BuildCraft writes it's configuration options in the ./minecraft/mods/config/buildcraft/main.conf file. This file contains all assigned Block and Item IDs (which can be changed by the user), as well as a number of other, lesser-known configuration options.

Currently, there are options to:

  • Allow machines to be driven by continuous current.
  • Prevent fillers from dropping blocks.
  • Make Filler destroy blocks instead of breaking them.
  • Change the lifespan (in ticks) of items dropped on the ground by pipes and machines.
  • Prevent BuildCraft from generating custom blocks (e.g. Oil).
  • Change the delay between full client sync packets; increasing it saves bandwidth, decreasing allows better client synchronization.
  • Decrease network update frequency, which is useful for overloaded servers.
  • Deactivate pipe connection rules. This is actually deactivated by default, as of 3.4.0, but can be enabled by changing "false" to "true".
  • Change how long a pipe will take to break.
  • Change the number of objects in a pipe required for items to be automatically grouped together.
  • Change the amount of items that a pipe has to contain before it will explode, causing it to not drop any items.
  • Disable energy loss over distance on all power pipes.
