• Added Drill Heads:
  • When put in a Mechanical Miners or a Portable Drill, acting as a Pickaxe/Shovel combo.
  • Made via casting tool metals into a Mold, crafting Diamonds with Iron Drill Head and Netherite smithing.
  • They are 50% faster than pickaxes for all tiers, x2.5 as durable for metal tiers and x2.25 as durable for Diamond / Netherite tiers.
• Added Portable Drill:
  • A new mining tool powered by Biodiesel!
  • Crafted with 1 Steel Ingot, 1 Steel Plate, 2 Copper Plates, 2 Treated Kelp and 1 Diesel Engine
  • Can't be used to mine by itself, as you need to put a Drill Head on it and have fuel in inventory.
  • Has 3 Mining Modes:
    • Single - Mines a single block.
    • Area 2x2 - Mines 2x2x1 area based on where player breaks a block. Required 3x more fuel than single mode for single use.
    • Area 3x3 - Mines 3x3x1 area based on where player breaks a block. Required 5x more fuel than single mode for a single use.
  • Has lower mining range than a regular tool.
  • Needs to be fueled with Biodiesel to work (You need a Portable Fluid Tank of Biodiesel in your inventory).
• Added Diesel Engine:
  • New rotational energy source, fueled by Biodiesel!
  • Crafted with 2 Pistons, 4 Steel Plates, Axle, Copper Pipe and Blast Furnace.
  • Can be configured to only work when powered (or not) by redstone (by default always active).
  • It's speed can be changed between 5 levels (from 1 to 5 inclusive), increasing speed by 33.3 RPM for each level.
  • The current gear/speed level also controls how much fuel it burns.
  • On gear 3, it's comparable with Steam Engine.
  • It can hold 1.2 buckets of fuel on its own, but also acts as weak pump allowing easily fuel it from other sources.
• Added Fermenter:
  • A new machine blocks, used to ferment items into liquids and other items.
  • Can be powered with rotation to speed up fermentation process, but it also works when not powered at all.
  • Crafted with Steel Machine Gearbox, Barrel and 3 Smooth Stone Slabs.
  • Currently used for production of Ethanol and Biomass.
• Added Multimeter:
  • A new item allowing you to read easily the state of blocks/machines.

  • Currently can read values such as: Redstone power, Rotation (speed and stress), Data Receiver/Provider count, Pipe Flow, Machine State and Filled Amount.
• Added Canister:
  • A universal in-inventory Fluid container, ideal for (re)moving fluids and quickly fueling something.
  • Similarly to buckets and alike, can be used to directly interact with some containers in world or within the block's container ui.
  • Crafted with 2 Steel Plates and 1 Bucket.
  • It can store up to 2 buckets/blocks worth of fluid. It also can store different types of fluid at the same time.
  • Always interacts with the top fluid, be it when extracting or interacting.
• Added Plant Oil fluid:
  • Crafted by using a press on any vanilla seeds or sunflowers.
  • Primarily a recipe ingredient.
  • Can be used with Nozzle / Pressure Fluid Gun, causing entities to get the Slippery effect:

Full Changelog: https://github.com/Patbox/PolyFactory/compare/0.10.4+1.21.11...0.11.0+26.1

• Wind Charges now affect Windmills by giving them temporary speed boost.
• Moved the guidebook implementation into separate library/mod: https://github.com/Patbox/booklet
• Fixed Pipe and Cable in walls breaking in case of Polymer-based custom wall blocks.

• Added the guidebook "Factories and you!":
  • Crafted with a Book and Iron Nugget.
  • It's a guidebook to the mod, with main goal of making it easier to pick up for new players.
  • You use it to open new ui.
  • It's still a bit early on and doesn't describe everything, but most important basics are already there.
• Added Gearshift:
  • Crafted with 4 Planks, 2 Copper Plates, 1 Steel Gear and 2 Axles.
  • Similar to Clutch, but instead of disconnecting two sides of a mechanical network, it flips it's direction.
  • Powering it with Redstone will prevent it from slipping, keeping the rotation direction as is.
  • This behaviour can be inverted with a Wrench.
• Added Deep Storage Container:
  • Crafted with 8 Steel Plates and 1 Steel Block.
  • It's a 2x2x2 multiblock (like Steam Engine) that can store items.
  • It stores 338 stacks of items (split into 8 pages of 42 stacks).
  • Pages can be changed by left-clicking the button.
  • Button's looks can be changed by having an item in cursor and then right-clicking it on the button.
  • Hoppers / Funnels / etc. do not care about pages, seeing this block as one big inventory.
• Added Item Output Buffer:
  • Crafted with 4 Steel Plates and 4 Wooden Plates.
  • It's directional storage block that acts as an extension of machine block output containers.
  • It can hold 18 stacks of items.
  • To connect it to an output of machine block, you sneak and then place it against output point of the machine (for most it's the opposite side of the input/back).
  • If you use Funnels or Hoppers on it, the output slots of connected block will also be available for them.
  • However, UI of the block will only show its own slots.
  • When opened from the front, it will allow you take items, but not place them in. When opened from the back it allows both placing and taking items.
• Tweaked Fluid Pipe logic to push fluids more evenly in pipes that have more than two neighbors.
• After locking Copper Pipes with a wrench you can now change which faces they point at.
• Slot-Aware Funnel will no longer be limited by blocks directionality when inserting items.
• Pipe with Redstone Valve will no longer place itself as inverted by default.
• Fluids are now visible in Polydex.
• Steam Engine can now be set to require redstone signal to work.
• Squeezing a Wet Sponge in Mechanical Press can now generate 1 bucket worth of water.
• Updated texture (and internally model) of Clutch to match style of Gearshift.
• Updated texture of Artificial Dye to match modern vanilla dye textures.
• Removed some invisible quads from the Conveyor models.
• Mechanical Placer should now act closer to regular player placing behaviour.
• Improved Mechanical Presses fluid output handling. Fluids can now be set as required (unused by PolyFactory).
• Fixed spelling of Faucet (from Fauced).
• Fixed Mechanical Mixer not allowing to craft recipes with fluid output even if there is enough space with input fluids taken.
• Fixed Ice and Snow not changing block-based temperature.
• Fixed Faucet block not giving you output item correctly when using last item of a stack.
• Fixed Pipes pulling fluid from waterlogged Mechanical Pumps and Copper Pipes with Redstone Valve.
• Fixed Filtered Copper Pipe rendering as a solid block rather than transparently.
• Fixed advancements not working when other mod updated the Factory Tools library.
• Fixed missing strings for list and game event in Data Extractor.

• Added Moldmaking Table:
  • Alternative way to create Unfired Clay Molds without having a base/shaping item (like ingot).
  • Uses 4 Clay Balls, 1 Clay Block or 1 other Unfired Clay Molds as an input.
  • Provides Stonecutter-like ui.
  • Crafted either with 1 Copper Ingot, 1 Plank and 2 Wooden Plates in Crafting Table or by casting 1 Ingot worth of Molten Copper on a Crafting Table.
• Added Digital Clock:
  • It sends Game Time data every tick.
  • It also displays current time.
  • Crafted with 4 Steel Plates, 1 Redstone Chip, 3 Copper Ingots and a Clock.
• Tweaked how Data Receivers handle incoming data.
  • Receiver can now specify if it can receive data instantly, allowing it to handle data from multiple sources.
  • Previously (and by default) all data was first stored and only handled by provider at the end of the world tick, allowing them to handle only single message per tick.
  • For example, Speaker can now play multiple sounds at the same time, rather than semi-arbitrarily selecting only one sound to play.
• Improved Funnel Blocks:
  • You can set max size of item stack put to/extracted from container Funnel is attached to.
    • Worth noting it won't bypass specific limit of conveyor / inventories. Conveyor still can only transport 16 items at the time.
  • You can configure it using a Wrench. You can also use the F special action to open an UI to input the value directly.
  • Changed the collision shape to be the same as Trapdoor, matching other similar blocks from the mod.
  • Model was made slightly slimmer, to match the hitbox better.
  • The block support collision shape was unchanged (aka kept as full cube), to prevent blocks in existing worlds from popping when updated.
• Tweaked Mechanical Ejector, Mechanical Fan and Conveyor code to move players more accurately and handle player's riding mobs (horses/etc).
• Changed Cable sound to Wool (most noticeable with Polymer Sound Patcher enabled).
• Placing Cabled Data Blocks without cable will now flip their facing direction when pressing shift.
• Fixed Orientable Cabled Blocks being replaced with Cable when placing cable in them.
• Fixed Item Reader not being rotated correctly visually.
• Fixed textures being added to "blocks" atlas, when they should be in "items".
• Fixed block outline allowing to see through a block for most PolyFactory blocks:
  • This was not fixed for blocks that have texture with partial alpha, such as colored lamps, Item Reader, Hologram Projector and Nixie Tubes.
  • Additionally it might improve the block rendering performance slightly.
• Fixed last slot of Mechanical Crafter not storing it's disabled property.
