Getting Started (BuildCraft)/fr

Qu'est-ce que BuildCraft ?
' est un mod très large qui permet d'avoir de l'automatisation dans Minecraft.

Les plus grands ajouts de BuildCraft au jeu sont les tuyaux (Pipes) et les MJ. Les tuyaux peuvent être utilisés pour des objets, des  et même des. Les MJ sont utilisés pour alimenter en énergie les machines de BuildCraft et les machines compatibles BuildCraft. Par exemple, les machines de Thermal Expansion acceptent les MJ.

Quels mods fonctionnent avec BuildCraft?

 * La question est plutôt quels mods fonctionnent bien avec celui-là. BuildCraft (que j'abrègerai par BC) est en effet un des mods 'fondateurs', pratiquement la moitié des mods du modpack sont ou on à la base commencé comme addons pour BC.
 * À moins que ça soit, ou un de ses addons, et que ce n'est pas ou , il est probable que le mod considéré va très bien fonctionner avec BC, étant donné qu'il a probablement été conçu pour être compatible.
 * Tout. Les tuyaux promènent les items ici et là, et l'ajout de s (circuits logiques) (qui sont compatibles avec de nombreuses machines) se révèlera très utile pour de plus gros réseaux d'automatisation, avec plusieurs mods.

Que devrais-je avoir avant de commencer?

 * Vous devriez avoir toutes les ressources de base nécessaires après votre première expédition minage jusqu'au niveau de l'or/redstone. Bois, Verre, Cobblestone, Pierre, Fer, Or et Redstone.
 * Certaines améliorations de tuyaux nécessitent du ou encore de la.
 * Pour vraiment améliorer votre niveau d'automatisation, vous risquez d'avoir besoin d'une bonne réserve de diamants. Genre quelques douzaines. Mais c'est pour l'équipement le plus avancé que vous en aurez besoin, vous n'en avez pas absolument besoin pour commencer à vous amuser avec BC.

C'est un des mods 'grand-pères', avec IndustrialCraft 2. Ce mod a inventé le transfert d'objets ici et là, et la production d'énergie sous forme de MJ. BC apporte tellement de choses que je vais avoir encore plus de difficulté que d'habitude à faire court, parce qu'il y en a juste trop à dire. Bon, commençons.

Les premiers objets dont vous aller avoir besoin vont vous aider à fabriquer la très utile. Cet outil vous permet de modifier l'orientation des tubes, machines et moteurs. Pour utiliser la clé, placez la dans votre main, et faites un clic droit sur un objet de BC. Plus d'informations à suivre...

Pour commencer, vous aurez besoin d'un.

Transformez le en.

Vous pouvez ensuite crafter la clé à molette.

Tubes
C'est l'une de ces choses qui partent de rien, et pourtant vous change la vie. Basiquement, les tubes sont utilisés pour transporter des choses, que ce soit des items, des liquides, ou même des Minecraft Joules n'importe où, sans que vous avoir à le faire soi-même.

J'aurais envie de dire "c'est tout", mais il faut que je vous parle d'un concept fondamental qui va changer votre perception du jeu. À moins que vous utilisiez les de, il y a de fortes probabilités pour que vous utilisiez beaucoup ces trucs. Ce n'est pas pour discréditer les tubes de RedPower 2, mais les tubes de BuidCraft sont tout simplement les meilleurs pour l'automatisation un tant soit peu avancé.

Alors commençons à parler des tubes. La recette par défaut pour les "" est de placer deux d'un type x de matériaux de chaque côté d'un morceau de verre. Cela produit généralement 8 de ce type de tube. Il est à noter que le matériau dont est fait le tube détermine sa fonction;

Typically you will need to make Transport Pipes and upgrade them to the water proof s, using, or the conductive s, using.

D'autres mods peuvent avoir des types de pipes additionnels, mais voici les pipes de "base" de BC.


 * Les Wooden Pipes nécessitent un pour aspirer. Ce Redstone Engine a besoin d'un signal de Redstone pour fonctionner. Généralement, il n'y a jamais de raison d'arrêter le Redstone Engine tant que le Wooden Pipes est présent.
 * Les Golden Pipes "n'ont pas" besoin d'un signal de Redstone pour accélérer les choses qui le traverse; c'était le cas dans une précédente version, mais le problème a été résolu.
 * Les Transport Pipes, en dehors de ceux en fer et en diamant, sont plutôt idiots quand viennent les intersections, et choisissent une direction aléatoirement. Les Iron Pipes, comme nous l'avons dit, ne renvoient les objets que du côté pour lequel il a été configuré, et les Diamond Pipes trient les objets intelligemment. Pour cette raison, les intersections peuvent devenir un problème dans votre système. Quand un tuyau est à une intersection et que l'une des options est d'aller vers une machine, alors il va choisir aléatoirement d'aller vers la machine ou de continuer tout droit : c'est pourquoi les Sandstone Pipes existent. Il existe aussi des mods qui ajoutent des pipes avec d'autres fonctionnalités aux intersections, mais ils seront abordés dans les guides de leurs mods respectifs.

Raccorder un Furnace (Cas Particulier)
A furnace is a special type of inventory we have to take special consideration over when we want to pipe things into and out of it.

Maintenant, comme nous le savons tous, un four a trois emplacements. Celui du haut pour les objets que nous allons cuire/fondre, celui du bas pour le carburant et celui de droite. Cela signifie que le four a trois emplacements où l'on peut raccorder des pipes, et que si l'on ne place pas les pipes correctement on risque d'obtenir des résultats non désirés.

To pipe items to be smelted/cooked into our furnace we have to attach the pipe to the top of the furnace, fuel we attach to the side and to pipe the smelted/cooked items out we have to attach to the bottom.

Remember, piping out will require the Wooden Transport Pipe or the Emzuli Transport Pipe and an engine with a redstone signal.

Production
Buildcraft invented the MJ, so it is no surprise they have ways of producing it. Currently, there are three types of engines (in BuildCraft);

Engines
Creating engines isn’t too hard, the same basic design works for all of them. They need a piston, glass, a couple of s, and… wait, gears?

Gears
Yeah, Gears are new here. Four sticks will create a. Then you can put the wooden gear in the middle of 4 cobblestone to make a. Same thing up the line to, , and even s. For now, Redstone Engines require wood, Stirling requires Stone, and Combustion requires Iron;

Transportation
So, you now have power. Ehr, how do you transport it? You guessed it - s. To transport MJ from Engines, you need a. After that, you need s or s to transmit power through your network - Wooden Conductive Pipes do not connect to machines.

Alternatively, you can place the engine right next to a machine, but this is far from optimal.

adds a better way to transport MJ - the. You can read about it on the item's article.

Usage
Now that you have a power network, what to do with it?

Autocrafting Table
First off, we’re going to look at an upgrade for the vanilla Crafting Table. Four Wooden Gears around a Crafting Table makes for an ;

This really handy little device can be used to automatically craft things. It also never spits things out, so you can leave items in your crafting table, go back for that one item you forgot, and come back to it. You can also ‘set’ a recipe in an automated crafting table, then pipe in materials, and it will spit the resulting product out. It can even feed from an adjacent chest, in case the recipe calls for things which cannot be stacked.

Pump
Next, we’re going to be looking at a. There’s two pumps in FTB at the moment, the one you are looking for is crafted with a and a. The other one is IC2 related. Looking up the sub-combines shows that you’ll need a good bit of iron for this recipe.

Tank
A Tank can be used to store liquids in, and is fairly easy to craft. You can pump liquids in with s, and you can pump them out with a and a Redstone Engine.

Mining Well
A Mining Well mines blocks directly beneath it. Use Engines to supply power, and place a chest next to it to store the mined goods.

Pump
The Pump is crafted like so.

The Pump looks directly underneath for a liquid source, then it will suck the liquid source up and automatically spit it out into an attached Waterproof Pipe. This machine is an exception to the rule, you do not need a wooden pipe to pump it out, it will automatically do it for you. However, you need to use four Redstone Engines directly attached to the pump to keep it pumping at optimal efficiency.

You can also put a Tank next to the pump, but due to the Tank's tiny capacity (8,000 mB), this is not recommended.

Pumps can:
 * pump water from an to keep your combustion engines cooled (although Thermal Expansion has a better way of doing that with the )
 * pump oil out of the ground to send to a refinery to be turned into fuel for your combustion engines
 * pump lava out of a pool for various uses.

So in general, a Pump is a pretty good machine to have around, particularly if you are wanting to get Combustion Engines running.

Refinery
Next, let’s look at a Refinery.

Refineries turn into Fuel, but they require a good amount of power to do so, so make sure to hook it up to your energy network. You might need to use a Stirling engine to get it going, but after you’ve got a bucket of Fuel, switch it over to a Combustion Engine, because it’s just going to go a lot faster with one.

Now, let’s look at the recipe.

Yes, you’re seeing it right, a diamond gear. That’s four Sticks, four Cobblestone, four Iron, four Gold, and four Diamonds. And three Tanks, which is just some glass. But, it is worth it.

In a Combustion Engine, Oil produces 2 MJ/t, whereas Fuel produces 6 MJ/t. That is tripling your energy production!

Quarry
The next machine we’re going to be looking at is also expensive. In fact, probably the single most expensive individual machine in this mod. It’s also one of the most useful. It’s called a.

Okay, don’t freak out now, I told you this was going to be expensive. Two Diamond Gears, an undamaged Diamond Pick, two Gold Gears, three Iron Gears, and a piece of Redstone. That’s going to come out to 11 Diamonds, 16 Gold, Half a stack of Iron, and some other stuff.

But is it worth it? Oh yes, very much so.

Quarries will automatically mine from whatever level you put it at, all the way down to Bedrock. It also requires a lot of power, like 9 MJ/t at maximum speed. But you won’t ever need to go mining again.

Oh, here’s another cute trick: Put a piece of Lapis on top of a Redstone Torch in your crafting square. See that landmark? Make three of them. Drop one down where you want your quarry to start digging. Now put one on the x plane and one on the z plane to denote the rectangle it is going to dig in. Now drop your quarry directly adjacent to the corner landmark. Now you can dig up to 64 x 64 holes in one shot.

A Quarry will automatically output what it digs into an adjacent chest or pipe, no wooden pipes necessary. I would suggest having some kind of sorting system set up to handle the input, because you’ll be getting a lot of it.

Some people also prefer to dig down to around y-level 40 or so to place their quarry so they don’t completely wreck the landscape and to minimize the amount of Cobblestone and Dirt they get, although this will create large cavernous areas where mobs are very likely to spawn.

Assembly Table
Now comes probably the most expensive piece of infrastructure you’ll ever have to make in this mod, yes even more expensive than that Quarry. Don’t give me that look, it’ll be worth it. Trust me. We’re going to need a lot of diamonds. Like over a dozen of them. We’re also going to need quite a bit of Gold, Iron, Obsidian, and Redstone. We’re also going to want a lot of MJ production. Like probably at least 16-20 MJ/t just devoted to this one system. It’s time to build your.

So yea, that’s a diamond gear, and another diamond. So wait, that’s only six diamonds, what’s up with this ‘over a dozen of them’ stuff? Well, unfortunately the Assembly Table doesn’t run off of regular MJ. All of the activity on the Assembly Table is done with s, which needs to be within three blocks, and they need to have an unobstructed view to the table.

Lasers cost two Diamonds. Each. And if you want them produced at any speed, you’ll want at least four of them. Oh, and you know how the assembly table doesn’t run off of MJ? Lasers do. Each one needs 4 MJ/t to run at optimal efficiency. So be sure you have enough energy production before starting this project.

Laser
''Boohooohooooo! That's your resource chest crying, can you hear it?''

Gates
s are great. They bring logic and automation to your piping. Let’s say you want to conserve fuel, and only want your combustion engines running when something actually wants power. Well, for this, you’ll need to make some Iron Gates and some Red Pipe Wire.

One redstone and one iron ingot makes an. One iron chipset and one makes one  or an. Red Pipe Wire is simply some redstone, iron and Rose Red (throw a rose into your crafting square to get a couple). For this particular setup, either one will work since we are only using one conditional, but for those who are logically minded, you’ll recognize how fun having an AND or OR gate can be.

Now then, gates go on pipes. That’s the only place they go. For this experiment, we’ll be putting an iron gate on the conductive pipe directly attached to a machine which draws power. Run red pipe wiring along the conductive pipe to your combustion engines. Run some redstone behind or underneath them, wherever you can fit it. The gate at the machine should say “Has Work → Red Pipe Signal”, the one near the combustion engines should be “Red Pipe Signal → Redstone Signal”. Now when the machine has work (has something to do) your combustion engines turn on. You can hook up an iron gate to each machine in your network if you like. That way, you won’t be wasting fuel if your factory is idle.

Here’s a cute trick: Combine a gravel with a cobblestone pipe. You get a. This doesn’t pipe anything, but it can be used to run red pipe wire along, and you can put gates on it. So you can run some structure pipes along your engines and put in gates set to trigger redstone signal when it gets a red pipe signal, if necessary. They can also be used to run a red pipe signal across pipes that won’t connect (stone/cobblestone, or regular pipes and liquid pipes and conductive pipes).

That’s only one simple thing. To go into it in full detail would be a guide all its own. The only other gate I’ll mention right now needs an Ender Pearl. It’s called a. It’s used to make an. These things are basically a redstone engine built into the gate, so you can put them on a wooden pipe and not have to worry about where to put the redstone engine or worry about the signal either. And yes, autarchic gates can be triggered with red pipe wire, if you want. You can also tell it to pulse when there is a lack of redstone signal, if you just want it pumping constantly.

That’s it for now. Later on, there will be guides detailing some of the things we’ve touched on, but in greater detail But that should get you started, at least.
