Ore Processing
This module runs on a 'local server'.
- Sorts incoming ores based on configurable filters
- Segments your oreproc machines into simple, easy to manage sections
- Supports "extra" processing methods like chemical bathing, sifting, and even smelting
- Supports processing lines such as indium or platline
- Outputs aren't set in stone, and the machines attached to them can be changed
- Allows for easy importing/exporting of filter files
- Allows searching for and lookup/editing of existing filters
- Compact and simple (only takes a 2x3x2 block space)
- Designed for use between the unlock of OpenComputers/NIDAS and the need for endgame levels of oreproc throughput

A barebones physical installation of the module, without supporting machines
A cramped example of this module's implementation. Batteries not included. GT item pipe spaghetti sold separately.
This module doesn't require any extra internal components, but does require some external ones. For a barebones installation without machines, you'll need:
- A computer with NIDAS installed
- 2 Transposers
- 9 Baby Chests
- Some OC cable The chests don't necessarily need to be baby chests or even 1-slot chests. However, this module will only interact with the first slot of each chest, and baby chests are the simplest to get.
For the machine segments needed for a full implementation of this module, you'll additionally need:
- The machines themselves (covered later)
- Item pipes of some sort (GT item pipes, item conduits, item P2P)
- Stackwise item extraction from the output chests
Let's get started.
- Place down the computer and install NIDAS onto it.
- Draw out a line of OC cable and place the 2 Transposers on top of the line.
- Place the Baby Chests on every open side of the Transposers.
You should now have something like this:
The chest in the middle is going to be the system's input, or "working inventory", and you'll likely want to prioritize whatever comes back through.
Labels are as such: [1] Conveyor set to export, disable on redstone; [2] Machine Controller Cover set to disable on redstone; [3] Item Detector Cover set to inverted, item threshold 1; [4] Conveyor set to export; Conveyors should preferably be EV.
Don't connect your ore flow to the input chest just yet.
