Demagnetize
License: MIT • Environment: Client/Server • Mod loader: Forge
Item magnets are incredibly useful during mining activities, but they can seriously interfere with various automation systems based on item movement. For instance, they can disrupt the operation of the Atomic Reconstructor from Actually Additions. The Demagnetizer solves this problem by creating an area around itself where all item magnets cease to function.
Configuration and Control
Demagnetizer setups can be finely tuned for specific tasks:
- Item filtering — the device can affect only certain types of items
- Redstone control — the system can be automatically activated and deactivated using redstone signals
- Advanced version — the improved demagnetizer has an increased range and more filter slots

For Mod Developers
If your mod adds an item magnet, avoid picking up items that have the PreventRemoteMovement
NBT tag set.
If your mod contains item collection blocks (for example, Ranged Collector or Vacuum Chest), do not collect items with the PreventRemoteMovement
tag, but ignore this tag if the AllowMachineRemoteMovement
tag is present. This ensures that player magnets do not pick up items from conveyors or demagnetized objects, while automatic collection systems are not hindered by the demagnetizer's action.
