Description

Small clay helper golems that chop trees, farm, mine, carry and sweep for you.

Small clay helper golems that chop trees, farm, mine, carry, sweep, shear, breed, smelt, fish and more for you. No GUIs, no power, no setup beyond a chest. Craft a golem, give it a job card and a tool, feed it clay cookies and it gets on with it.

Jobs

Lumber: fells grown trees with natural leaves (so log houses are safe), collects the logs and replants a sapling.
Farmer: harvests ripe crops and replants them. Works with modded crops that use the vanilla crop block or the crops tag.
Miner: digs out a marked area from the top down, leaving a spiral staircase round the edge. Builds missing steps over caves and seals water and lava as it finds them. Respects pickaxe tier, Fortune and Silk Touch.
Courier: moves items from one container to another, up and down long staircases.
Sweeper: picks up every dropped item in its area.
Shepherd: shears sheep, wool to storage.
Rancher: breeds the animals in its area up to a set count, with feed from storage.
Beekeeper: harvests full hives and nests without angering the bees, honey bottles with glass bottles from storage or honeycomb with shears.
Fisher: fishes at water in its area, catch to storage.
Lamplighter: places torches from storage on dark ground so monsters cannot spawn.
Composter: fills a composter from a chest and takes the bone meal to another.
Smelter: feeds a furnace, smoker or blast furnace from an input chest and a fuel chest and empties it into an output chest.

A golem without a card is a blank golem that follows you around. Take a card out with a stick and give it a new one to change its job.

SKYBLOCK PROGRAMS

Cobblegen: mines one block of your generator each time it grows back, and nothing else.
Sifter (needs Ex Deorum, NeoForge): takes siftable blocks from a chest, works an Ex Deorum sieve and stores the results.
Hammer (needs Ex Deorum, NeoForge): places blocks from a chest on a spot and breaks them with an Ex Deorum hammer, for gravel, sand and dust.

Program golems are set up with the Marker Stick: click the chest, the machine and the output chest in order, then use the stick on the golem.

HOW IT WORKS

Craft a Golem Core (redstone, lapis and an emerald), build a clay golem round it, and add a job card. Place it, hand it a tool and some clay cookies. It works in an area around where you placed it, or in an area you mark with the Marker Stick, and stores what it collects in the nearest chest, barrel or shulker box.

Golems tell you what they need with small thought bubbles: no storage, no sapling, no cookies, no building blocks, broken tool. Fix it and they show a little heart. They fetch tools and building blocks from storage on their own, keep out of lava and fire, dig their way back if they get stuck, and are saved if they fall into the void. They never attack, never despawn and drop everything they carry if they die.

FOR MODPACKS

Config file: config/simplegolems.toml (same file on both loaders)
maxAreaWidth, workSpeed, cookieTicks, blockReserve, enabledJobs and enabledPrograms (every job and program can be turned off), voidRescue, digOut, moddedStorage, skyblockPrograms, rancherMaxAnimals

Modded storage: any block that offers an item inventory through the NeoForge item capability or the Fabric Transfer API works as golem storage, for example Simple Barrels. Furnaces, hoppers and machines are never used as storage.

Data pack tags:
simplegolems:storage, simplegolems:not_storage (blocks)
simplegolems:miner_building_blocks (items)
simplegolems:miner_never_dig (blocks)
simplegolems:lumber_logs (blocks and items), simplegolems:lumber_saplings (items)
simplegolems:farmer_crops (blocks)
simplegolems:hammers, simplegolems:lamplighter_lights (items)

All recipes are plain data pack recipes and can be changed or shown in any recipe viewer.

Ex Deorum is optional: without it the sifter and hammer cards are hidden and everything else works.

Feel free to include Simple Golems in your modpack.
