A HV Transformer is used to limit energy flow to 512 EU/t.

Transformers have two modes - step-up and step-down. By default, a transformer will operate in step-down mode unless it receives a redstone signal. This can be changed in the GUI.

In step-down mode, an HV transformer will accept up to 2048 EU/t to the 5-dot face without exploding, and output 512 EU/t from the 1-dot faces.
Step-up mode appears to be useless.

=== Converting to HV ===
In order to convert to HV, you must point the input cable to the 5-dotted side and then link any number of output cables from the 1-dotted sides.

MV Transformers are used to limit energy flow to 128 EU/t.

A transformer has two modes - step-up and step-down mode. By default, the transformer will operate in step-down mode unless it is receiving a redstone signal. This can be changed in the GUI.

In step-down mode, the transformer will accept up to 512 EU/t from the 5-dotted side without exploding, and output 128 EU/t from the 3-dotted sides.
Step-up mode appears to be useless.

The Low Voltage Transformer is mainly used to limit energy flow to 32 [[EU|EU/t]].

Unlike Real Life™, there is no actual "voltage" in IC². EU travels in "packets" through wires with near-infinite speed and has smart pathfinding (somewhat like RP2 pneumatic tubes). Packets are measured in size (in EU/p) and volume (EU). (Size being the amount of energy it contains as it leaves a storage unit, volume being how much energy is left in each packet after inefficient cable usage).

Transformers have two modes - "step up" and "step down". By default, the transformer will be in step up mode when it receives a redstone signal, and step down mode otherwise. This can be changed in the GUI.

In step down mode, up to 128 EU/t can be applied to the 5-dot side of the transformer, and 32 EU/t will be emitted from the 1-dot sides.
Step up mode appears to be useless.

Created by combining the Lapis Lazuli's Current-Storage abilities with an [[Energy Crystal]],one can create a device capable of storing TEN MILLION EU.

However, as most devices are incapable of handling this power, only an [[MFS Unit|MFSU]] or machines with 2 [[Transformer upgrade]] (as of IC2 v1.65) can (de)charge these crystals.

Unlike [[RE Battery|RE Batteries]], right-clicking does not recharge the electric tools currently in your inventory.

In .minecraft/config/IC2.cfg you can edit that file and in general...

# Enable usage of lapotron crystals on miners
enableMinerLapotron=false

Set false to true and lapotron crystals can be used in miners.

A charged lapotron crystal can store '''OVER 9000 [[Gibbl]]! HAYO!'''

The extremely dense energy storage results in many electrons being packed tightly together. All that negative charge results in extreme pressures, hence the use of diamonds, for their strength.

The Multi-Functional Storage Unit, or MFSU, is a Tier 4 energy storage device. It is able to store up to 40 million [[EU]] (making it capable of powering multiple [[Teleporter|teleportations]], running a [[Mass Fabricator]], or directly storing power from most [[Nuclear Reactor]]s). It can accept up to 2048 EU/t from its 5 input faces (the faces without dots). It can also emit a current of 2048EU/t from its output face (the face with a dot).

Like all storage units, its output face is marked by a special texture, which usually faces the player when the block is placed. The direction of the output face can be changed by right-clicking with a [[Wrench]] onto any of the input faces of the block; normally, this will point the output face towards the player, but holding Shift while clicking will point the output face in the opposite direction. Be aware that right-clicking the MFSU while pointing at its output face will dismantle it.

Notice: Most machines cannot handle 2048 [[EU|EU/t]] being sent to their storage, so they explode.

The Multi-Functional Electric storage unit, or MFE, is a Tier 3 energy storage device. It is able to store up to 4,000,000 [[EU]]. It can accept up to 512 EU/t from its 5 input faces and output 512 EU/t from its output face. This is too strong for most machines however, so you need to transform it with a [[MV Transformer]] and [[LV Transformer]] before feeding it into machines or use a [[Transformer upgrade]].

Like all storage units, its output face is marked by a special texture, which usually faces the player when the block is placed. The direction of the output face can be changed by right-clicking with a Bronze [[Wrench]] onto any of the input faces of the block; normally, this will point the output face towards the player, but holding Shift while clicking will point the output face in the opposite direction. Be aware that right-clicking the MFE while pointing at its output face will dismantle it.

You can set the redstone behavior by clicking the redstone button on the top left of the GUI.

If the '''MFE''' is broken with a stone pickaxe or better, it will drop a [[Machine Block]], and any energy stored will be removed. If the '''MFE''' is dismantled with a wrench, it will always drop itself, with all energy removed. (You do not need to enable lossless wrench mode).

'''This section is outdated.'''

This device can do it. Everything.

The ''MultiFunctionalElectric Transmitter'' is necessary for any big industrial workspace using cables and current. Why? Let me tell you of the amazing number of uses:

Any cable linked to the side faces of the ''MFE'' will transmit energy into it. The ''MFE'' itself will as well '''EMIT''' energy, through the top and bottom faces.

Even more, the ''MFE'' contains an integrated '''ENERGY STORAGE'''. Yes, that's right, it can effectively contain an amount of energy, comparable to '''60 [[RE_Battery|RE BATTERIES]]'''(or 10 [[Energy_Crystal|Energy Crystals]]).
The ''MFE'' will often not emit power if no power is requested of it (for instance, if it is just linked to a machine). However, it is possible to stop the ''MFE'' from emitting energy at all by powering it with redstone.

But even better: for the unbelievable case you managed to '''FULLY LOAD''' the ''MFE'', it will emit energy (ignoring redstone signals). This was done for the sake of preventing energy from getting wasted in uebercharged ''MFE'' 's.

Last but not least, the ''MFE'' can act as an energy up- & download station in vast networks. You can pop an empty battery(or an empty Energy Crystal) in the upper slot and it will become charged until it's full or the MFE is out of energy. As well, you can put charged batteries(and charged Energy Crystals)into the lower slot to load up the ''MFE'' 's storage.
That's technology, isn't it, HAYO!

BatBox

{{Block

The BatBox is the most basic energy storage device. It is able to store up to 40 000 [[EU]]. It can accept up to 32 EU/t from its 5 input faces. It can also emit a current of 32 EU/t from its output face.

Like all storage units, its output face is marked by a special texture, which usually faces the player when the block is placed. The direction of the output face can be changed by right-clicking with a [[Wrench]] onto any of the input faces of the block; normally, this will point the output face towards the player, but holding Shift while clicking will point the output face in the opposite direction. Be aware that right-clicking the BatBox while pointing at its output face will dismantle it.

'''This paragraph is outdated.''' This block can charge most energy storage devices. Likewise, it is very useful to implement BatBoxes to both store power from generators and also as a method of extending the reach of your cable. A typical starter setup of Industrial devices involves a natural generator (such as a wind or solar array for free energy) feeding into a BatBox with a row of copper cable along the front of the Batbox which feeds the back of your Macerator, Furnace, etc (in essence, a T-shaped network). Note that the BatBox resets the cable length energy loss calculations, so they work well to extend your power network; using up to four insulated copper cable segements from the generator to the BatBox and up to four segments away from your BatBox to all your devices without losing any energy. Likewise, they can very easily be daisy chained to extend your storage capabilities.

It can be broken with either a Stone Pickaxe or better, or a [[Wrench]]. However, you need a wrench or [[Electric Wrench]] to reorient it. Take note that the BatBox will lose '''all its stored EU''' if broken.

EU

2013-05-10T04:26:14Z

Immibis:

EU - '''Energy Unit''' is the measure of energy used by IC. It is most similar to the SI derived unit [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule Joule]. EUs are 'produced' by [[generator]]s, stored by mobile units like an [[RE Battery]] or by stationary units like a [[batbox]], transmitted along [[cable]]s, and 'consumed' by ICs various machines.

EU stored in items or devices does not leak over time.

EU is not related to Redstone current, but multiple machines can be affected by redstone currents, and a [[Detector Cable]] produces redstone current if there is any EU passing through it.
Some machines allow a lever to be mounted directly on its block.

Raw EU values are used to measure capacity of energy storage items or blocks.

== EU/t ==

EU/t means '''Energy unit per tick'''. It is a derived unit of energy over time, a rate of EU consumption or production, similar to the SI derived unit [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watt Watt].

To measure the average EU/t transferred through a wire over time an [[EC-Meter]] can be used. If clicked once on a cable it will begin measurement. Clicking the same cable again will display the averagely measured EU/t and over how many ticks the measurement took place. It will also begin a new measurement on the same cable.

EU/t transfer can also be observed by the rate of change in EU capacity displayed by storage devices like the [[batbox]].

Minecraft normally operates at about 20 ticks per second, unless you are experiencing server [http://mcserverwiki.com/index.php?title=Reducing_Lag lag]. Therefore, under no lag conditions, the rate of EU/sec is 20x EU/t.

== EU/p ==
EU/p means '''Energy unit per packet''', and is the amount of energy contained in each EU packet. It is also known as voltage.
This is important because machines will explode and wires will melt if they are exposed to packets which are too large.

EU/p is almost always fixed for a given wiring setup, as opposed to EU/t which may change as machines turn on and off, storage units fill up, or generators run out of fuel. [[Nuclear reactor]]s and some generators from addons can emit different packet sizes, but most devices always emit the same size packets.

EU/p ranges from 1 to 2048 EU, and can occasionally be higher. The sum of the EU value of all EU-Packets travelling through a cable or device in one tick is EU/t.

There is also packets/tick, or p/t, which can be involved in calculations but is not normally used. If all packets on a wire are the same size, then on that wire EU/t = EU/p * p/t.

=== Emitters ===
* Generators and storage devices emit one packet/tick. This means their EU/p output = their EU/t output.
* [[BatBox]]es emit 32 EU/p (and therefore 32 EU/t). [[MFE Unit]]s emit 128 EU/p. [[MFS Unit]]s emit 512 EU/p.
* Transformers behave somewhat like storage units. An LV tranformer will store up to 128 EU. An MV transformer will store 512 EU. An HV transformer will store 2048 EU. In addition, they are capable of outputting 4 packets/tick. This means a single MV transformer can output 512 EU/t and 128 EU/p when in step-down mode. It cannot output 2048 EU/t and 512 EU/p in step-up mode because it cannot store 2048 EU.

=== Cables ===
[[Cable]]s are limited by the size of EU-Packets that may travel through, NOT the number of packets, NOR the total EU/t contained by these packets. If an EU Packet too large for a cable to handle tries to pass through, the cable will be destroyed.

For example, an unlimited amount of 32 EU-Packets can pass through a Copper cable per tick, but not a single 128 EU-Packet.

Energy loss of a cable is applied to every EU-packet, not the total EU/t passing through. Ex. Using a gold cable, sending 4 32 EU-Packets in a cable (by using 4 [[batbox]]s) results in 4 times the energy loss of sending one 128 EU-Packet (by using a [[MFE Unit]]). See the [[Cable#Voltage Efficiency|Voltage Efficiency]] section for more information.

A [[Nuclear Reactor]] is able to provide variable sized packets based on setup, the maximum possible energy output is around 3600 EU\t.

== An Analogy ==

Quote from Zjarek of the Industrial-Craft 2 Forums:

"In IC2 electricity is only a buzz word for small magical dwarfs carrying nanobatteries. From every energy source or storage there is one dwarf released every tick. Size of a dwarf is determined by amount of energy they are carrying. Cables are in reality just a tunnels where they run. If a cable or machine don't provide enough space for a dwarf it will get angry and blow up.

However many dwarfs are happy to run alongside each other and will in cooperation carry any amount of energy through a cable. Big dwarf will still prefer to blow up, then to split, but he can split into smaller dwarfs in transformer. Every smaller dwarf which is produced by transformer can go to the same output tunnel.

These useful little creatures are also sometimes nicknamed packets."

The Induction Furnace is an advanced version of the [[Electro Furnace]]. It has the ability to process 2 stacks of items simultaneously. Doing so will also save 50% of the energy that would have been used had every stack been smelted by itself.

Another feature of the Induction Furnace is its ability to build up heat. At higher heat levels, the Furnace both smelts faster, and uses less energy per smelting action.

''Please note the above GUI is not correct.''
The smeltable items are put into the two top slots, and then the Furnace is supplied with EU. Note that the furnace can accept both '''Low Voltage''' and '''Medium Voltage''' (up to 128 [[EU|EU/p]]). The processed items appear in the two rightmost slots.

During its operation, the Furnace will build up heat, up to 100%. When idle, the heat will slowly dissipate back to 0%. It is possible build up and maintain the heat by providing a redstone signal to the Furnace. In that case, the Furnace will constantly consume 1 EU/t when idle to maintain the heat. Smelting while applying a redstone signal does not make the Induction Furnace warm up faster.

It takes 10,000 ticks for the furnace to build up from 0% heat to 100% (8 minutes and 20 seconds) at a cost of 10,000 EU, not including EU spent smelting during the warm-up time. This implies that there's a minimum amount of smelting before which it's inefficient to use the Induction Furnace. Additionally, the furnace loses heat four times faster than it builds up (2 minutes and 5 seconds).

The High Voltage Transformer is used to turn '''Extreme Voltage''' (EV) [[EU]] current into '''High Voltage''' (HV) and back. This transformation is useful for carrying EU over extreme distances without significant losses.

EV current must be wired into the output face (the 3-dotted one), while HV current can be wired into any other face. By default, the Transformer outputs HV current. A Redstone signal must be applied to it in order to make it reverse flow, thereby emitting EV current from the High Voltage face (the 3-dotted one).

It can handle a maximum of one conversion per tick, limiting the maximum transfer to 2048 [[EU#EU/t|EU/t]] in either mode.

When using any Transformer, remember that the 3-dotted face means '''higher voltage''' and the 1-dotted face means '''lower voltage'''. You can change the direction the 3-dotted face is facing by right-clicking a 1-dotted face with a [[Wrench]].

=== Converting to HV: ===

In order to convert EV to HV, you must point the [[Cable|cable]] carrying EV from another HV Transformer to the 3-dotted face and then link a cable to one of the faces with a single dot. Then that cable will be carrying HV that you can link to an [[MFS Unit]] or an [[MV Transformer]].

The MV Transformer is used to turn '''High Power''' (512 [[EU#EU-Packet|EUP]]) into '''Medium Power''' (128 EUP) and back. This is useful for powering advanced machines and for medium-range energy transport.

By default, the Transformer accepts 512 [[EU#EU-Packet|EUP]] input and outputs 128 EUP. A 512 EUP or higher rated [[cable]] must be wired into the input face (the 3-dotted one) and 128 EUP or higher rated cable must be wired into the other faces.

A Redstone signal may be applied to reverse the conversion, thereby emitting 512 [[EU#EU-Packet|EUP]] from the output face (the 3-dotted one), and accepting 128 EUP or lower from the input faces. In reverse operation, 512 EUP or higher rated [[cable]] must be wired to the output face and any rate cable may be wired to the input faces.

It can handle a maximum of one conversion per tick, limiting the maximum transfer to 512 [[EU#EU/t|EU/t]] in either mode.

The Multi-Functional Electric storage unit, or MFE, is a Tier 2 energy storage device. It is able to store up to 600,000 [[EU]]. It can accept up to 128 EU-Packet power, with unlimited EU/t, from its 5 input faces and output 128 EU-Packet power, with a max of 128EU/t, from its output face.

Like all storage units, its output face is marked by a special texture, which usually faces the player when the block is placed. The direction of the output face can be changed by right-clicking with a Bronze [[Wrench]] onto any of the input faces of the block; normally, this will point the output face towards the player, but holding Shift while clicking will point the output face in the opposite direction. Be aware that right-clicking the MFE Unit while pointing at its output face will dismantle it.

You can set the redstone behavior by clicking the redstone button on the top left of the GUI.

PROTIP: Do NOT use [[Copper Cable]] on the output face because Copper cable cannot handle more than 32 EU.

== Recipe ==

Note: Prior to version 1.97, the recipe used insulated copper cable instead of 2xins. gold cable.

OV Scanner

2012-06-23T23:58:18Z

Immibis: 1.97 recipe

{{IC²}}

The [[OV Scanner]] (Ore Value Scanner) is the improved version of the [[OD Scanner]]. This device not only calculates how much ore there is in the scanned area, but outputs its value based on how valuable the ores are. The OV Scanner can also be inserted into a [[Miner]] to increase the Miner's mining area from 5x5 to 9x9.

== Recipe ==

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=|B1=Glowstone Dust|C1=
|A2=Glowstone Dust|B2=Advanced Circuit|C2=Glowstone Dust
|A3=2xIns. Gold Cable|B3=OD Scanner|C3=2xIns. Gold Cable
|Output=OV Scanner
}}

== Usage ==

The OV Scanner is operated by activating it in a Hotbar slot and right clicking with it. The Scanner scans all blocks in a 9x9 square around the player. It evaluates all the blocks below player's position. Every valuable resource block is then added to the total value of the area. This chart shows the default value list:

{|class="wikitable"
|'''Resource'''
|'''Value'''
|-
|Coal Ore
|1
|-
|Copper Ore
|2
|-
|Tin Ore
|2
|-
|Gold Ore
|3
|-
|Redstone Ore
|3
|-
|Lapis Lazuli Ore
|3
|-
|Iron Ore
|4
|-
|Uranium Ore
|4
|-
|Diamond Ore
|5
|}

This list can be customized in the .minecraft/config/IC2.cfg file on the line starting with '''valuableOres='''. Other blocks, including blocks from other mods can be added to the comma separated list of blocks using this pattern: blockID-Damage:ScannerValue, ; when the damage value is not specified all possible values match.

The values are totaled, and the total ore value in an area is then calculated according to the following formula:

<code>ValueOfArea = 1000*TotalValue/TotalBlocksScanned</code>, where <code>TotalValue</code> is the sum of all the values for the detected resources, and <code>TotalBlocksScanned</code> is the total number of blocks below the player. In this case, it is equal to <code>81*ScanHeight</code>. The result is rounded down to the nearest integer and output on player's screen.

== Recharging ==

{{Grid/Machine
|Type=MFE Transmitter
|Top=OV Scanner
}}

Every usage drains 250 [[EU]], and with the total storage of 10 000 EU, this means that the OV Scanner can be used 40 times before having to be recharged. It can only be recharged in an [[MFE Transmitter]], an [[MFS Unit]], or a [[Miner]]. Using the Miner to charge the OV Scanner allows charging without access to tier 2 and 3 EU storage devices. Note that the OV Scanner does not drain the player's [[BatPack]]!

Teleporter

2012-06-23T23:57:43Z

Immibis: 1.97 recipe

{{Block

This is the '''FUTURE!'''

Who needs Minecarts, long walkways or a speedy Quantum Suit, if you can harness the ultimate technology of TELEPORTING right to wherever you want?

Teleporters are highly-complex, super-modern pieces of extremely-hayoish-awesome technology, capable of teleporting an infinite number of objects, excluding solid matter in form of blocks, to another Teleporter.

However, we recommend buying a whole bunch of our sweet and cheap generator products, otherwise you WILL not be able to power the Teleporters sufficiently:

== Usage: ==
1. Place the Teleporter directly adjacent to a power storage unit such as an [[MFS Unit]], or even a couple.

2. Use a [[FreqTrans]] to link one Teleporter to another.

3. Wire Redstone to the Teleporter.

4. Activate the Redstone.

If you have enough power in contiguous [[MFS Unit|storage units]], the power will be drained and you will be instantly teleported to the connected Teleporter.

== Linking Teleporters ==
Linking Teleporters is as easy as 1,2,3

#while holding a [[FreqTrans]] right-click on the first Teleporter.
#repeat for the second Teleporter.
#'''GO TELEPORTING. HEYO!'''

== Power Costs ==
The power used by the Teleporter depends on a combination of what is being teleported and how far.

===Teleporter EU cost Calculator===
You can download an Excel file to calculate the required power to perform a teleport [http://www.mediafire.com/?k68plu9rg4tdn9n here].

===Formulas and Values===
'''Animal weight:''' 100

'''Mob weight:''' 500

'''Player weight:''' 1000 + (100 per worn armor piece) + (100 per full item stack)
* Worst case player weight: 1000 + 4 * 100 + 4 * 9 * 100 = 5000

'''Energy cost:''' Floor(5 * Floor(Weight) * (Floor(Distance) + 10)^0.7)
* Minimum distance, worst case weight, 5 fully charged MFSU: ~51960

===Energy Cost Example===

Teleporting a player with only chest armor, boots, 64 cobblestone, 20 dirt, and 10 eggs for 15 distance.

Base cost:'' 1000''

Armor cost: ''Chest(100) + Boots(100)''

Inventory cost:'' Cobblestone(100 * 64/64) + Dirt(100 * 20/64) + Eggs(100 * 10/16) = 193.75''

Player weight:'' 1000 + 200 + 193.75 = 1393.75''

Total: ''Floor(5 * Floor(1393.75) * (15 + 10)^0.7) = 66294 EU''

As you can see, the power requirements easily exceed even [[HV Cable]], which is why a cable connection is insufficient. Although, an HV Cable might be sufficient for teleporting animals short distances (untested).

===Distance Calculation===

Distances are calculated in '''Euclidean meters'''.

'''Distance = sqrt( (dx)^2 + (dy)^2 + (dz)^2 )'''

dx, dy, and dz are distances in the x, y, and z directions, respectively.

===Distance Example===

If you place a teleporter at (10,50,-20) and another at (30,15,-60)

dx = 30-10 = 20

dy = 15-50 = -35

dz = (-60)-(-20) = -40

Distance = sqrt ( 20^2 + (-35)^2 + (-40)^2 ) = 56.78908

===Energy Storage Devices===

Energy will be drained from adjacent energy storage devices simultaneously. Equal amounts of energy will be drained from adjacent devices if there are enough energy. If three energy devices are adjacent 33.33% of the energy will be drained from each.

All types of energy storage can be used BatBox, MFE and MFSU.

== Other Notes: ==
Teleporters can explode if you leave and reload a world without quitting Minecraft.

Other mods like TMI (Too Many Items) can interfere with IC2. Specifically Frequency Transmitters when setting up Teleporters. This bug often makes Frequency Transmitters get stuck on the first Teleporter when linking two Teleporters. Afterwards it is not possible to unlink from the first Teleporter and all other connections made will link to the first Teleporter.

Teleporters can teleport players that are standing one block above the teleporter. This makes it possible to place a storage device on all 6 sides. It also makes it possible to camouflage teleporters under the ground. With IC2 1.81 you get stuck, the teleporter must be visible if you will arrive without damage. 

In SMP there may be a Loop Bug [http://forum.industrial-craft.net/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=4902] the solution is an Pulse Former from RedPower2 or without RP2 an pulse limiter redstone circuit.

The MV Transformer is used to turn '''High Power''' (512 [[EU#EU-Packet|EUP]]) into '''Medium Power''' (128 EUP) and back. This is useful for powering advanced machines and for medium-range energy transport.

By default, the Transformer accepts 512 [[EU#EU-Packet|EUP]] input and outputs 128 EUP. A 512 EUP or higher rated [[cable]] must be wired into the output face (the 3-dotted one) and 128 EUP or higher rated cable must be wired into the other faces.

A Redstone signal may be applied to reverse the conversion, thereby emitting 512 [[EU#EU-Packet|EUP]] from the output face (the 3-dotted one), and accepting 128 EUP or lower from the input faces. In reverse operation, 512 EUP or higher rated [[cable]] must be wired to the output face and any rate cable may be wired to the input faces.

It can handle a maximum of one conversion per tick, limiting the maximum transfer to 512 [[EU#EU/t|EU/t]] in either mode.

Tutorial:Nuclear Power

2012-03-23T00:36:57Z

Immibis: /* Step 7: The Soothing Hum of Power */

== Nuclear Physics 101 ==

Welcome, to the Industrial Craft School of Nuclear-arity! 
Here, we shall give some tips and tricks to avoid turning your '''new home''' into a '''melting slag heap'''!

=== Step 1: Finding [[Uranium_Ore|Uranium Ore]] ===

There is no easy way to find Uranium Ore short of mining, mining, mining. It appears randomly in '''very''' small veins, and has been seen on the surface at sea level. It also appears rarely in the walls of caverns. It must be mined with an Iron or better Pickaxe, and will drop 1×[[Uranium]] for every 1×Ore that is successfully mined.

=== Step 2: My First Reactor(tm) ===

The Chernobyl-2 [[Nuclear Reactor]] is expensive to build, relying as it does on hard-to-obtain elements like Glowstone and energy-intensive materials like [[Advanced Alloy|Advanced Alloy Plates]]. Don't expect to build one in your first week.

=== Step 3: Finding Your 3-Mile Island ===

Siting your [[Nuclear Reactor]] is crucial! While it can be removed using a [[Wrench]], the possibility of destroying your precious machine in the process makes this a risky proposition. Ideally you'll have a lake or ocean nearby; the Chernobyl-2 works best (and safest) when surrounded by a cube of water.

=== Step 4: Heavy Water ===

In SMP environs, you may wish to site your reactor somewhere more... secluded. Building a Reactor Containment Vessel will be essential. Nothing less than [[Reinforced Stone]] should be used in the construction. Using buckets to place water as you build should allow you to create the necessary cube of water surrounding your Reactor. Use a [[Reinforced Stone Door]] for access. Ensure that there is sufficient blast shielding to minimize destruction of property in the case of an accident!

=== Step 5: The Green Glow ===

Ok, so now you've got a Reactor suspended in water, with or without cables attached. You've got at least one piece of [[Uranium Ore]]. Congratulations, world domination your nuclear future awaits!

=== Step 6: Cells of Plenty ===

But, you can't just use raw uranium, you have to [[Compressor|Compress]] it into shiny new [[Uranium Fuel Ingot|Uranium Fuel Ingots]], then shove those ingots into an [[Empty Cell]] to make a [[Uranium Cell]]! These are the only source of power generation in a Reactor. Now process the rest of your Uranium Ore into Uranium Cells. Never mix fuel ingots with gunpowder in an attempt to make a nuke!

=== Step 7: The Soothing Hum of Power ===

So, here is the point of the Nuclear Reactor. By placing 1 more [[Uranium Cell]] into the Reactor and surrounding it with [[Coolant Cell]]s. Each Cell will provide a staggering '''TWO MILLION EU''' of Energy, and your Reactor outputs '''10 EU/t.''' That's equivalent to a coal-burning [[Generator]], but the uranium lasts so much longer than coal!

=== Step 8: Holy Fukushima! (with apologies to the easily offended!) ===

If the proper precautions are taken, a Nuclear explosion can be mostly contained and the damage sustained minimal. In the wrong situation though, a Nuclear disaster can leave you with a pretty impressive hole in the ground where your prized workshop used to be. ALWAYS ensure your reactor has '''at least''' 1 square of water surrounding it in every possible direction, and screen it with [[Reinforced Stone]] for maximum protection.

=== Optional Step ===
Nuclear reactors are very valuable and without a doubt have a decent learning curve.

A complete breakdown of how each reactor component works is available on the IC2 forum [http://forum.industrial-craft.net/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=446 Here]

== Items in wrong category ==

Status: To-Do

Surely the mass fabricator is a machine not a generator? (I mean I thought the generator list was for EU generators, i suppose the mass fabricator is a generator of sorts...)--[[User:Supersting|Supersting]] 12:46, 8 June 2011 (CEST)
{{Reply|space=:|agree=reply|user=Delerium76|reply=I agree too and tried fixing it, but don't have permission. Any reason something like this is locked?}}

{{Reply|space=::|agree=sure|user=Feanturi|reply=Sure there is a reason^^ There are some people, which always want to mess up everything and i don't want to rollback that much^^}}

* The Mass Fabricator still needs to be moved from the 'Generators' section to the 'Machines' section. --[[User:Trifler|Trifler]] 07:01, 5 October 2011 (CEST)
* The Energy-O-Mat and the Trade-O-Mat also need to be moved to the 'Machines' section. --[[User:Trifler|Trifler]] 13:17, 7 October 2011 (CEST)

== Wrong name listed for Mixed Metal Ingot ==

Status: To-Do

I noticed that the Metal Block is titled Alloy in the navigation box. Should probably be changed to Metal Block to match the page itself. [[User:Eyekantspel|Eyekantspel]] 03:50, 9 June 2011 (CEST)

* The page itself should probably be renamed to Alloy. --[[User:Trifler|Trifler]] 02:03, 8 October 2011 (CEST)

== Reorder Wiring Section ==

Status: Suggestion

I was thinking that it would be a lot easier for people if the Wiring portion of the Navigation template was reordered so that the Cables, Batteries, and Transformers were listed in order of smallest to largest instead of alphabetically. For example:
"Cables: Tin Cable, Copper Cable, Gold Cable, HV Cable, Glass Fibre Cable". Then for the batteries: "Single Use Battery, RE Battery, BatBox, MFE Unit, MFS Unit". Same deal for the transformers: "LV Transformer, MV Transformer, HV Transformer". --[[User:Trifler|Trifler]] 01:20, 25 October 2011 (CEST)
{{Reply|space=:|user=Talonius|agree=reply|reply=I did ask whether 'tiered' items should be in tier order instead of alphabetical order, I was told keep them alphabetical.}}

== Add Subgroups to Navigation Template ==

Status: Suggestion

It would be even better to use subgroups (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Navbox_subgroup), but I couldn't get it to work on here. Perhaps it has to be in the template before it will display properly. I'd be happy to code it into subgroups if that's the case. --[[User:Trifler|Trifler]] 03:48, 3 October 2011 (CEST)
{{Reply|space=:|user=Talonius|agree=wiki-fu|reply=Subgroup template ported over, with collapsable functionally too, woohoo!}}
{{Reply|space=:|user=Thejoshwolfe|agree=i hate it|reply=I hate the subgroups. I can't search for item names anymore without expanding all the groups first. If they were all expanded by default, this change would be fine. As it is now, I'd much rather revert it. I'm all for organization, but this change has made the template much harder to use.}}
{{Reply|space=::|agree=>.>|user=Feanturi|reply=There is always at least one guy, who doesn't like it. But it won't be rolled back}}
{{Reply|space=:::|agree=Two|user=jfelten|reply=Two actually. I much preferred the prior version with less clicking, especially when just browsing what items are in IC2}}
:::: Why not just add an "expand all" button at the top that opens them all? I'm sure it's doable. [[User:Markus|~Markus]] ([[User_talk:Markus|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Markus|contribs]]) 06:47, 7 November 2011 (CET)

== Re-add Luminator ==

Luminator needs to be added to the machines section. I've altered the Luminator page to agree with 1.337, but could use checking and some more "HEYO!"
--[[User:Tim|Tim]] 13:30, 18 December 2012 (GMT)

== Missing Items ==

Electric Treetap needs to be added. -- [[User:PlatSilver|PlatSilver]] 08:50, 29 January 2012 (CET)

Empty Cell needs to be added.

== Missing Items 2 ==

Luminator [http://wiki.industrial-craft.net/index.php?title=Luminator] is not in this list,who can add it? --[[User:Chenshaoju|Chenshaoju]] 05:16, 2 March 2012 (CET)

== Missing items 3 ==

Static boots and solar helmets are still missing. [[User:Immibis|Immibis]] 20:24, 11 March 2012 (CET)

CF Sprayer

2012-02-12T12:19:35Z

Immibis: /* Hints */ just tested this

With the ''CF Sprayer'' you can place/spray [[Construction Foam]].

It'll spray 13 blocks of [[Construction Foam|CF]], on a flat layer mostly in the following shape:

[[File:Foam_Shape_1.png|link=Construction Foam]]

[[File:FoamSpreading.png|thumb|Spraying [[Construction Foam|CF]] in a 'cave']]

[[File:Foam_Spreading_2.png|thumb|Spraying [[Construction Foam|CF]] on a wall]]

== Recipe ==

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Cobblestone|B1=Cobblestone|C1=
|A2=Cobblestone|B2=Stick|C2=
|A3=|B3=|C3=Cobblestone
|Output=CF Sprayer
}}

== Refilling ==

'''1/8 Fill''':
{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=CF Pellet|B1=|C1=
|A2=|B2=CF Sprayer|C2=
|A3=|B3=|C3=
|Output=CF Sprayer
}}
Can be crafted multiple times, shapless recipe.

'''Full Fill''':
{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=CF Pellet|B1=CF Pellet|C1=CF Pellet
|A2=CF Pellet|B2=CF Sprayer|C2=CF Pellet
|A3=CF Pellet|B3=CF Pellet|C3=CF Pellet
|Output=CF Sprayer
}}

Each pellet loaded in allows two uses of the sprayer.
Usage of CFPack allow you to skip manual refilling and hold up to 128 pellets ready, in this case each pellet will provide only one use.

== Hints ==

If using a CF Sprayer to spray on a [[Scaffold]] it will replace the [[Scaffold]] with construction foam.
So you can use a scaffolds in combination with Construction Foam to create walls (etc.) without the need to break unnecessary, left-over construction foam.

The scaffolds are not returned if replaced by construction foam.

Tutorial:First Steps

2012-01-28T04:41:53Z

Immibis: /* Generator */ Battery: 10000 EU, (char)coal: 4000 EU -> one battery = 2,5 (char)coal

----
<big>Special Thanks to [http://www.minecraftforum.net/memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=296587 OKamilTan]!</big>

The tutorial is regularly updated, you can see the first version of it here.
Whilst waiting for a corrected version, you can download the last unfinished version here: [http://www.mediafire.com/?j9gem0c4laoeyb5 First Steps in the IndustrialCraft mod for Minecraft V0.5.pdf]
(texture pack used: [http://www.minecraftforum.net/viewtopic.php?f=1021&t=163329&sid=cdc70e1f885922f1354f76755c7c868d Soartex])

== Basics steps in a new world ==

[[file:first_steps1.png |350x350px| link=|left]]
 

Now that you have downloaded and installed the mod and generated a new map, you really don’t know where to begin. Like all other maps you begin in, gather some wood, then some cobblestone and coal and build a little house (or a cave if you wish) for your first night.

[[file:first_steps2.png |350x350px| link=|left]]
 

Here is mine with some flowers. Having a pretty house is always a plus, even if it’s just for you, and I can easily expand it.
Beware of the mobs if you are not playing in Peaceful mode, the creepers can blow up what you built. If you want to, use some torches to light the area.
 

[[file:first_steps3.png |350x350px| link=|right]]
 

Keep in mind you will need a lot of room for your industry. Try to get a good spot with a lot of space not too far away, like that sand plain I can see from my roof (you will also need lots of sand for other purposes).
Don’t forget to add some chests and a bed in your little place.

Nothing new here, but you must begin with a good base if you want to go further. The next part will introduce some new things.
 

== First Ingredients and Machines ==

You now have a little base with four walls, a roof, some chests, a bed, a furnace, and a crafting table, but you want more new stuff. Now, you need to gather Rubber. You will need a lot of lumber to build our first machine, and a basic generator: 34 logs precisely. However, you should take more to use as fuel.

}}

Can you smell the fresh air of new toys? Use 5 planks to create a [[Treetap]]. You will need 5 tree taps total, one for extracting [[Sticky Resin]] and four for crafting an [[Extractor]], but wait until later to make the other four to save space.
 

Now, extract 6 [[Sticky Resin]] from the [[Rubber Wood|rubber trees]]. Rubber trees are somewhat random, but I can tell you they're most abundant in Swamp biomes and they never grow in Desert biomes.

For now drop that into a chest, and gather torches, pickaxes, and food, for you will have to go to the center of the earth! The second thing you must gather is Redstone, that next-to useless red powder you have in astronomical quantity is the base of industrial electricity. Of course, you will need an iron pickaxe to extract it, but you must be really unlucky if you don’t find any along the way. Also, you should mine any [[Copper Ore|Copper]] or [[Tin Ore|Tin]] you see.

[[file:first_steps6.png |500px| link=|center]]

Here is a screenshot of a natural cave where you can see all but three types of ores you can gather, from left to right:

*Gold. Its value is much higher in IC, especially in its dust form. It's involved in many mid-tech machines. You should mine it - it will become more useful in the future

*[[Tin]]. It is required for many things, but it is fairly common.

*[[Copper]]. Like Tin, it is required for most things in IC, such as cables, so you must gather a good stock in the beginning. Like Tin, there's plenty in the world.

*Iron. '''Every''' machine uses Iron, so it will be the ore you must hunt the most. You will be always short of Iron.

*Coal. It's value was increased, so if you want torches or furnace fuel, use Charcoal. Use Coal for other, more important things. [[Dusts|Coal Dust]] is used to build [[Solar Collector|Solar Collectors]], it's a more efficient [[Fuel]], and lots of things like the nano-suit use it. In others worlds, you might not care about Coal, but in IC, its invaluable.

*[[Uranium]]. You will need it to power your future nuclear reactor or to craft a nuke to blow up a mountain. Besides that, they are not involved in other recipes. They are rarer than other ores, but can be found at every layer. You will need an iron pickaxe to gather them.

[[file:first_steps7.png |500px| link=|center]]

Further away in the cave:

*Redstone: Good news: it’s much faster to mine with IC (Alblaka fixed the bug Mojang left); it will not take you ages, like I said in the beginning of that part. The Redstone is involved in most parts of IC crafting, especially the basic ones. We need some for crafting the first part of a machine, and later, other things.

*Diamond: Ha the diamond, everybody runs after them, try to get 3 of them and keep them in a chest, we will craft something awesome with them. You should know we can craft an industrial diamond with coal, I’ll show you later. There is something else to do with them other than waste them in tools or one-use armor.

*It's not shown here, but you know it: the Lapis-lazuli. Involved in the more advanced machines, you need '''BLOCKS''' of lapis to craft them, so if you find them now, just keep them until you have need of them

-Lava: I know, it’s not a mineable resource, but it’s used to power one of the most powerful generators: the [[Geothermal Generator]]. Keep in mind where are some lava lakes are to go back to later.

-Obsidian: you need some Obsidian for more than one reason: to go in the Nether, because you will need some glowing dust for mid-tech machines. The Obsidian is the only thing that can resist a nuke, keep in mind the nuclear reactor can make a nice hole. And Obsidian is a part of crafting an Industrial Diamond.

You know what you can gather under the surface, continue to collect some resources and go back to your base for the next step.

Now you’re safe at your base, you could smelt some of the ore you gathered from your trip, but be patient and don’t smelt any more ore than you must. Soon you will be able to craft an incredible machine: the [[Macerator]], which will give you 2 ore [[dust]] from one ore and other stuff I'll explain later.
However, before you build a Macerator, you need an Extractor and a Generator, but to build them, you must craft some Electric circuits, which need some Cables. Yeah, it seems complicated, and it is. That's why I'm writing a little tutorial just for you.

=== Iron Furnace ===

One of the first IC2-related things you'll probably want to create is an [[Iron Furnace]]. This is an upgrade over the regular Furnace from vanilla Minecraft (a.k.a. Stone Furnace by IC2 users). It operates faster and uses fuel more efficiently. Click on the link for details. There are two recipes available, but you should go with the one that uses less Iron:

{|
|-
|{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=|B1=Iron|C1=
|A2=Iron|B2=|C2=Iron
|A3=Iron|B3=Furnace|C3=Iron
|Output=Iron Furnace
}}
|}

All you need for this is five Iron Ore and one piece of Charcoal (or several pieces of Wood) for fuel. Smelt five Iron Ore into ingots in your regular stone Furnace, then pick up your Furnace and use it to craft an Iron Furnace as shown above. An Iron Furnace is an important part of making a Generator later, so making it now lets you use it until we get to that step.

=== Extractor ===

''You can optionally exchange the Extractor with the Macerator listed below if you have several Rubber trees nearby.''

For this project you'll need:
* 6 Sticky Resin
* 3 Copper Ore
* 9 Iron Ore
* 2 Redstone

You remember the Sticky Resin you kept in the chest? Take it, and your Copper Ingots too. We will create some [[Copper Cable]]s. You see it takes 6 Rubber and 3 Copper Ingots for every 6 cables. Later you will need a large amount of them, but first you want just enough to make an Extractor. Once you have that, you can make Rubber much more efficiently.

Smelt your 6 Sticky Resin in any furnace to get 6 [[Rubber]].

{|
|{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Rubber|B1=Rubber|C1=Rubber
|A2=Copper|B2=Copper|C2=Copper
|A3=Rubber|B3=Rubber|C3=Rubber
|Output=Insulated Copper Cable|OA=6
|Output-link=Insulated Copper Cable
}}
|}

Prepare one batch of 6 [[Cable|cables]] using the recipe that uses 6 Rubber and 3 Copper Ingots.

Smelt 9 Iron Ore into Iron Ingots, and then smelt the Iron Ingots again to get 9 [[Refined Iron]].

{|
|{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Insulated Copper Cable|B1=Insulated Copper Cable|C1=Insulated Copper Cable
|A2=Redstone|B2=Refined Iron|C2=Redstone
|A3=Insulated Copper Cable|B3=Insulated Copper Cable|C3=Insulated Copper Cable
|Output=Electronic Circuit
}}
|}

Now we will craft our first [[Electronic Circuit]]. You need 6 [[Cable|cables]], 2 Redstone, and one [[Refined Iron]]. Like all other things on that page, it’s the base of the industry, so you'll be using it a lot.

Next we must craft the recipe of all machines: the [[Machine Block]].

{|
|{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Refined Iron|B1=Refined Iron|C1=Refined Iron
|A2=Refined Iron|C2=Refined Iron
|A3=Refined Iron|B3=Refined Iron|C3=Refined Iron
|Output=Machine
}}
|}

Just take 8 [[Refined Iron]] and draw a box with them in the craft interface.

FINALLY we can craft our first machine. We just need 4 more [[Treetap|tree taps]]. Take 20 planks and craft them. After that, put the 4 tree taps, the machine block, and the [[Electronic Circuit]] on the crafting bench and '''TADA''' you can plant your [[Extractor]] where you want. Be careful though: you can’t remove any machine by hand. It will be destroyed if you do. You will need a [[Wrench|special tool]] made with a [[Bronze|new metal]]. We will see that later.

{|
{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Treetap|B1=Machine|C1=Treetap
|A2=Treetap|B2=Electronic Circuit|C2=Treetap
|Output=Extractor
}}
|}

Ok, you have your Extractor, but how does it work? You need '''ELECTRICITY''', made by a '''[[Generator|GENERATOR]]'''. Now you know what we need to make next.

=== Generator ===

For this project you'll need:
* 2 Sticky Resin (using Extractor)
* 3 Copper Ore
* 8 Tin Ore
* 4 Redstone
* 8 Cobblestone
* 8 Iron Ore

There are 2 ways to craft a [[Generator]]:

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=|B1=RE Battery|C1=
|A2=|B2=Machine|C2=
|A3=|B3=Furnace|C3=
|linkB3=
|Output=Generator
}}

First, you can use a [[RE Battery]], a [[Machine Block]] and a Furnace (8 Iron needed).

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=|B1=RE Battery|C1=
|A2=Refined Iron|B2=Refined Iron|C2=Refined Iron
|A3=|B3=Iron Furnace|C3=
|linkB2=|linkC2=
|linkB3=
|Output=Generator
}}

Or, you can use a [[RE Battery]], 3 [[Refined Iron]] and an [[Iron Furnace]] (8 Iron needed).

Both recipes cost the same amount of Iron overall, but the second recipe requires less smelting. '''Do no use your existing Iron Furnace.''' You will need it later, and you will need something to smelt with in the meantime.

I know you are asking yourself: How do I create an [[RE Battery]]? Let's do that now!

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=|B1=Insulated Copper Cable|C1=
|A2=Tin|B2=Redstone|C2=Tin
|A3=Tin|B3=Redstone|C3=Tin
|Output=RE Battery
}}
1 Cable, 4 Tin and 2 Redstone. Easy, no?

Time to remember that recipe.

You need to assemble two [[RE Battery|Rechargeable Batteries]]. One is needed to build the Generator, and the second is needed to power your Extractor.

But wait! You just used your last [[Cable]]. It’s time to craft more, but this time we will not waste great quantities of resin. Go back in front of your [[Extractor]], put 2 [[Sticky Resin]] into the top hole, and put some Redstone into the bottom hole (pure Redstone is like a 1 use low-efficient battery, but it works). With the Extractor, you get 3 Rubber for each Sticky Resin instead of just 1. Next smelt 3 Copper Ore into Copper Ingots. Craft a batch of 6 Insulated Copper Cables with your [[Rubber]].

Lastly, smelt 8 Tin Ore into Tin Ingots.

Now you can assemble your two RE Batteries.

Next create a regular Furnace and follow one of the two recipes above to craft the [[Generator]].

Don't place the generator next to anything; I’ll explain why in the wiring section. Put your empty battery in the upper slot and put some (char)coal or other things that burn in the lower slot. You will need 2.5 (char)coal to fill up a single battery. I usually don't worry about completely filling my battery at this point. Feel free to make more RE Batteries. However, we'll be adding a cable shortly which will make the batteries unnecessary.

The empty Rechargeable Batteries can stack up to 16, but the fully charged ones can’t be stacked. It’s the drawback of the re-usability. You can place a chest right next to the generator and it will gather your full batteries.

For now, you can use a partially or fully charged battery to power the [[Extractor]]. This will give you a lot more [[Rubber]] for making [[Cable|cables]], which in turn will make it easier to build other machines.

=== Macerator ===

For this project you'll need:
* 3 Flint
* 2 Cobblestone
* 9 Iron Ore
* 2 Sticky Resin (using Extractor)
* 3 Copper Ore
* 2 Redstone

And now, ladies and gentlemen, the moment you’ve all been waiting for: the incredible '''[[Macerator|MACERATOR]]''' which can double your mining productivity. Craft another [[Electronic Circuit|electronic circuit]], another [[Machine Block]] and collect the needed Cobblestone and Flint. If you didn't already know, you occasionally get Flint when you break Gravel blocks.

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Flint|B1=Flint|C1=Flint
|A2=Cobblestone|B2=Machine|C2=Cobblestone
|B3=Electronic Circuit
|Output=Macerator
}}

Put your ore in the upper slot, and a battery in the bottom one, and wait for 2 [[Dusts|dust]] to magically appear from one ore, then, put that dust in an [[Electro Furnace]] (actually any furnace) and you will have 2 ingots for one ore. What, you don’t know how to create an [[Electro Furnace]]? It will be our next step in this long section.

You must know that the [[Macerator]] can do more things than create [[Dusts|dust]] from ore. It can create dust from coal too. The [[Dusts|coal dust]] is used in a lot of things.
The [[Macerator]] can make Flint out of Gravel. This may not seem so, but it’s really useful. It can also make Cobblestone from smooth Stone, and incredibly, make SAND out of Cobblestone. Cool, isn’t it?

Note: It's easier to store ores and Macerate as needed since dusts use up twice the chest space.

=== Electro Furnace ===

For this project you'll need:
* 1 Iron Furnace (existing)
* 2 Sticky Resin (using Extractor)
* 2 Copper Ore (using Macerator)
* 4 Redstone

The [[Electro Furnace]] will allow you to smelt using electricity instead of using Char(Coal). This is where you'll say goodbye to your Iron Furnace.

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|B1=Electronic Circuit
|A2=Redstone|B2=Iron Furnace|C2=Redstone
|Output=Electro Furnace
}}

I know, it’s another [[Electronic Circuit|circuit]] to craft, but I warned you it will be everywhere.

Like the other furnaces, you put the stuff you want to heat in the upper part, and a battery in the bottom. It's 12.5% faster than the Iron Furnace, and there is no energy waste. If there is nothing left in the top, it immediately stops consuming energy.

You now have 1 [[Extractor]], 1 [[Generator]], 1 [[Macerator]] and 1 [[Electro Furnace]]. It’s not much. If you think you can use more things, you're right.

=== BatBox ===

Adding a [[BatBox]] will provide a much larger energy storage buffer for your Generator and therefore simplify its operation. You'll need three Rechargeable Batteries to build it.

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Wooden Planks|B1=Insulated Copper Cable|C1=Wooden Planks
|A2=RE Battery|B2=RE Battery|C2=RE Battery
|A3=Wooden Planks|B3=Wooden Planks|C3=Wooden Planks
|Output=BatBox
}}

Run Copper Cable from the output face of the BatBox to your machines. Don't make the cable longer than four segments to avoid wasting energy. Once you have the machines connected to the BatBox via cable, you won't need to use batteries to run them anymore. Place your Generator on the opposite side of the BatBox from the Output facing. If you find you need to change the direction of the BatBox's output facing, you'll need to look at [[#The Power of Bronze|The Power of Bronze]] section below for information on how to make a Bronze Wrench.

BatBoxes can be daisy-chained to provide more EU storage. They can also be used to break up lengths of cable avoid energy loss. The maximum length you can have of Copper Cable is four before it loses 1 [[EU/t]]. By placing a BatBox at the end of four segments of Copper Cable, you can then go another four segments without energy loss. Keep these ideas in mind as you expand.

=== Solar Panel ===

Next you can add a [[Solar Panel]] to reduce your Coal/Charcoal usage. Keep in mind that Solar Panels require an unobstructed view of the sky and they only work in the daytime.

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Coal Dust|B1=Glass|C1=Coal Dust
|A2=Glass|B2=Coal Dust|C2=Glass
|A3=Electronic Circuit|B3=Generator|C3=Electronic Circuit
|Output=Solar Panel
}}

Connect your Solar Panel (with or without a cable) to the top of the BatBox. Now your BatBox will receive a constant trickle from the Solar Panel and can also receive energy from your Generator. Don't make long cables. If your cable to your Solar Generator is more than four segments long, you won't get any power since Copper Cable loses 1 EU for every five segments, rounded down.

You can also connect Solar Panels using [[Tin Cable]]s, which have a much longer range, but since it can't be insulated, it can shock you or even electrocute (kill) you. Be careful.

=== Etcetera ===

For more production, craft 1 more [[Generator]], 2 [[Macerator|Macerators]] and 2 [[Electro Furnace|Electro Furnaces]], and all will be faster.

[[File:solarflowertop.png|400px| link=|left]]
[[File:solarflowerbottom.png|400px| link=|right]]
 
<center>''To provide a significant amount of energy from solar, you'll need a lot of Solar Panels.''</center>

 
 

You can see the inside of my little home, 3 Macerators, 3 Electro Furnaces, 1 Extractor, 1 Generator in view and 2 unknown machines. You can see I’ve put a chest in front of my generator to gather the charged batteries when I stalk outdoors.

[[file:first_steps20.png |650px| link=|center]]

== The Power of Bronze ==

Now you have a small, but fully functional base that allows you to get twice as many ingots for every mining run. Unfortunately, you can’t move any of the machines or you'll have to rebuild it from scrap.

Now we will craft the engi-friend tool: the [[Bronze Wrench]]. The Bronze Wrench is made from [[Bronze|BRONZE]]. I can hear your little voice: "''A new ore I haven't found? How can it be so rare?''" '''YOU FOOL''', [[Bronze]] is made from '''COPPER + TIN'''.

{|
|-
|{{Grid/Crafting Table

|Output=Bronze Dust|OA=2}}
||{{Grid/Machine
|Type=Electro Furnace
|Top=Bronze Dust
|Bottom=RE Battery (Charged)
|Output=Bronze}}
|}

You need to use a Macerator to grind Copper and Tin into dust, then take the dust from those 2 ores and mix them in a 3:1 ratio (location in the crafting grid doesn’t matter). This gives you Bronze dust.
To smelt Bronze Dust into ingots, put them in a furnace.

You'll need five Bronze Ingots to make a Bronze Wrench:
{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Bronze|A2=Bronze
|B2=Bronze|B3=Bronze
|C1=Bronze|C2=Bronze
|Output=Wrench
|Output-link=Bronze Wrench}}

The Recipes and Resources page has a list of all available [[Recipes and Resources#Tools|Bronze tools]].

'''Iron!'''
A very important topic. Every machine is based on Iron. It also costs a lot of Iron for minecarts and rails. ''But we have bronze!'' Why we can't use bronze for rails?

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Bronze|A2=Bronze|A3=Bronze
|B2=Stick
|C1=Bronze|C2=Bronze|C3=Bronze
|Output=Rail|OA=8}}

The use of a Bronze Wrench is incredibly easy: just right click on the machine you want to remove; be careful, if the machine wasn’t empty you will lose everything it contained. And sometimes you can make a ''mistake'', and you can’t retrieve the machine you craft, its unlucky, but it happens. Only 4 machines can be retrieved safely every time: [[MFE Unit]], [[HV Transformer]], [[Terraformer]] and '''[[Miner|MINERs]]'''.
Also, you can craft armor from Bronze.

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Bronze|A2=Bronze|A3=Bronze
|B2=Bronze|B3=Bronze
|C1=Bronze|C2=Bronze|C3=Bronze
|Output=Bronze Chestplate}}

== Second steps ''By KuglicsL'' ==

=== Electric Wrench ===
If you find your Bronze Wrenches keep wearing out, I suggest upgrading your Bronze Wrench to an [[Electric Wrench]].

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|C1=Wrench
|B2=Electronic Circuit
|A3=RE_Battery
|Output=Electric Wrench
}}
The Electric Wrench works the same way, but using it doesn't decrease its durability. You just need to recharge it, which is easy enough.

The Recipes and Resources page has a list of all available [[Recipes and Resources#Electric|power tools]].

=== Automated Mining ===
Now we have some machines, but don't stop mining. Pardon, mining. The [[Miner]].
It's a very good machine for lazy people. But if you want one, you must work hard.

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Electronic Circuit|B1=Machine|C1=Electronic Circuit
|B2=Mining Pipe
|B3=Mining Pipe
|Output=Miner
}}

For the mining pipe, you need 6 Refined iron and a treetap:

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Refined Iron|A2=Refined Iron|A3=Refined Iron
|B3=Treetap|C1=Refined Iron|C2=Refined Iron|C3=Refined Iron
|Output=Mining Pipe
}}

For a working miner, you have to craft another two things:
First, you need a scanner. There are two types: an [[OD Scanner]], or a more precise, energy-eating [[OV Scanner]].

{|
|-
|{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A2=Electronic Circuit |B1=Glowstone Dust |C2=Electronic Circuit

|B1=Glowstone Dust|B2=Advanced Circuit|B3=OD Scanner
|C2=Glowstone Dust|C3=Insulated Copper Cable
|Output=OV Scanner
}}
|}

The OD Scanner scans a 5x5 area and submits the results on the player's screen. The OV Scanner scans a 9x9 area, and also submits the results on the player's screen. Either one can be used in the miner.
The second item your miner needs is a [[Mining Drill]].

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A2=Refined Iron|A3=Refined Iron
|B1=Refined Iron|B2=Electronic Circuit|B3=RE Battery (Charged)
|C2=Refined Iron|C3=Refined Iron
|Output=Mining Drill}}

The mining drill is a useful item. It can mine stone fast, but if that speed isn't enough, you can craft a [[Diamond Drill]]. It's also a hand-held tool, not just an item for the Miner.

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A2=Diamond|B1=Diamond|C2=Diamond
|B2=Mining Drill|Output=Diamond Drill}}

Put the drill and the scanner in the miner with a few mining pipes, give them energy, and go to the bed, relax, watch TV, but don't do hard jobs!

=== MFE Unit ===

Now, we have one more machine, and we can power them with solar panels. But what will we do when BatBox runs out of energy at night? We want a bigger storage unit!
For that job, there is the [[MFE Unit]]. It can store 600,000 EU, as much as 15 BatBoxes!! If you can empty a fully loaded MFE Unit during a night, you are a very spendthrift player.
But! It isn't cheap. You must have at least <big>FOUR</big> diamonds! Go to layer 1-16, and search for some diamonds.
Can you find four diamonds? Are they genuine? Okay. Craft them to Energy Crystals!

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Redstone|A2=Redstone|A3=Redstone
|B1=Redstone|B2=Diamond|B3=Redstone
|C1=Redstone|C2=Redstone|C3=Redstone
|Output=Energy Crystal}}
Craft a machine, search for 4 cables, and craft a MFE Unit like this:
{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Insulated Copper Cable|A3=Insulated Copper Cable|C1=Insulated Copper Cable|C3=Insulated Copper Cable
|A2=Energy Crystal|B1=Energy Crystal|B3=Energy Crystal|C2=Energy Crystal|B2=Machine
|Output=MFE Unit}}
Now, we can storage a lot of EU for difficult times.

=== Canning Machine ===

Uhh. I have got hunger. Eat a sandwich! But... Food... The Canning machine! It is a cheap, useful, and multipurpose machine. It can be used for filling [[Tin Can]]s with food, and fill [[Fuel Can]]s with biofuel or coalfuel.
Craft it!

Since food comes in all shapes and sizes, some food fits in a few cans, while other foods need more than a few cans. The '''FOOD-TIN CAN''' list can be found here:[[Food List]]

=== Geothermal Generator ===

Remember that lava lake you found waaaaay back when you made your first trip in the mines? Now it's time to take advantage of it with a [[Geothermal Generator]]. Now, we will craft it! We will supply it with lava cells. To make lava cells, take a few tin.

=== Compressor ===

''Uhh...'' We have got some energy. I want to '''MINE''', but I don't like pickaxes, and I hate tapping my toes waiting for that Miner to get everything. Time to craft something hot and shiny: the [[Mining Laser]]! But first, we need another, slightly less shiny machine: a [[Compressor]]. Smelt some Cobblestone, craft a circuit, and then a Machine Block!
{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Stone|A2=Stone|A3=Stone

=== Mining Laser ===

Compress 4 [[Advanced Alloy]], craft another two energy crystals, and an [[Advanced Circuit]]. 

'''It's very expensive!'''
* I know! But if you want mine with style... 
'''When will we finish that laser?''' 
*Now!

To charge the mining laser, put it in the MFE Unit. Let the laser charge for awhile, then head back to your mine. To change the firing mode, hold '''M''' and '''right-click'''. The firing modes can be found here:[[Mining Laser]].
Every firing mode have advantage and disadvantage. The default firing mode is the mining mod. It's balanced.
Now, use your weapon, mine resources, because soon we will start a new chapter. Listen to a good music, chop down trees, get some cobblestone, manage your farm. Please, '''''RELAX'''''.

==<big>Way to the industry</big> ==

We do a lot of jobs, we have got a little house, and a few machines. '''BUT'''.
Why don't we make a big house for our machines? I said, that keep in your mind a big, flat place. If it takes a lot of time, to go to your flat place, we will craft a Teleporter, or a Terraformer.

For a Teleporter, you need a lot of energy, two metal blocks, some glowstone dust, and some coal dust.
For a Terraformer, you need energy, two TFBP, an advanced machine, and some glowstone dust.

Tutorial:Nuclear Power

2012-01-28T02:07:23Z

Immibis: ic2 nerfs obsidian

== Nuclear Physics 101 ==

Welcome, to the Industrial Craft School of Nuclear-arity! 
Here, we shall give some tips and tricks to avoid turning your '''new home''' into a '''melting slag heap'''!

=== Step 1: Finding [[Uranium_Ore|Uranium Ore]] ===

There is no easy way to find Uranium Ore short of mining, mining, mining. It appears randomly in '''very''' small veins, and has been seen on the surface at sea level. It also appears rarely in the walls of caverns. It must be mined with an Iron or better Pickaxe, and will drop 1×[[Uranium]] for every 1×Ore that is successfully mined.

=== Step 2: My First Reactor(tm) ===

The Chernobyl-2 [[Nuclear Reactor]] is expensive to build, relying as it does on hard-to-obtain elements like Glowstone and energy-intensive materials like [[Advanced Alloy|Advanced Alloy Plates]]. Don't expect to build one in your first week.

=== Step 3: Finding Your 3-Mile Island ===

Siting your [[Nuclear Reactor]] is crucial! While it can be removed using a [[Wrench]], the possibility of destroying your precious machine in the process makes this a risky proposition. Ideally you'll have a lake or ocean nearby; the Chernobyl-2 works best (and safest) when surrounded by a cube of water.

=== Step 4: Heavy Water ===

In SMP environs, you may wish to site your reactor somewhere more... secluded. Building a Reactor Containment Vessel will be essential. Nothing less than [[Reinforced Stone]] should be used in the construction. Using buckets to place water as you build should allow you to create the necessary cube of water surrounding your Reactor. Use a [[Reinforced Stone Door]] for access. Ensure that there is sufficient blast shielding to minimize destruction of property in the case of an accident!

=== Step 5: The Green Glow ===

Ok, so now you've got a Reactor suspended in water, with or without cables attached. You've got at least one piece of [[Uranium Ore]]. Congratulations, world domination your nuclear future awaits!

=== Step 6: Cells of Plenty ===

But, you can't just use raw uranium, you have to [[Compressor|Compress]] it into shiny new [[Uranium Fuel Ingot|Uranium Fuel Ingots]], then shove those ingots into an [[Empty Cell]] to make a [[Uranium Cell]]! These are the only source of power generation in a Reactor. Now process the rest of your Uranium Ore into Uranium Cells. Never mix fuel ingots with gunpowder in an attempt to make a nuke!

=== Step 7: The Soothing Hum of Power ===

So, here is the point of the Nuclear Reactor. By placing 1 more [[Uranium Cell]] into the Reactor and surrounding it with [[Coolant Cell]]s. Each Cell will provide a staggering '''ONE MILLION EU''' of Energy, and your Reactor outputs '''5 EU/s.''' That's equivalent to a coal-burning [[Generator]], but the uranium lasts so much longer than coal!

=== Step 8: Holy Fukushima! (with apologies to the easily offended!) ===

If the proper precautions are taken, a Nuclear explosion can be mostly contained and the damage sustained minimal. In the wrong situation though, a Nuclear disaster can leave you with a pretty impressive hole in the ground where your prized workshop used to be. ALWAYS ensure your reactor has '''at least''' 1 square of water surrounding it in every possible direction, and screen it with [[Reinforced Stone]] for maximum protection.

=== Optional Step ===
Nuclear reactors are very valuable and without a doubt have a decent learning curve.

A complete breakdown of how each reactor component works is available on the IC2 forum [http://forum.industrial-craft.net/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=446 Here]

The Mass Fabricator is an advanced machine that requires 1,000,000 EU to generate [[Matter]]. It is a considerably high-cost piece of technology that is capable of producing [[Matter]]. This material in return is capable of creating almost everything in Minecraft itself, with exceptions (i.e. Bedrock)

[[Scrap]] will greatly increase the speed and reduce the cost of the fabricator by 6 times. [[Scrap]] is consumed in the process, a total of 34 scrap is needed to create matter at maximum efficiency. To produce enough scrap to run the fabricator constantly, you need one [[recycler]] for every 17.86 eu/t input (approximately).



The blueprints of [[Matter]] are secret due to the technology being relatively new.

'''NOTE''': The machine requires electricity in order to consume the material as well. It will not rely on said material for power at all.

Currently, this and the [[terraformer]] are the only machines that are capable of accepting High Voltage from an [[HV Transformer]] or [[MFSU]] directly. If your mass fabricator is far away from your power source, this would be ideal. However, keep in mind that inadvertently using the Extreme Voltage side of the HV Transformer "will cause an explosion of considerable force, similar to a nuke" according to Manito.

Sending a redstone signal to the mass fabricator will stop it from consuming power.

The Electro Furnace is an improved and more costly version of the [[Iron Furnace]].

The benefits of this device compared to the Iron Furnace are that the Electric Furnace is 12.5% faster and, as the name indicates, uses electricity. By running on electricity instead of burning items, it is able to shut off immediately upon finishing (thus avoiding wasted energy). You can best take advantage of this by having some form of energy storage between the Electro Furnace and the generator(s).

The Electro Furnace uses approximately 307 EU per operation. When connected to a Generator, one piece of (char)coal will provide 13 operations. On the other hand, an Iron Furnace uses 400 EUs per operation (Coal has an EU yield of 4000 in a [[Generator]] and provides 10 operations in an Iron Furnace) and it doesn't stop when there is nothing left to smelt. Additionally, an Electro Furnace can be powered by alternative sources such as [[Solar Panel]]s.

== Recipe ==

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|B1=Electronic Circuit
|A2=Redstone|B2=Iron Furnace|C2=Redstone
|Output=Electro Furnace
}}

== Usage ==

Simply add something to smelt in the top slot and supply the Electric Furnace with [[EU]].
*The lower slot is used to provide power from a [[RE Battery]] or other energy storage item if a direct [[Cable]] connection is not available.

Magnetizer

2012-01-26T01:40:59Z

Immibis:

{{IC²}}
The Magnetizer can be used to turn [[Iron Fence]]s stacked onto one another into a powerful alternative to a normal ladder. Upon powering the Magnetizer, it idles without consuming any [[EU]]. However, when a Magnetized Iron Fence is approached by a player who has equipped metal shoes (Iron, Gold, Bronze, Nano or Quantum), the Magnetizer begins consuming 2 [[EU|EU/t]], while propelling the player vertically upwards at a great speed.

Iron Fences can be attached both to the bottom and to the top of the Magnetizer. A single Magnetizer can power 20 Fences above it and 20 Fences below it. When fences are attached to both sides of the Magnetizer, they do not affect each other, i.e. a single Magnetizer can service a 41 block high elevator (Magnetizer in the middle, 20 Fences up, 20 Fences down).

Uranium Cell

2012-01-20T05:41:45Z

Immibis: doubled yield in 1.337+

{{IC²}}

The Uranium Cell is the main component of nuclear fission in a [[Nuclear Reactor]]. Every Uranium Cell has the potential to produce enormous amounts of energy, between 2-10 million [[EU]]. However, during the process of fission, the Cell generates excessive amounts of heat, which must be eliminated by the use of different cooling elements.

The Uranium Cell can be obtained either by combining [[Refined Uranium]] with an [[Empty Cell]], or combining a [[Re-Enriched Uranium Cell]] with [[Dusts|Coal Dust]].

Wind Mills are [[Generator]]s that utilize the energy of the wind to produce [[EU]]. They are the most unstable and unpredictable type of generators, depending greatly upon both placement and pure luck.

== Recipe ==

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Iron|C1=Iron
|B2=Generator
|A3=Iron|C3=Iron
|Output=Windmill
}}

== Usage ==

Optionally place an [[RE Battery]] in the upper slot. The Wind Mill will charge the battery or output power at a rate of 0-4 [[EU|EU/t]] depending on placement.

{{Grid/Machine
|Type=Windmill
|Top=RE Battery (Charged)
|Bottom=
|Output=
}}

{{Energy|Input=|Output=0-4 [[EU]]/t (varying)|Storage=-}}

== Detailed Mechanics ==

- A Wind Mill will produce on average 250 EU per Minecraft day multiplied by its height in the world.
This number varies '''greatly''' due to the highly unpredictable and constantly changing wind strength in the world; this number can be anything from 0 to 1000 EU. (Although numbers far below 150 or far above 320 are uncommon )

- A Wind Mill's efficiency can be hindered by any kind of block placed in a 9x9x7 area around it.

Top view:

[[File:windmill_area_top.png|176px|link=]]

Side view:

[[File:windmill_area_side.png|176px|link=]]

It's best to have the cable from the Wind Mill underneath it and down at least two blocks before turning.

- For each obstructing block, a Wind Mill's effective height lowers by 1.

- A Wind Mill treats non-block items like torches and Redstone wires as obstructions too.

- A Wind Mill doesn't treat the roof of the world as an obstruction.

- Wind Mills produce 50% extra EU/t in a thunderstorm, and 20% when it's raining but not in a thunderstorm.

- If a wind mill produces more than 5 EU/t, it has a chance of breaking. If a wind mill's effective height is no more than 80, it cannot break.

Examples:

A Wind Mill placed as high as possible (layer 126), with no obstructions (apart from the 2 cable blocks under the wind mill) will produce roughly 31000 EU (250 * 124) a day or 1.3 EU/t overall.

A Wind Mill that was placed near bedrock (layer 10) with no obstructions (not including the cable again) produced 2000 EU (250 * 8) a day (0.1 EU/t overall).
