What is Multi-Piston?
1 part
Multi-Piston adds one block to the pack: Multi-Piston. The pack includes version 1.2.57-1.21.1 of the mod, and it has been in the pack since All the Mods 10 2.2 or earlier.[1][2]
Where it sits in the quest book
The Multi-Piston block is the task of quest a quest in "?". That quest is in the "tips_and_tricks" chapter and has no title in the quest file. It is the only quest the chapter listing shows, so the sources give no quest before or after it.[2]
Unverified The sources here do not describe what the Multi-Piston block does, how it is crafted, or how it is configured, and they do not show whether the ATM Star path uses it. The quest in the tips_and_tricks chapter is the only place the quest book mentions it, and its text is not shown here.
How do you get started with Multi-Piston?
2 parts
Getting started with the Multi-Piston is short. The sources for this pack show one item, the Multi-Piston, and one recipe that makes it.[3]
Step 1: Craft the Multi-Piston
The pack changes the Multi-Piston's crafting recipe, so use the recipe below and not one you remember from the mod's defaults or another pack. It is a shaped crafting recipe.[3]
Crafting Shaped
| any redstone storage block | Empty slot | any redstone storage block |
Recipe id: multipiston:multiblock
This is the pack's changed version of the recipe, so follow it exactly.
Step 2: Check the quest
The pack's quest book has a quest for the Multi-Piston in the "tips_and_tricks" chapter: a quest in "?". Its task is the Multi-Piston item, so crafting one is what that quest asks for.[2]
How does Multi-Piston work?
Same as in the All the Mods 10 8.1 guide
The one thing the sources here confirm about this mod is how you get its block, Multi-Piston. It uses a shaped crafting recipe, and the pack has changed that recipe from the mod's default.[4]
Crafting Shaped
| any redstone storage block | Empty slot | any redstone storage block |
Recipe id: multipiston:multiblock
This is the pack's version of the recipe, so don't rely on the mod's default.
Unverified How the Multi-Piston actually behaves is unverified: how many blocks it can move, how it is powered or triggered, whether it forms any multiblock structure, and how it fits with item, fluid or power automation. The pack has no config files for this mod, and the sources here include no guidebook, documentation or tooltip text, so I'm not going to guess.
How do you progress through Multi-Piston?
2 parts
Multi-Piston is a simple one in this pack. What the pack shows for this mod is a single item, Multi-Piston, with one crafting recipe and one quest.[2][3]
Getting your first Multi-Piston
The pack has changed the crafting recipe for the Multi-Piston, so don't rely on what you remember from the mod's defaults. Here is the exact in-pack recipe.[3]
Crafting Shaped
| any redstone storage block | Empty slot | any redstone storage block |
Recipe id: multipiston:multiblock
This recipe is changed by the pack. The redstone slot accepts any redstone storage block.
Quest path
The pack has one quest tied to this mod, a quest in "?", in the "tips_and_tricks" chapter. It has no title, and its task is to have the Multi-Piston.[2]
Which All the Mods 10 quests use Multi-Piston?
The Multi-Piston only shows up in one quest in this pack, and it lives in the "tips_and_tricks" chapter. Since it's the only quest that involves the mod, there's no chain of quests to follow or order to worry about.[2]
- a quest in "?" is an untitled quest in the "tips_and_tricks" chapter. Its task is to obtain the Multi-Piston.[2]
The sources don't list any rewards or prerequisites for this quest, so I can't tell you what it unlocks or what you need to finish first.[2]
Unverified The quest's rewards, its dependencies on other quests, and whether the task is a check-in or a submission are not confirmed by the available sources.
What changed in Multi-Piston between versions?
The sources here only record version bumps for Multi-Piston in this pack. They show which version shipped in which release, not what changed inside the mod.[1][5][6]
- All the Mods 10 2.2 or earlier: Multi-Piston was already in the pack by this point. The exact release that first added it is not shown.[1]
- All the Mods 10 3.0: updated from 1.2.51-1.21.1-snapshot to 1.2.53-1.21.1-snapshot.[6]
- All the Mods 10 4.0: updated from 1.2.53-1.21.1-snapshot to 1.2.57-1.21.1.[5]
All the Mods 10 4.5 ships Multi-Piston 1.2.57-1.21.1, the same version that arrived in 4.0.[1][5]
Unverified What changed in the mod itself between 1.2.51, 1.2.53 and 1.2.57 (new features, fixes or balance changes) is told in the mod's own changelogs. No changelogs are stored for the shipped jars, so the sources here do not show it.
