The Dimensional Laser is an endgame multiblock machine that extracts fluids from a chunk by ripping open a portal into another dimension.
This page describes Voluminous Energy 0.5 (Alpha 2, for 1.21.1, 26.1.2 and 26.2). All numbers are the default values from the startup config and can be changed there.
Usage
Use a Fluid Scanner in a chunk to record the chunk's fluid onto an RFID Chip from your inventory, then put the chip in the laser. Which fluid a chunk has, and how much is extracted each time, depends on the chunk's climate (see the table below). After a start-up sequence, the laser extracts the chunk's fluid into its tank every 20 ticks ("Process Time") while it has power. An upgrade in the upgrade slot shortens the processing time (see Machine upgrades).
Energy
| Default | Config setting | |
|---|---|---|
| Power consumption | 1,024 FE/t | Power Consumption |
| Energy storage | Integer.MAXVALUE / 4 FE | Maximum Power |
| Maximum input/output | Integer.MAXVALUE / 16 FE/t | Maximum Transfer |
Inventory
The "default face" is the side of the machine that automation (hoppers, pipes) uses for the slot by default, relative to the machine's front. It can be changed in the machine's IO settings.
| # | Slot | Default face | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Bucket input (fill/empty tank) | Up | |
| 2 | Bucket output | Down | |
| 3 | Item input | Back | |
| 4 | Upgrade | — | Speeds up processing (see Machine upgrades) |
Tanks
| Tank | Capacity | Restriction |
|---|---|---|
| Output | 4,000 mB |
Multiblock
The Dimensional Laser needs a column of three Solarium Machine Casing blocks directly below it.
