MC3DPrint
Once a single-block printer stops cutting it, you graduate to Fabricators. These are multiblock machines built from a square base of Printer Casing with a controller block in the center, and they print bigger, faster, and cheaper than any printer in the tier ladder.
Sizes & base blocks
- T5 — 3×3 base, 8 casing
- T6 — 5×5 base, 24 casing
- T7 — 7×7 base, 48 casing
- T8 — 9×9 base, 76 casing + 4 Awakened Draconium corners
Print footprints scale with tier: 9×9 (T5), 15×15 (T6), 33×33 (T7), and 51×51 (T8) by default — each tier has a maxFootprint config entry if you want bigger.
Printer Casing is the building block of every base — one craft yields four. The T5 Fabricator controller itself is built around a Tier 4 printer and an Extrudium Crystal.
Forming the machine
Lay the base flat, place the controller in the center cell, and Right Click the controller to form it. The casing lights up to confirm. See the build walkthrough for exact per-tier layouts.
Break a formed controller and the whole machine collapses back into a single item — re-place it and it re-forms, ready to run. You can relocate a Fabricator without rebuilding it.
The T8 endgame
The Tier 8 Fabricator is the top of the line and requires Draconic Evolution installed. Its four base corners must be Awakened Draconium blocks instead of casing — without Draconic Evolution, it simply refuses to form.
