What is Additional Enchanted Miner?

2 parts

Additional Enchanted Miner adds advanced miners in the spirit of BuildCraft's quarry. The twist is that these machines can carry enchantments, so they can collect resources automatically with Fortune or Silk Touch.[1]

It's a good fit if you want hands-off mining and don't want to dig out every ore yourself. Fortune or Silk Touch on the machine means you choose how the resources come out.[1]

What to know before you build

  • Fluids get removed automatically. The QuarryPlus machine does this with Pump Plus or a Pump Module. The more advanced Chunk Destroyer removes fluids without any settings.[1]
  • The machines accept both EU and Forge Energy, so you can power them from either kind of setup.[1]
  • The mod requires Scalable Cat's Force on every platform.[1]

In this pack

The pack ships Additional Enchanted Miner 21.1.162, the NeoForge build for Minecraft 1.21.1. The mod has been in the pack since version 2.25 or earlier.[2]

Unverified The sources don't say where the mod fits in the pack's progression. No quests or ATM Star path steps involving it were found, so treat it as an optional mining tool rather than a required milestone.

How do you get started with Additional Enchanted Miner?

5 parts

Additional Enchanted Miner adds automatic miners in the style of BC's quarry, and they can collect resources with Fortune or Silk Touch. The machines accept EU and Forge Energy, so plan a power source before anything digs. Here is the order I'd go in, starting with the item most other recipes are built from.[1]

Make a Marker Plus first

Start with Marker Plus. Most of the mod's other recipes here, including the pump, several modules and the Enchantment Mover, call for an item from the markers tag. Having one on hand means you're ready for the later steps.[3]

Upgrade to a Flexible or Chunk Marker

Both Flexible Marker and Chunk Marker can be crafted from a plain Marker Plus. Each can also be crafted from the other, so you can switch between them. The Flexible Marker's tooltip shows the area it covers, so you can check what you've selected.[3][4]

Craft the Quarry Plus

The Quarry Plus is the main machine. In this pack its recipe is added through KubeJS, so check the recipe below rather than relying on what you've seen in other packs.[3]

Deal with fluids

Fluids are removed automatically when the quarry uses a pump module, and the quarry screen has a checkbox to remove fluids in the area. If you'd rather have a standalone option, the Advanced Pump goes above a fluid block. Its GUI has a toggle: on sends fluids to void, which is useful for getting rid of water, and off moves them to a tank.[1][3][4]

How does Additional Enchanted Miner work?

6 parts

Additional Enchanted Miner is a set of miners in the style of the old BuildCraft quarry, and they can carry enchantments. That means you can mine with Fortune or Silk Touch automatically. The main machine is the Quarry Plus, and everything else here either supports it or feeds it. The sources describe the machines only in broad strokes, so I'll stick to what is confirmed.[1][3]

Getting the Quarry in this pack

The pack adds its own recipe for the Quarry Plus. It is a custom recipe, not the mod's own, and it uses high-end materials from other mods. Here is the exact in-pack recipe:[3]

Power

The machines accept EU and Forge Energy. The mod's own tooltips also mention a creative generator that works only for the Quarry.[1][4]

noEnergy is false, so the pack does not use the No Energy mode and your machines need real power. The Quarry's energy buffer, powerMap.quarry.maxEnergy, is 10,000. This is the mod default, not a pack change.[5]

The Quarry has separate cost settings for its different jobs, and the pack keeps the ones below at their defaults. Building the frame (powerMap.quarry.makeFrame) is 15. Moving the head (powerMap.quarry.moveHeadBase) is 1. Breaking a block (powerMap.quarry.breakBlockBase) is 25, and breaking a fluid block (powerMap.quarry.breakBlockFluid) is 125. Collecting experience (powerMap.quarry.expCollect) is 2.5.[5]

Enchantments make mining more expensive. The Silk Touch coefficient (powerMap.quarry.breakSilktouchCoefficient) is 4, and the Fortune coefficient (powerMap.quarry.breakFortuneCoefficient) is about 1.587401. Silk Touch has the higher coefficient, so it costs more.[5]

Watch out: The Advanced Quarry is switched off in this pack: enableMap.adv_quarry is false, where the mod default is true. Its power settings still exist in the config, for example powerMap.advQuarry.maxEnergy is 50,000, but the machine is disabled. The mod's tooltip for a disabled item reads "DISABLED. Please enable it in config."[4][5]

Setting the mining area

Area selection uses markers. The pack has the Marker Plus, the Flexible Marker and the Chunk Marker, and the config enables both the Flexible Marker and the Chunk Marker. The Flexible Marker's tooltip shows the area it covers as two sets of coordinates, and it can also show a remote position and dimension.[3][4][5]

The Quarry Y Setter is also in the recipe list, and it is made from a marker. The sources don't explain how it works in the machine.[3]

Fluids

Fluids are handled by a pump, either a pump attachment or the Pump Module. The Quarry's screen has a checkbox to remove fluids in the area. The Quarry Pump Module is enabled in the pack.[1][3][4][5]

The Advanced Pump is a standalone pump. You place it above a fluid block. Its GUI has a delete toggle. When it is on, fluids are sent to the void, which is handy for getting rid of water. When it is off, fluids go into its tank.[3][4]

Modules and attachments

Several modules change how a machine behaves. Tooltips describe the attachment blocks as things you place next to the machine.[4]

Placing machines and other settings

The Placer Plus changes mode when you right click it with a Redstone Torch. The Remote Placer is crafted from the Placer Plus.[3][4]

A few more pack settings are worth knowing. Chunk loading in the machines is on (enableChunkLoader). Deepslate ores are not converted to normal ores (convertDeepslateOres is false). removeCommonMaterialsByChunkDestroyer is true, so the common base blocks of the Overworld and the Nether are removed from what the Chunk Destroyer obtains.[5]

How do you progress through Additional Enchanted Miner?

4 parts

The recipe sources for this mod show no named tiers, so this section follows the order the in-pack recipes point to: markers first, then the Quarry Plus, then the modules and the helper machines.[3]

Step 1: Markers

Start with the Marker Plus. Most of the other recipes here ask for any item from the mod's markers tag, so this is the item you will craft most.[3]

Step 2: The Quarry Plus

The Quarry Plus uses a recipe that the pack adds through KubeJS, so don't assume the mod's default recipe applies here. Check the recipe below before you plan your route.[3]

Step 3: Quarry modules

Each module recipe needs a marker of some kind, so keep a few on hand. Here is what each module is in this pack:[3]

Step 4: Support machines and tools

These items round out your setup. They all need a marker too, except the Remote Placer, which is built from the Placer Plus instead.[3]

Tip: Make a few markers early. Every module recipe and most of the support items ask for one, so having spares keeps your crafting moving.[3]

How does Additional Enchanted Miner work with other mods?

1 part

The clearest link between Additional Enchanted Miner and the rest of the pack is how you get its main machine. The pack adds its own KubeJS recipe for Quarry Plus, so it is not a standalone mod craft. The ingredients come from Allthemodium, Just Dire Things and Productive Lib.[3]

This shaped recipe is added by the pack through KubeJS.

Because the recipe is pack-defined, go by the one shown above and not by what you may remember from the mod elsewhere. It combines Allthemodium items, Just Dire Things items and a Productive Lib upgrade item.[3]

Mods it depends on

Outside the pack recipe, the mod's own project page lists Scalable Cat's Force as a requirement on all platforms. Its machines accept EU and Forge Energy.[1]

Which Additional Enchanted Miner config options matter?

4 parts

Everything lives in one file, config/quarryplus.toml. Most of it is untouched mod defaults, but the pack changes two switches, and those matter more than anything else here.[5]

What the pack changed

Watch out: Because the Advanced Quarry and the bedrock-removal module are both switched off in this pack, don't plan a build around either one.[5]

Machines and modules that stay on

The basic quarry (enableMap.quarry), the mover, both markers (chunk and flexible), and the exp, filter and pump modules are all enabled, the same as the mod default. enableMap.repeat_tick_module stays false, which is also the default.[5]

enableChunkLoader is true, so machines can use the chunk loader, as in the default.[5]

Energy settings

noEnergy is false, so your machines still need power. The pack hasn't turned on the free-energy mode.[5]

The quarry's power numbers all match the mod defaults. powerMap.quarry.maxEnergy is 10,000, powerMap.quarry.breakBlockBase is 25, powerMap.quarry.makeFrame is 15 and powerMap.quarry.breakBlockFluid is 125.[5]

The Advanced Quarry also has its own power entries, such as powerMap.advQuarry.maxEnergy at 50,000. They are all at default, and the machine is disabled in this pack anyway, so you can ignore them.[5]

rebornEnergyConversionCoefficient is 0.0625, which is the default. The file's own comment marks it as Fabric only.[5]

What changed in Additional Enchanted Miner between versions?

All the Mods 10 8.1 ships Additional Enchanted Miner 21.1.162. The mod has been in the pack since All the Mods 10 2.25 or earlier. The pack changelogs list it under the name QuarryPlus, and its registry namespace is quarryplus.[2][6]

The pack changelogs only record version bumps for this mod. They don't say what changed inside each update, so I can't tell you about new features, fixes or balance changes from them. Here is every bump they list, from oldest to newest.[6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]

  • All the Mods 10 2.32: 21.1.116 to 21.1.119.[7]
  • All the Mods 10 2.44: 21.1.119 to 21.1.124.[8]
  • All the Mods 10 3.0: 21.1.124 to 21.1.127.[9]
  • All the Mods 10 4.3: 21.1.127 to 21.1.130.[10]
  • All the Mods 10 4.11: 21.1.130 to 21.1.135.[11]
  • All the Mods 10 5.3: 21.1.135 to 21.1.141.[12]
  • All the Mods 10 6.0: 21.1.141 to 21.1.146.[13]
  • All the Mods 10 6.1: 21.1.146 to 21.1.147.[14]
  • All the Mods 10 6.2: 21.1.147 to 21.1.152.[15]
  • All the Mods 10 7.0: 21.1.152 to 21.1.153.[16]
  • All the Mods 10 7.2: 21.1.153 to 21.1.157.[17]
  • All the Mods 10 8.0: 21.1.157 to 21.1.162.[6]

The 8.0 update brought the mod to 21.1.162, and that is the version in 8.1. The sources list no further bump for the mod in 8.1.[2][6]

Unverified What each update actually changed (features, fixes, recipe or config changes) is unverified, because no changelogs are stored for the shipped jars.
