Create Mod Steam Engine Guide!

i cant right click the funnel for the deposit with the mechanical arm anyone else have this problem

Would a one by one steam engine work. Like only one fluid tank

Did want to confirm ages later as I cannot immediately see a comment. The lava generator you do NOT need sources over the cauldrons. You can start it with a single source spread over the area. Those will fill and you can cover a wider area. Now you WILL have infinite lava so if you don't use sources for cosmetic appeal you're a monster. But it is in no way required.

Learned a lot, thanks! Really helped solidify things in my head.

Im at school to be a nuclear operator so I am a bit bised but everytime I see steam I think nuclear so I would love if the create mod maybe not in vanila create but some kind of addon like the electircity one to add nuclear power

Now I can recreate the Industrial Revolution in my multiplayer server

This mod is so cool, i just with that i van use it with the older mods like tinker's construct. (the versions are incompatible : ( )

damn
I made this alot harder for myself, i made a train that goes into the nether collects lava thern comes back pumps it and i have a mechanical arm that will take the lava buckets off a conveyer then put them on another one to get rotated aeround the system and it will spout lava onto the empty ones

Better option to feed the blaze burners is to use straws (part of the Create Crafts & Additions add on), and fluid pipes. It allows the blaze burners to take from the pipes connected to them. So instead I use a 2 stage pump system. One pump pulls from the lava farm into a fluid tank for lava. The second pump pulls from the lava tank to the blaze burners. I use clutches and switches so I can turn on and off the feed pump so if I want to the steam engine to shut down I can disable the transfer pump from the tank to build up a supply of lava to use when I need the steam engine running. The pump from the lava farm to the fluid pump is driven by a water wheel so it constantly pumps out any collected lava to the storage tank. The water wheel/lava pump combo is also connected to the engine as well with a clutch, so I can use the water wheel to jump start the steam engine to get some rotation in to start up the water pump connected to the steam engine and the feed pump from the tank to the blaze burners.

How do you get mods

I'm having an issue with my last engine, for some reason, it keeps inverting its own direction of rotation. Anyone knows a simple solution to prevent that ? I mean, I already have an easy fix known as a gearshift, but yeah, would be nice if it just didn't decide to invert its direction of rotation on its own like that.

Didn't they remove steam engines? Or am I being fed misinformation??

If we're assuming the audience has blaze burners, then they also have a way to make brass, so it shouldn't be an issue.

You don't need dripstone blocks, just the dripstone themselves. The lava will drip through essentially any standard block. I use glass.

steam engines ARE expensive, cause a fluid tank is expensive, one barrel 2 copp sheets, engines are expesnive 1 copp block, 1 gold and 1 andesite, and additional copper and a gear for pumps

You can actually use mechanical pumps in a line and they'll power each other like small cogs! You can just build a 3x3 hole with water and place the pumps in a straight line down the middle, powering one which causes the other two to be powered as well

This video got me, I have to get into this mod.

Alternative to a tree farm perhaps a kelp farm since chutes drop the output from furnaces and then can be packed automatically on a mechanical press that both feeds itself as well as excess dried kelp to power the engine unless a bamboo farm is used to cook the kelp which seems a little excessive at that point but idk. 👀

Yes, I really prefer this style of tutorial! I was having many improvement ideas throughout the latter part of the video.

You have earned my subscription, as well as my recommendations. I just wish I knew more Create creators.
I suspect Tango of the tech variety may have been influenced by you as well. Just a feeling I have.

already have one of these bad boys on a server with some mates but im now inspired to do a re-design

A kelp farm is another way to create burnables and you'd probably build one anyway for belts

Don’t know if anyone know this but you can use a straw on a blaze burner to make it accept fluids,then make a ton of bioethanol and you have superheated blaze burners for days

You can use trains to transpory the lava from the nether to the en overworld

Live the videos!

To think, once Create gets localised for 1.21 and we get the vanilla autocrafter all these builds get so much better!

I LIKE IT! Awesome job, please, please keep up the good work.

New to the mod, this was a fantastic intro, thank you!

Wrong. I am the ultimate generator of stress,,,,,units

Try to make an engine that matches the stress units of the creative engine

Thanks a lot for this! Very helpful.

Okay so blaze burners aren't that difficult, but he does leave out the fact that netherrack and iron sheets make an empty blaze burner and you then have to proceed to travel to the nether and capture live blazes

"blaze burners are super cheap"

This helped more than any how to mod pack i've watch. Subscribed.

what my buddy did on our modded server was set up the infinite automatic lava first. it pumped into a giant tank. then the tank fed the blaze burners in the same way you did. he also had a water tank supplying water as well. he considered the blaze cakes but figure lava was more than enough power for a whole base. there's also a mod that adds compatibility between create and immersive engineering.

Blaze burners aren't cheap and don't only take 4 iron plates and a netherack

You have to right click a blaze with an empty blaze burner to get a functional one

Hello, im playing on a 1.16.5 modpack with this mod and i cant create the lava farm with the dripstone have you an idea on how i can produce lava in an other way???

Yeah one of the common add ons makes it possible to generate netherrack by pouring healing potions on cobblestone, which makes a top tier steam engine an insanely complicated but very satisfying setup.

You need a Melon Farm, Netherrack Farm, and a gold farm, which itself is a whole project on its own, then of course you need to farm chickens for the eggs and sugarcane, and then you can finally have all that feed into making blaze cakes infinitely in a massive factory sized engine.

On the plus side tho you do get a healing potion farm out of it among other things.

How make arm do ihs think?

this will be useful, i even have an idea to make the lava farm more reliable in the event the generator over stresses, multiple lava farms stockpiling lava in a tank

If you're doing this in a pack with mystical agriculture, you can fully automate the netherrack too

if you didnt know you can also disable stress units.

Actually you can make Netherrack, grit, cobble stone and lava in mixer produces netherrack blocks. Feed that back in grinder to produce more grit.

ok nice video , but how do i transfer the power please help ;-;

cant u just put lava straight under the tank?

Fantastic - VERY informative & Helpful, thanks!

Do you think you could possibly do a tutorial on gear ratioing and how to make machines faster because I always get confused on that

in a survival create server me and my friend made a fully automatic blaze cake farm for our steam engine and also a lava farm that transport lava buckeds to the overworld and the steam engine produces 580.000 su !!! and a netherack farm but the recipe is from a create addon i think
