Resource Bamboo

Turn renewable bamboo into any material — with a tiered factory you can extend yourself.

Resource Bamboo reimagines bamboo as a real, multi-stage plant and adds a processing pipeline that converts it into the resources you actually need. Start with vanilla-style bamboo, breed it into 16 built-in resource types, and scale up through four generations of processing machines — all automatable with the mod's own resource pipes or any standard item transport (hoppers, ME networks, pipes).

Highlights

• Real bamboo farming — multi-segment growth that thickens before it grows tall, bone-meal acceleration, light and height rules straight from vanilla bamboo.

• 16 built-in resource bamboos — Copper, Iron, Gold, Redstone, Lapis Lazuli, Amethyst, Diamond, Emerald, Ender Pearl, Coal, Quartz, Glowstone, Prismarine, Blaze Rod, Ancient Debris, and Netherite.

• Four generations of processors that get dramatically faster as you climb the tiers:

  Machine	Lanes	Throughput
  Basic	3	3 items / 20 ticks
  Advanced	5	5 items / 20 ticks
  Elite	7	7 items / 20 ticks
  Ultimate	14	64 items / 20 ticks (14 parallel lanes)

• Automation built in — resource pipes with a wrench to set extract / disconnect sides, plus a standard IItemHandler capability so hoppers, Mekanism, and AE2 can pull straight from the machines.

• Data-pack extensibility — add any new resource with one registry JSON + one recipe. No compiling. The generic bamboo is colored at runtime, so you don't even have to draw a texture.

• Mod integration out of the box — Mekanism (9 materials) and AE2 (5 materials) are unlocked automatically, gated behind mod_loaded conditions. There is no hard dependency — the mod runs perfectly fine on its own.

• Works with the Cloche and standard farming setups
