Conveyor Belts

Wooden belts that move your items and your creatures for you.

Boars fall from their pen onto a belt. The grinder kills them. The loot rides on. The filter sends the leather to one chest, and the link puts the meat into another.

What is new in 0.2.0

• Settings windows. Press E on a link or an item filter to open its settings (see below).
• The item filter holds a list of up to 8 items, families of items (for example all ores) and creatures.
• The link has three modes: In, Out and Both. You can set how many items it pushes out at a time, and how full it fills a chest or machine.
• Ramps also come without pillars.
• You can build a chest or machine next to a link by aiming at the link's side. Before, it stayed red there.
• The blast furnace drops its bars off its chute, not onto it.
• Items on a belt wait for each other instead of pushing.
• Chests and machines snap only to links now, and the mod no longer changes how anything else snaps.
• Less spam in the log.
• Old links: a link built in 0.1.0 now pushes out a full stack at a time, not 1 item per second. To slow it down, set its push size.

The pieces

Build them all with the hammer, in the Misc tab.

	Piece	What it does
	Belt	Carries items and creatures. Comes 1 m, 2 m and 4 m long, as a left or right corner, and as a ramp up or down, with or without pillars.
	Drop floor	A floor that lets only grown creatures fall through (or only young ones).
	Grinder	Kills every creature that rides in. The loot rides on. Do not stand in it!
	Item filter	Sends the items and creatures on its list to the side. Everything else goes straight on. Press E to pick items, families of items and creatures.
	Link	Puts items into a smelter, kiln, windmill, spinning wheel or chest. It can also take items out of a chest. Press E to set its mode and how many items it moves.
	Trash box	Snaps onto a link. Deletes what the chests and machines cannot take.
	Trash bin	Put it at the end of a belt. Items that fall in are gone.
	Power mill	A small windmill that makes power for the other pieces.
	Rope-drive post	Carries power over a gap, with a rope to another post.

Settings windows

Press E on a link or an item filter to open its settings.

Power

Every belt, filter, grinder and link needs power from a power mill. Pieces that touch share the power. If there is not enough, they stop. Look at a piece to see why it stopped. Walls and a roof round a mill make it weaker.

Playing with friends

Everyone must have the mod: every player and the server.

Install

Use a mod manager (r2modman, Gale or Thunderstore Mod Manager). It installs BepInEx and Jotunn for you.

Settings

The costs, the power numbers and the rope length can be changed in the config file. On a server, only an admin can change them.

Each player can also turn off [Building] SnapToLinks. Then chests and machines no longer snap to links.
