Automate | Stardew Valley

The main purpose of Automate mod is to support players pull automatically raw items from the chest and pushing their finished items into it. Your task is to place that chest next to any machine such as a furnace or crystalarium and then it will start working. You can also connect multiple machines with a chest to link them together

DESCRIPTIONS

This ingenious Automate mod allows tons of objects to connect to each other in order to remove the need to manually process items. Let’s start to explore the power of this mod with nowmods.com

After putting the chest next to machines, press U (configurable) to show an automation overlay, it looks like this image below

How to use

Basic automation

The machines connected to a chest will push their output into it and  pull ingredients to process out of it

Use these items below to automate

auto-grabbers;	bee houses	bone mills	seed makers
bushes (blackberry, salmonberry, and tea bushes)	fruit trees	kegs	crystalariums (once started with the gem/mineral you want)
casks (even outside cellar)	furnaces (need coal)	looms	silos
charcoal kilns	garbage cans	mayonnaise	slime egg-presses
cheese presses	geode crushers (also need coal)	mills	slime incubators
coffee makers	hay hoppers	mini-shipping bins	soda machines
crab pots	hoppers	mushroom boxes	solar panels
shipping bin (configurable)	Junimo huts	oil makers	statues of endless fortune
deconstructors	incubators (for eggs)	preserves jars	statues of perfection
fish ponds (for output only)	lightning rods	recycling machines	tappers
statues of true perfection	wood chippers	worm bins	machines

Automated machines give you the same XP, achievements and items, so you can get them and use them directly

Machine groups

This mod can connect any number of chests and machines into Machine Group. To do it, you have to place each chest or machine touch another one

How’s about multiple chests to the same machine group? They will also all be used in the automation, the input is taken from all the chests and the output is sent to chests in this order:

• Chests edited using Chests Anywhere to enable ‘prefer this chest for output’
• Chests contain an item of the same type
• or any chest

Connectors

Here you can active optionally configure objects or paths as connectors (for link machines together)

Example:  wooden paths used as connectors

Junimo chests

Combine machine with chest will connect to a Junimo chest which is part of a global machine group. It works like a regular machine group include for machine priority, even if it’s spread across many locations

Example:

• Junimo huts on your farm collect crops
• Kegs in a shed turn them into juice/wine
• Cellar casks age the juice/wine
• The shipping bin collects the final output
