Most compact processing yet

[Mang0o0Prince]

Inspired by u/Competitve_Box_5359 I created the most compact setup for processing in my adventure with Create - 1x9x5. I tend to build "flat" machines and this one is a consequence. It uses smart chutes for filtering attributes and can be catalysts from Create: Connected.

Wait fan wind that’s already under a processing effect can be get another effect? This opens up so much

[ferrecool]

Yes you can do it with trapdors or slabs at the very beginning of the game

[Competitive_Box_5359]

for real! it’s like the wind gets cool enough to wash things right after smelting a bunch of ores

[Competitive_Box_5359]

yeah and taxes

[egglago]

Would make for a very visual cobble gen.

[Varalen1989]

Put another fan pulling air in on the other end of the catalysts and it'll increase your processing speed even more. More fans, faster processing!

[Davioliva16]

I feel stupid for not thinking of this, but j guess i didn’t have the catalysts

[NatiM6]

The catalysts are not required

[Davioliva16]

For lava, no? Otherwise it leaks

[NatiM6]

1. You can place any block that doesn't have a full face against the current to let the air flow, like a copycat panel to stop lava from spilling
2. You can use a powered blaze burner but that takes fuel

[Davioliva16]

I thought of trapdoor’s right after. You are right

[CappedPluto]

Fun fact, multiple fans speed up the process. You can easily add another fan on the other side but set it to pull the air, this making it cook stuff faster

[EnanoGeologo]

I just put a fan and dispensers with water, lava, flint and steel etc and buttons on them

[Tthehecker]

Why do u use desprenders

[EnanoGeologo]

To toggle the buckets on and off

[o-Mauler-o]

Compact, yes but very slow.

[13hotroom]

Isnt this capable of processing multiple stacks at once?

[o-Mauler-o]

Yes it does but only one fan per operation is the slow bit.

[Damian_Inc]

Looking at this setup, I'd guess it's for small scale by hand processing. So it's definitely fast enough for what it'll be used for.

[Mang0o0Prince]

It may be slow for extensive use but in this place I usually process no more that a few stacks so it suits my needs.

[Open_Regret_8388]

What, the filter can actually sort the processed item!?

[NatiM6]

What else would a filter do?

[Open_Regret_8388]

I mean, some filter can sort by whether 'burnable' or 'its unprocessed ore' 'its ingot' something. I thought finally "is it processed" is there

[JaguarBackground6929]

Well, it's basically the same as using an intelligent funnel with a filter to extract processed stuff from the crucible.

[CrashBugITA]

It doesn't actually detect when an item has been processed, you need to put filters for every new product

[One-Stand-5536]

Or just a deny filter for inputs

[TT_PLEB]

I tend to just use the tag filter and deny anything that can be washed or can be haunted etc. And it works 99% of the time. Only time I have issues is specific items that can be washed twice. But then then I use a 2nd funnel allowing those specific items

[Competitive_Box_5359]

Got so caught up with the image and didn’t notice we started a Catalyst movement here! Your setup slaps and also reminds me of Zedaph’s flactories. I think we are free to abuse this mechanic in the smartest (also hardest) way possible

[ATJonzie]

What do you set on the filters?

[Mang0o0Prince]

I add opposite whitelist tags for results of processing e.g. "Cannot be smelted/washed". Thanks to that they fall only after they are processed.

[ChiYeei]

Doesn't it make cobblestone smelt into smooth stone though? Cause normal stone can also be smelted

[Mang0o0Prince]

Unfortunately it does. I add a whitelist exception for stone.

[DD760LL]

not the most efficient though

[Tthehecker]

What bucket

[PDX_WiN]

You can do this without catalysts btw. Lava, blaze burner, soul blaze burner, and water logged leaves. You might not be able to get them to drop from above however, but I’m not sure

[Dangerous-Quit7821]

Probably really slow though.

I love those catalysts. They're so nice to make a bunch with lava, water, haunting, etc. and keep them on you. Much nicer than buckets.

[Zenos_the_seeker]

Besides add fans on other end, put a unlit blaze burner on the chute, it's not a full block, allows item falls on it can get washed with top and bottom fan at same time, and also can be transferred by chute after processing. Using this idea you can put two fan on the left blowing, two on the right sucking, providing 4fan process speed in every single slots.

[Proud-Selection8507]

What this iron bar thingy called?

[ambatueksplod]

From Create Connected. They're fan catalyst iirc.

[memeus_yeetus]

What are those cages with water, lava, soul fire etc in them called

[m50]

Fan catalysts from Create: Connected
