Fluids

Industrial Elixir adds three fluids: UU-Matter, Compressed Air, and Hot Spring. All three behave like water (density 1000, viscosity 1000, temperature 300) and flow like normal liquids.

UU-Matter

fluid_uu_bucket UU-Matter Bucket

UU-Matter is an endgame fluid used to duplicate items. It is produced by the Matter Generator and consumed by the Replicator.

  • Production: The Matter Generator converts 1,000,000 E per 1 mB of UU-Matter. Adding Scrap to the input slot boosts production by (up to 5000 scrap amplifier).
  • Consumption: The Replicator uses UU-Matter (plus energy) to duplicate any item that was scanned into a Pattern Storage Crystal.
  • Storage: Can be stored in the UU-Matter Bucket or UU-Matter Cell (uu_cell, 1000 mB).

Compressed Air

fluid_air_bucket Compressed Air Bucket

Compressed Air is a fluid used by the Blast Furnace. Each Blast Furnace recipe consumes 1000 mB of compressed air.

  • Storage: Compressed Air Bucket or Air Cell (air_cell, 1000 mB).
  • Obtaining: Can be bottled from an air fluid source, or made by compressing an Empty Cell in the Compressor (→ Air Cell).

Hot Spring

hot_spring_still

Hot Spring water is a warm fluid that provides a healing effect.

  • Regeneration: Standing inside a source block of hot spring water grants Regeneration II for 3 seconds (re-applied while you stay in it).
  • Source conversion: The game rule hot_spring_source_conversion (default true) controls whether hot spring sources can generate infinitely. Set it with the command /gamerule hot_spring_source_conversion true|false. When false, hot spring source blocks no longer refill, so you cannot create an infinite hot-spring pool.
  • Storage: Hot Spring Bucket or Hot Spring Cell (hot_spring_cell, 1000 mB).
  • Power: The Fluid Generator burns hot spring at 1 mB/t to produce 1 E/t (same as water).

Fluid Cells & Buckets

All fluids can be stored and transported in buckets (stack of 1) or cells (stack of 16, 1000 mB each).

Fluid Transport

Fluids are moved with fluid pipes (see Energy System) and stored in the Fluid Tank (16 buckets). Fluid-processing machines each have a built-in 16-bucket tank and consume 1000 mB per craft.

Hot Spring Waterlogging

Certain stairs (Rubber Stairs and Cobblestone Stairs "Hot spring") can be waterlogged with hot spring water in addition to normal water. Right-click a stair with a Hot Spring Bucket to fill it with hot spring; right-click with a water bucket for normal waterlogging.
