Crop Harvester - TinyModularThings/IC2Classic GitHub Wiki
IndustrialCraft 2 Classic (IC2C) has multiple machines dedicated to Agriculture - one of these is the Crop Harvester.
The Crop Harvester is a Medium-Voltage Machine, and can accept up to 128 EU/t. When it receives 129 EU/t or above, the Crop Harvester will explode; the Crop Harvester also has an Internal Stroage of 50k EU (50,000 EU).
The Crop Harvester has a default "search range" of a 3x3x3 box, for IC2C crops. For every block that is scanned, the Crop Harvester will use 1 EU, and for each harvest the machine will use 20 EU. The Harvester also uses 10 EU for scanning from an "overall list"; this "overall list" scan is rare.
The Crop Harvester has delays for certain things; the easiest way to interpret the entirety of it is through a list.
- If the Crop Harvester has less then 100 EU stored in its Internal Buffer, the Harvester will delay work for 20 ticks (1 Second)
- If the Harvester's Output is jammed, the Harvester will delay work for 20 ticks (1 Second)
- If the Harvester's scan found nothing to harvest, the Harvester will delay work for 120 ticks (6 Seconds)
- After the Harvester has on processed the last target possible, or harvested last crop available to be harvested, will delay work for 120 ticks (6 Seconds)
- If the Harvester has more then 100 EU stored and its output is not jammed, the Harvester will add a Speed Delay onto its counter for a random time between 0-20 ticks (0-1 Seconds)
- When the Harvester is harvesting a Crop, will add a Speed Delay onto its counter for a random time between 0-20 ticks (0-1 Seconds)
The Crop Harvester can accept varying upgrades, and has specific Circumstance-Dependent variables.
- Speed Delay can be changed, but is defaulted at 20 ticks (1 Second)
- Overclockers will decrease Speed Delay by different amounts based on how many are implemented
| Overclocker Upgrades | Speed Delay |
|---|---|
| 0 | 20 ticks (1 Second) |
| 1 | 10 ticks (.5 Second) |
| 2 | 5 ticks (.25 Second) |
| 3 | 2 ticks (.1 Second) |
| 4+ | 0 ticks (0 Seconds) |
- Field Expansion Modules can be inserted in to increase the Harvester's can range; by default is 3x3x3, but can be increased to a maximum of 11x11x11; 1 Block Range to 5 Block Range.
| Field Expansion Module Types | Range Increase |
|---|---|
| Basic Field Expansion Module | 1 Block |
| (Normal) Field Expansion Module | 2 Blocks |
| Advanced Field Expansion Module | 3 Blocks |
The Energy Usage for adding the Field Expansion Module upgrades is not increased, but because more crops are being checked, will slightly slow down the machine and draw more energy.
