Materials and Oil

Materials And Oil

Material	Obtain/use
Starch	Crush potato or poisonous potato with Base Metals' Crack Hammer or compatible crusher.
Bioplastic	Smelt starch one for one; portable tanks and insulation.
Sprocket	Steel mechanical part, also registered as a steel gear.
Steel frame	Eight steel bars around an empty centre; machine structure/track.
Rotation tool	Iron and sprocket; right-click supported blocks to cycle facing.

For manual crushing, drop the input and use the Crack Hammer on it. There is no direct crafting-table potato-to-starch recipe in this 1.10.2 edition. Steam/electric crushers automate the registered recipe.

Bioplastic has plastic/ingotPlastic names; plastic_equals_rubber=true also exposes rubber equivalents. Another mod's material must have the right Ore Dictionary registration.

Oil Fields

basePower registers a covered desert crude-oil deposit through OreSpawn, not an independent terrain generator. The default is Overworld-only sandy desert terrain, excluding beaches and mesas. Active profile settings control the actual rule.

Mineralogy's ocean oil is complementary. mineralogy_crude_oil keeps its identity but works as crude feed/fuel in appropriate base machinery. Both refine at 2:1. Existing profiles and explicit imported settings beat fresh defaults; changing generation does not automatically replace explored chunks.

Registry fluid	Default fuel handling
crude_oil	5,000 burn ticks per bucket.
mineralogy_crude_oil	Same crude fallback when installed.
oil	Legacy crude alias when registered, unless explicitly overridden.
refined_oil	25,000 burn ticks per bucket in Power fuel handling.

Machine acceptance is separate from category membership. The electric refinery defaults to refined_oil;oil, not every raw crude. Oil-boiler explicit fuel values override fallbacks.

Crude contact applies Slowness III for ten seconds. Refined oil applies Nausea for ten seconds, matching the examined original release; historical wording about poisoning does not mean Minecraft's Poison effect.

Sibling Minerals

Fresh-profile sulfur preference: Mineralogy, then BaseMinerals, then baseElectric. Lithium: BaseMinerals, then baseElectric. Disabled alternatives remain editable; existing profiles stay authoritative. Canonical sulfur names have British Sulphur aliases where applicable.

BaseMinerals has not yet received the complete provider modernisation; a pack with it and Mineralogy may still need sulfur generation adjusted manually. Compatibility specification.
