Four-Material Smelting & Sorted Storage

Installation and Quick Start

Manually stock four furnace lanes; iron, gold, glass and copper automatically reach separate outputs. Use the existing hopper standing area for elevated loading.

1. 1

   Import the exact file

   Use Java 26.3 + Fabric WorldEdit 7.4.6. Clear 48×9×4 blocks and keep chunks ticking. Load four-lane-smelting-sorter.schem and paste once. Verify the supplied SHA before importing.

2. 2

   Upper chest access

   Inputs are y=8 and fuel y=7. Stand on the existing hopper platform to load them. Optionally bring a ladder or scaffolding to reach that standing area. Keep lids clear and do not disturb the circuit.

3. 3

   Iron lane

   Put 2 raw iron in (0,8,0) and 1 coal in (1,7,0). Two iron ingots should reach output A at (17,1,1). Coordinates are relative to the schematic origin.

4. 4

   Gold lane

   Put 2 raw gold in (3,8,0) and 1 coal in (4,7,0). Two gold ingots should reach output B at (25,1,1).

5. 5

   Glass lane

   Put 2 sand in (6,8,0) and 1 coal in (7,7,0). Two glass should reach output C at (33,1,1).

6. 6

   Copper lane

   Put 2 raw copper in (9,8,0) and 1 coal in (10,7,0). Two copper ingots should reach output D at (41,1,1). Raw materials and fuel are stocked manually.

7. 7

   Wait and collect

   Allow up to the tested 850 game ticks. Collect only from the four output chests. Shared chest (12,5,1) feeds the sorter automatically; overflow (42,4,1) should stay empty for this batch.

8. 8

   Blocked output and reset

   Free space in a full output and leave the machine ticking. The tested two-glass blockage recovered after 400 more ticks. Use a fresh paste for a no-fuel test: furnaces can retain burn time after coal is removed.

Leave all 41-item filter reserves and the sticks named MinePilot Sorter Filler intact. Elevated loading is an accepted installation inconvenience; ladder/scaffolding is player-provided. Evidence covers two inputs per lane; a complete ladder route was not separately tested.
