The Block Breaker is a machine used to break blocks. This can be used to make farms that automate processes.

Usage

On recieving a Redstone signal, the Block Breaker will break the block in front of it and flush it out the back. It can put the harvested item into an attached Pneumatic Tube. 

Recipe

Uses

An Automatic Cobblestone Generator creates cobble using water and lava, which is then broken by the Block Breakers and can be piped back to chests or an Energy Condenser. This is commonly used to substitute Energy Collectors as a source of EMC.

Notes

• Despite using an iron pickaxe in the recipe, Block Breaker will break Obsidian, Dark Matter Blocks, and Red Matter Blocks and will do so much faster than any normal pickaxe
• A Screwdriver or Sonic Screwdriver is required to change the direction of the Block Breaker.

• Factions, and other land protection mods can prevent Block Breakers from working, so make sure if your server has factions, you do not have your block breakers in a piece of claimed land.
• If using on a cobble stone generator, having a timer at 1.5 seconds will set off the block breaker right as cobble is generated.
• Using a block breaker on Ice, Glass, Monster Spawner, or Construction Foam will Not produce anything.

Bugs & Errors

• Block breakers will stop working at the altitude of y = 200 and up.
