just wondering does silents gems work with automating tech to get the soul gems?

Should work if the machine uses a fake player to do the kills.

so immersive enginnering closhes wouldnt work then?

I'm not familiar with them.

its the garden closhes from immersive enginnering u might of seen darkphan or king using them in his test packs

these are the closhes

Oh, thought you meant the soul gems that drop from mobs not the crop ones.

This took a while to find. First, it's spelled "cloche". And internally it's called "bell jar". Go figure. Glancing at the code for the tile entity, it most likely won't create soul gems. It would need to fire BlockEvent.HarvestDropsEvent. Instead it looks like the cloches use a custom handler for creating drops.

Nothing I can do without an event to catch. You could ask the Immersive Engineering author to fire some event. If they decide to add their own, I can add support for that too.

well is there anyway of automating it for crops or should i only focus on ones from mobs? just wondering cause i checked the book and it wasnt really clear on which should be more focused on in general so any info will be greatly welcome plz and ty

Sorry, been a crazy week and I lost track of this. I'm not sure what could be used to automate crop soul gems, I haven't tried it. Overall, the mob soul gems are "better", especially the ones dropped by hostile mobs. The flora and fauna elements have some of the weakest benefits. That was intentional, since I knew crops and passive mobs would be the easiest to farm early on.

ok so basically aim for mob soul drops then ty
