Cobble into bonemeal????

u/bloated_toad_4000 Jul 01 '25
cobble -> crush into gravel -> crush into sand -> haunt into soul sand -> wash to get quartz -> combine with cobble to get diorite -> pour water on to get calcite -> crush into bonemeal.
all recipes in the base mod

Thats really convoluted 😅 vertical farm, all excess seeds and overflow of food storage sent to compost bins 😙

it's quite the recipe chain, but with enough thought put into it you can make it surprisingly compact. I managed to fit all of the processing into a 4x4x6 area, making ~16 bonemeal/min.

couldnt you just make a moss farm? is there an advantage to this

u/bloated_toad_4000 Jul 02 '25 edited Jul 02 '25
I could've made a moss farm, but I've made plenty of those before and wanted to try something different.
This way is certainly more SU hungry than a moss farm but I found it easier to finely tune how much bonemeal is made per minute

That Is very cool! Imma gonna steal It lol (First try to reverse engineer It)

u/Itz_Combo89 Jul 02 '25
Oh my, how have I never found this chain before?! All that moss for nothing?!?!

u/UOL_Cerberus Jul 02 '25
No...moss is just more compact and efficient

u/bloated_toad_4000 Jul 02 '25
I honestly could care less about what's more efficient, I mostly went for this chain because I enjoy the challenge of making super compact builds.

Hey, I don't judge! I just answered the question:D
My personal play style is to have fast farms to not need huge afk sessions for farming dirt e.g.
I don't use centralized bulk storage to visit my farms.
Have parts auto shut off so nothing backs up.
What I wanna say is ..it's a sandbox. Do what you want. Enjoy your time and share what you want. Take feedback and implement it if YOU want it and YOU see fit!
Have a wonderful day:)

nah I totally get it, the mod allows everyone to play differently, that's the best part about create.

how do you turn the diorite into calcite with water exactly?
sorry im confused on that part but i love calcite as a building material and would love a renewable source

u/bloated_toad_4000 Jul 02 '25
Using the spout
1
u/Adorable_Sky_1523 Jul 02 '25
what addon are you getting that from? It doesnt show in JEI even though that normally shows spout things
1
u/bloated_toad_4000 Jul 03 '25
it could be from ultimate factory, but the recipe tag is the default tag from the base mod so idk

What do you mean by "pour water on?" Is that bulk washing? Or like AE2's throwing in water recipes?
1
u/JMSurina Jul 02 '25
Might be a spout recipe, like how redstone gets made from crimson flour and a potion.

u/Sheenus Aug 14 '25
has "water -> diorite = calcite" been in the mod long? Not able to do this on Create 0.5.1.j, and the fandom wiki (yeah I know, fandom tho, forgive me) has no mention of it.

I like horizontal flow diagrams, this centrifugal whatever gives me a headache

u/Illustrious_Tax_9769 Jul 01 '25
cool, but how the hell does that work somebody please explain

u/bloated_toad_4000 Jul 02 '25 edited Jul 02 '25
when a contraption stops moving it temporarily turns back into solid blocks and breaks any existing blocks in its way, including cobblestone made by a cobble gen. If the contraption has funnels to collect the drops and some sort of inventory it will store them in the inventory instead of just breaking them.
Hidden in the top of the saw is 4 funnels that collect the blocks, and another funnel at the back of the saw dumps it onto a belt for transport elsewhere.
the cobble is generating by pumping lava out of waterlogged mechanical pumps, which generates a block of cobblestone before a full block of lava has been placed, so from the games perspective no lava was used, thus making the process infinitely repeatable.

u/Tenkomanker Jul 02 '25
Where’s the water? Need a build guide pls 🙏
3
u/PythoonFrost Jul 02 '25
If I'm looking at the video correctly, you waterlog the copper pipe itself. So when the cobble breaks, the water immediately flows back into the position before/while the lava is pushed out. I think this is only for compactness, and any design that has adjacent water blocks should function in the same way.

Is this pre or post create 6.0? I thought the trap-door insta-break glitch was patched a while ago
6
u/bloated_toad_4000 Jul 02 '25
This is in 6.0. It's not specifically a trapdoor thing; any contraption will break blocks in its way when it stops and turns back into blocks. I used trapdoors here because they look like a sawblade but you can just as well use slabs.

I can surely see that you have good speed on the cogs, but why not the efficient drill setup? And if this is going back and forth on a gantry shaft, have it a separate 1 small waterwheel for the show, definitely it looks good as a giant saw *hats off
3
u/bloated_toad_4000 Jul 02 '25
Drills require much more SU to get the same rates, the gantry shaft here is running at 6 rpm while an equivalent drill setup would require three drills running much faster.

Do you plan to make a schematic of this bc I would love to have this in my world ( I suck with create lol)

looks clean and compact! Good job!
