Welcome to the Biome Extractors Mod wiki!

Here you can find documentation regarding basic features, configurations and loot tables of this mod!

Overview

This mod adds a new type of furniture called “Biome Extractor” to the game. When placed, this machine will automatically generate materials related to the biome it’s in and then store them in an adjacent chest. For example, an Extractor will yield Wood, among other things, while in a Forest biome, and Cactus while in a Desert.

Biome Extractors come in seven tiers. They all have their own extraction rate and success chance, and more powerful extractors are often able to extract more advanced items than the weaker ones.

Biome Extractors are upgraded by using them as material for the next tier. The first tier, however, uses an Extractinator as a base. It's for this exact reason that the mod also adds Extractinators to the Mechanic's shop.

Other features

• Biome Extractors react to wire signals by turning on and off. You can see at a glance if an Extractor is inactive because its sprite will not be animated.
• Right-clicking an Extractor will open a GUI that contains the current state of the machine. If the machine is in one or more biomes it can extract items from, it will also say what those biomes are and show what it's extracting from them.
• Crafting ingredients for all tiers called Extractor Upgrade Kits that can also upgrade extractors in-place when left-clicked onto an extractor of their previous tier.
• The mod includes a Biome Scanner item, crafted with 2 Lenses, 5 wires and 2 Gold or Platinum Bars. This tool can be used to scan an area without having to place down an Extractor, and will also mark all Biome Extractors in the world with some icons as long as it stays in your inventory.
• This mod is compatible with Magic Storage, and will be able to insert items inside Magic Storage networks as long as they are adjacent to a Storage Configuration Interface. See the Config page for more information.
• This mod is compatible with the Calamity Mod. Its Calamity-related content is only loaded if the Calamity Mod is enabled.
