The Mechanical Planter is a world interacting block added by [[PolyFactory]]. It allows for automated planting of certain blocks such as seeds and saplings. It requires rotational energy connected to the top of the planter in order to function. The planter will search for blocks applicable for the blocks in its inventory, such as dirt or farmland, within a 5x5 square centered on the planter, and will place blocks on the same level, or up to 1 block below the planter. The planter is able to place blocks on relevant blocks through blocks, even without line of sight. The block itself has nine inventory spaces, but only items that can be used by the planter are able to be placed inside it.

Available: 1.20.2 and newer|modloader={{Fabric}}|image=PolyFactory_Logo.png}}'''PolyFactory''' is a Fabric Server Side modification created by Patbox, which adds new items, blocks and mechanics associated with tech mods.

Main goal of this mod was to provide a semi-advanced tech mod that can be played by installing it purely on the server without players having to do anything extra to play with it.

This mod was inspired by likes of [https://wiki.btwce.com/index.php/Main_Page Better Than Wolves] and Create, but also many ideas from other classical tech mods.

== Gameplay ==
By default, the mod doesn't change anything about the world or player's gameplay experience, until they start crafting machines and items provided by this mod.

Player start with the mod by crafting the [[PolyFactory:Grinder|Grinder]] which allows them to get [[PolyFactory:Coal Dust|Coal Dust]], which then can be mixed with [[Minecraft:Redstone|Redstone]] and [[Minecraft:Iron Ingot|Iron Ingot]] to create [[PolyFactory:Steel|Steel Alloy Mixture]]. From there, player can smelt [[PolyFactory:Steel|Steel Ingots]] and start crafting other items and blocks from the mod with usage of [[PolyFactory:Mechanical Mixer|Mechanical Mixer]] and [[PolyFactory:Mechanical Press|Mechanical Press]]. Items can be moved around with usage of [[PolyFactory:Item Conveyor|Item Conveyors]], sorted with [[PolyFactory:Funnel|Funnels]] and [[PolyFactory:Item Splitter|Item Splitters]] and then stored in a [[PolyFactory:Wooden Container|Wooden Containers]] or any other compatible/vanilla form of item storage.

To power most of the machines the player needs to use a [[PolyFactory:Hand Crank|Hand Crank]] for initial machines, [[PolyFactory:Windmill|Windmills]] for later automation or [[PolyFactory:Steam Engine|Steam Engine]] in case where speed and power is required (or it's in place which lacks strong enough winds).

Player then can use things like [[PolyFactory:Cable|Cables]], Data Sources and blocks manipulating/displaying data to allow for more automation or general display information.

By default, PolyFactory doesn't display any recipes. To view them, you need to use the [[Mod:Polydex|Polydex]] mod.

** Clay variant is made out of 4 Clay Balls and "shape item" in the middle (only clay is used).
** Then it needs to be fired in a furnace, creating '''Hardened Clay Mold'''.
** Has limited durability (16).
** Steel variant is made by pouring 4 ingot equivalents of Molten Steel on "shape item", destroying it, placed on a [[PolyFactory:Casting Table|Casting Table]].
** It's unbreakable.
* There are 6 variants of molds: Ingot, Nugget, Pipe, Bottle, Throwable Bottle, Brittle Bottle
* Molds can be used with [[PolyFactory:Mechanical Spout|Mechanical Spout]] and [[PolyFactory:Casting Table|Casting Table]] to shape fluids into items.
* Molds do not get used when crafting (aside of clay variant getting damaged).

Available: 1.20.2 and newer|modloader={{Fabric}}|image=PolyFactory_Logo.png}}'''PolyFactory''' is a Fabric Server Side modification created by Patbox, which adds new items, blocks and mechanics associated with tech mods.

Main goal of this mod was to provide a semi-advanced tech mod that can be played by installing it purely on the server without players having to do anything extra to play with it.

This mod was inspired by likes of [https://wiki.btwce.com/index.php/Main_Page Better Than Wolves] and Create, but also many ideas from other classical tech mods.

== Gameplay ==
By default, the mod doesn't change anything about the world or player's gameplay experience, until they start crafting machines and items provided by this mod.

Player start with the mod by crafting the [[PolyFactory:Grinder|Grinder]] which allows them to get [[PolyFactory:Coal Dust|Coal Dust]], which then can be mixed with [[Minecraft:Redstone|Redstone]] and [[Minecraft:Iron Ingot|Iron Ingot]] to create [[PolyFactory:Steel|Steel Alloy Mixture]]. From there, player can smelt [[PolyFactory:Steel|Steel Ingots]] and start crafting other items and blocks from the mod with usage of [[PolyFactory:Mechanical Mixer|Mechanical Mixer]] and [[PolyFactory:Mechanical Press|Mechanical Press]]. Items can be moved around with usage of [[PolyFactory:Item Conveyor|Item Conveyors]], sorted with [[PolyFactory:Funnel|Funnels]] and [[PolyFactory:Item Splitter|Item Splitters]] and then stored in a [[PolyFactory:Wooden Container|Wooden Containers]] or any other compatible/vanilla form of item storage.

To power most of the machines the player needs to use a [[PolyFactory:Hand Crank|Hand Crank]] for initial machines, [[PolyFactory:Windmill|Windmills]] for later automation or [[PolyFactory:Steam Engine|Steam Engine]] in case where speed and power is required (or it's in place which lacks strong enough winds).

Player then can use things like [[PolyFactory:Cable|Cables]], Data Sources and blocks manipulating/displaying data to allow for more automation or general display information.

By default, PolyFactory doesn't display any recipes. To view them, you need to use the [[Mod:Polydex|Polydex]] mod.

{{Infobox block

Data Comparator is a data block added by [[PolyFactory]]. It allows you to compare 2 data inputs, getting single output (same as [[PolyFactory:Arithmetic Operator|Arithmetic Operator]]).

* Returns Boolean True or False data, depending on operation set with a [[PolyFactory:Wrench|Wrench]].
* Can check if data is <code>equal</code>, <code>not equal</code>, <code>less than</code>, <code>less or equal</code>, <code>more than</code> and <code>more or equal</code>.
* By default it tries to convert types if they don't match, but you can enable strict mode preventing that.
* This block also emits weak redstone signal in direction of output with power level 15 when returning true and 0 for false.

Hiibastian: /* Uses */ steel nugget

=== Steel ===
'''Steel''' is an advanced material in '''[[PolyFactory]]''', used for crafting durable machinery components, tools, and structural parts.

==== Obtaining ====
Steel is created by first crafting a '''Steel Alloy Mixture''', then smelting it into '''Steel Ingots'''.

===== Crafting the Steel Alloy Mixture =====
To create a '''Steel Alloy Mixture''', combine the following in a crafting grid:

* 2 × '''Iron Ingot'''
* 1 × '''Coal Dust'''
* 1 × '''Redstone Dust'''

This yields 1 × '''Steel Alloy Mixture'''.

===== Smelting =====
Once the Steel Alloy Mixture is crafted, it must be smelted to produce Steel:

* '''Furnace''' – 4 seconds per ingot
* '''Blast Furnace''' – 2 seconds per ingot

<blockquote>💡 Tip: Using a Blast Furnace is recommended for faster production when processing large amounts of Steel.</blockquote>

==== Uses ====
[[PolyFactory:Steel Gear|Steel Gear]] crafting

Can be pressed into a '''Steel Plate''' by a [[PolyFactory:Mechanical Press|Mechanical Press]]

9 Steel ingots can be compressed into a '''Block of Steel'''

A Steel ingot can be broken into 9 '''Steel Nuggets''' crafting grid

PolyFactory:Steel

2026-02-01T14:56:18Z

Hiibastian: usage, block of steel, steel plate

=== Steel ===
'''Steel''' is an advanced material in '''[[PolyFactory]]''', used for crafting durable machinery components, tools, and structural parts.

==== Obtaining ====
Steel is created by first crafting a '''Steel Alloy Mixture''', then smelting it into '''Steel Ingots'''.

===== Crafting the Steel Alloy Mixture =====
To create a '''Steel Alloy Mixture''', combine the following in a crafting grid:

* 2 × '''Iron Ingot'''
* 1 × '''Coal Dust'''
* 1 × '''Redstone Dust'''

This yields 1 × '''Steel Alloy Mixture'''.

===== Smelting =====
Once the Steel Alloy Mixture is crafted, it must be smelted to produce Steel:

* '''Furnace''' – 4 seconds per ingot
* '''Blast Furnace''' – 2 seconds per ingot

<blockquote>💡 Tip: Using a Blast Furnace is recommended for faster production when processing large amounts of Steel.</blockquote>

==== Uses ====
[[PolyFactory:Steel Gear|Steel Gear]] crafting

Can be pressed into a '''Steel Plate''' in a

9 Steel ingots can be compressed into a '''Block of Steel'''

Mechanical Crafter is a crafting and storage block added by [[PolyFactory]] used for automated crafting. Its inventory acts as a crafting table that automatically crafts when a source of rotation is connected to its side, ejecting the crafted item (or items) through a [https://modded.wiki/w/PolyFactory:Funnel Funnel] from its bottom onto a [[PolyFactory:Item Conveyor|Item Conveyor]]/[[PolyFactory:Sticky Item Conveyor|Sticky Item Conveyor]] or storing them in its inventory. Its crafting slots can be individually locked to prevent them from being filled; crafting recipes treat locked slots as empty of items.

Can change active mode of the crafter with a [[PolyFactory:Wrench|Wrench]], which includes:

* "Filled" - Craft only if all slots are filled, matching previous behavior. Default mode.
* "Always" - Craft as long as the recipe is valid.
* "Powered" - Craft as long as recipe is valid and the crafter is powered.
* "Not Powered" - Craft as long as recipe is valid and crafter isn't powered.
