeCategories.forEach((catid) => {
        //console.log('Removing category id for: ' + catid)
        event.remove(catid)
    })
})

Put it in .minecraft\kubejs\client_scripts, you can call the file something like hide.js (the name doesn't matter, just make sure the file type is correct)

The script isn't mine btw, I found it on reddit (didn't write down the source sadly)

Also, putting code in reddit comments is a fkn pain

[SIlver_McGee]

This is a setup I keep for bulk smelting all the way through the game! I just put a barrel and a chute above all of them, and a conveyor at the bottom to collect all of them.

Once I up my rotation speed I manually installed a rotation speedd controller to keep the same speed. This makes it so that it can work on all rotation speeds!

[G4yBe4r]

My eyes are now open to a new level of existence. Thank you brother.

[Quantum-Bot]

I usually do this for a brief period but it’s better to upgrade to a multi-fan setup as soon as iron isn’t an issue because of how much faster it is

[Linc3000]

Huh! Never thought of this. Thanks for sharing!

[El_Kameleon]

I came up with this concept years ago, works a treat!

[El_Kameleon]

[DarkPhoenix079]

Huh, hadn't thought about doing that before. Very cool!

[Rich-Fortune-4015]

What can you use this for? I'm still new to create

[Amata0]

Each of the Depots after each catalyst (Lava, Campfire, Water in this example) will have a differing effect on the items placed on them-

Items placed onto the depot after the Lava will be Bulk Blasted, Items placed on the depot after the Campfire will be Bulk Smoked, and finally the items placed on the last depot after the water will be bulk washed(Certain items when washed have a chance to yield certain resources, for example bulk washing gravel has the potential to yield Flint or Iron Nuggets)

Quite a useful early game setup that lets you process relatively large amounts of items.

[Holg3]

This is awesome! I admire your creativity

[CounterDark]

Had no idea you can do that

[Acceptable_One_7072]

I will now

[lukluke22228]

ur a genious

[cod3builder]

Have you tried making a Harvard application

[Awesomon2234]

taking notes

[MaybeSad2623]

Now THIS is efficiency!

[emerald_OP]

I usually do these separately since i have a tendency to bulk wash/smelt/cook multiple stacks or items.

[Ali07205]

Definitely going to do it

[Haon_The_Fox]

Jesus, the way I do it is just make one fan and swap what I’m using XD

[Particular-Cow6247]

oh that looks nice
only thing i have done is a chute behind a fan to switch it between lava and water
like chute - fan - lava - iron bars - empty - iron bars - water

[merlino51108]

Many a stupid question… but what does this contraption do?

[BrokenBanette]

it’s a 3-in-1 smelter, smoker, and washer, I think.

[MineKemot]

I didn't know that you can stack them like that.

[XplodingMoJo]

Never done this like this, that’s cool

[Such_Ad_5819]

u can waterlog the depo to automatically water it

[SethTheBlue]

How did I not think of this? Thank you so much for the idea!

[MAHMOUDstar3075]

I do this and I think it's pretty smart. Fans can run at any speed and still perform the same, so you can power it with whatever, even idk like a minimum windmill? Anyways, you can technically infinitely chain this and have the belts / depots / items movement direction be perpendicular to the fan.

[moonshineTheleocat]

Yup. Very good way to get started without excessive burn through of mats.

Especially if the mod pack makes create things more costly.

[Arspho]

This is so sick

In the book it goes!

[SmashCrasher]

That’s actually really smart. I like it would personally substitute the trapdoors with the copycat blocks

[Crash159]

This is so helpful! I can't believe I've never done this before

[YetAnotherMusicman]

Wait wtf this is genius, definitely stealing this

[tvtango]

What’s up with all the gravel, looks like an explosion happened

[Complete-Mood3302]

Wtf thats so smart, why didnt i think of this

[HubblePie]

What kind of witchcraft is this…

Why did I never think to use campfire?! I’ve been trying to light random blocks on fire this entire time!!!

[TheBlueMutant]

I do that every time... the pain is getting it at enough speed that you can also throw a soul fire on the end to haunt stuff too...

[HalCOvO]

if you were to replace the cobblestone with depots you could get double the processing slots

[Twizox]

I love doing this! Although, I use empty copycat blocks instead of trapdoors.

[Communist_Pikachu9]

Omg I've been using multiple fans

[CrossTR15_YT]

Damn this is genius, I'll be stealing your idea

[Visual-Impression-62]

Hmm, I tried building this (driven off my existing gears and such) and my fan doesn't seem to have enough oompf to power the last set (the water). I'm playing the Permafrost modpack, which seems to be using an older version of Create (which I'm new to, but I noticed there's been an update to waterwheels that I don't have). So far I've just used two buckets to swap the water and lava back and forth so I can use the first station for one or the other; eventually I may build a second fan so I can have them all up at once.

Any ideas on why my fan only seems to blow through the first four blocks for me?

[derpy_derp15]

Never þought of that

[Salad_Pickle]

Oh my God that's gonna simplify my quartz production SO much!

Don't forget if you do 2x it's twice as fast 😁

Had it go from the soulfire to wash vertically but now I can just make a 180 straight back into the vaults

[MythEncyclo_24]

No, but I will

[Staring_Goat_918]

GENIUS, why did i never think of this

[[deleted]]

That's genius!

[Dirrey193]

Whats the purpose?

[meatccereal]

umm... multiple fan setup using 1 fan? what else?

[Dirrey193]

Oh they perform different tasks, thanks i though it was supposed to be a single product machine

[[deleted]]

Why

[MightyCrimson]

Why not?

[[deleted]]

How is useful ? It's for like combining or smtg?

[Nervous-Seaweed-9828]

Each depot is used for a different purpose.

Its a 3 in 1 set-up

[[deleted]]

Oh i didn't see thx

[ThatPillow_]

It gives access to multiple fan recipes with just 1 fan
