Machines
Transportation System
Item Transporter
Transports items around like a pipe system. Can be connected to Funnel for extracting/inserting, and Splitter/Merger.

Item Funnel
Acts as both an extractor and inserter, mode depends on the direction of the connected Transporter. Can only interact with chests.

Filter can be set for extracting mode.

Splitter & Merger
Two items in one. Can split and merge at the same time.

For outgoing direction:
If a filter is set, the item will proritize the directions with matching filter, otherwise it will be split evenly in all directions.

Automation System
Stone Generator
Generates stone blocks indefinitely, outputs to a chest next to it.

Ore Extractor
Extract ores (...by magic) from stone blocks.

Requires: Pickaxe (pickpower decides which ores can be extracted), input chest with stone blocks, output chest to store ores.

Filter can be set so only a specific ore is extracted. Otherwise, all ores are extracted randomly (1% chance per stone block).

Auto Crafter
Craft items periodically.

Requires: an Item for recipe, related crafting stations, input chest with ingredients, output chest to store crafted items.

Items with near water/honey/lava conditions are free to craft. Items that require Demon Altar are not supported (unless you have another mod which adds an item to place altars, but I have not tested)

Wood Harvester
Extracts woods and sends to the Wood Harvester Base at the bottom. Can stack on top of each other to make a looong line.

Wood Harvester Base
Stores woods from Harvesters above it. Sends woods to a chest next to it.

Item Vacuum
Collects items around it and puts them in chests on either side
Radius can be increased/decreased

Defense System
Magic Tower
Automatically pull bullets in chests next to it to shoot at nearby enemies. Moderate speed and low damage.

New recipe added for Musket Ball (requires any iron bars) so most bullets in the game can be automated using Auto Crafter.
