What is Simple Magnets?
2 parts
Simple Magnets adds magnets that pull in items and experience around you, so you spend less time chasing drops and more time building. If you hate hunting for loose items after mining, farming or a big fight, this mod is for you.[1]
Magnets can use a whitelist or blacklist, reach up to 11 blocks, and work in Baubles or Curios slots. You can also toggle them with a key bind.[1]
What you get
- Basicmagnet: picks up items and experience within a 5 block range of you.[1][2]
- Advanced Magnet: its range is configurable, and you can set item range and experience range separately. It also supports item filtering, and its maximum range is 11 blocks.[1]
- Demagnetization Coil: stops items from being attracted by magnets. Its area can be adjusted up to 3 blocks away.[1]
- Advanced Demagnetization Coil: does the same job with an area of up to 5 blocks, and it can filter items.[1]
Where it fits in the pack

How do you get started with Simple Magnets?

How does Simple Magnets work?
4 parts
Same as in the All the Mods 10 8.1 guide
Simple Magnets adds magnets that pull dropped items and experience to you, plus demagnetization coils that stop that from happening in an area. Here is how each part works.[1]
Magnets
Both magnets pick up items and experience around the player. The Basicmagnet has a range of 5 blocks. The Advancedmagnet reaches up to 11 blocks and is configurable.[1][5][6]
With the Advanced Magnet you can set the range for items and for experience separately. You can also filter which items it picks up using a whitelist or a blacklist.[1][5]
Magnets also work in Baubles or Curios slots, and you can toggle them with a key bind, so you don't have to keep one in your hand.[1]

- Click one of the filter slots while holding the item you want to filter.[1]
- Set the filter to whitelist or blacklist.[1]
- Choose whether the filter should match NBT data or not.[1]
Demagnetization coils
Demagnetization coils do the opposite job of magnets: they prevent items near them from being attracted by magnets. The Basic Demagnetization Coil can be adjusted to cover up to 3 blocks away.[1][5][6]
The Advanced Demagnetization Coil covers up to 5 blocks away and can also filter items.[1][5][6]
To open a coil's GUI, look at the coil with an empty hand and right-click it.[1]

Quests
The only quest in the sources that involves Simple Magnets is a quest in "?" in the tips_and_tricks chapter. Its task is the Basicmagnet. It only involves the Simple Magnets item, so it does not connect to another mod.[2]
Which All the Mods 10 quests use Simple Magnets?
Simple Magnets only shows up in one place in this pack's quest book: the "tips_and_tricks" chapter. There is a single quest there that involves the mod, so there's no long questline to follow and no order to worry about.[2]
The quest is a quest in "?", and it has no title in the quest book. Its only task is an item task for the Basicmagnet, so you complete it by getting that magnet into your inventory.[2]
Unverified The sources don't show what reward this quest gives, what it requires before it unlocks, or how the Basic Magnet is crafted in this pack, so check the quest in-game for those details.
What changed in Simple Magnets between versions?
The sources for Simple Magnets only support a short history, so here is what is confirmed. The mod has been in All the Mods 10 since version 2.2 or earlier, and All the Mods 10 4.5 ships Simple Magnets 1.1.12+c.[3]
- All the Mods 10 2.2 or earlier: Simple Magnets was first included in the pack.[3]
- All the Mods 10 2.42: Simple Magnets was updated from 1.1.12+b to 1.1.12+c. This is the version you get in 4.5.[3][7]
Unverified The sources don't include any changelog for the Simple Magnets jars shipped in the pack, so what changed between 1.1.12+b and 1.1.12+c, and in earlier versions, is unverified.
