What’s new in 1.2

New multiblock and Quick filters

New multiblock Ore refining

Quantum Ore Refinery

Ore goes in, up to five ingots come out. Mekanism’s whole ore-processing chain runs inside one multiblock, with Mekanism’s own recipes.

• 1
  Five levels, x1 to x5

  The level is how many ingots one ore gives: x1 smelts it, x5 dissolves, washes and crystallizes it. An iron ore gives 1 to 5 ingots.

• 2
  One structure, one screen

  A 10 × 4 × 3 structure, run from the controller’s screen: status, the five levels, energy and the four tanks.

• 3
  Quantum/QIO module

  Optional: sends the ingots straight to a Quantum or QIO frequency. Without it, they leave by the output port.

Quick filters Quantum Digital Miner

Quick filters and saved filter lists

Two shortcuts in the New filter window: ready-made ore tag filters, and filter lists saved under a name to load on any miner. Only the filter list changes, every other setting stays as it is.

• 1
  Quick filters

  Ready-made ore tag filters: iron, gold, coal and redstone, plus copper, lapis, diamond, emerald, tin, lead, osmium and uranium when their tag exists. Replace the list with one, or Add it at the end; ores from other mods are included.

• 2
  Configurations

  Save current filters under a name, then load the list on any miner with Replace or Add. Your own library, in the world or on the server: up to 32 lists of 128 filters.
