Duplication Chip

The Duplication Chip sets the Incubator to copy an input item into two, costing 4000 EU and uranium fuel per attempt.

Description

The Duplication Chip is one of Ala Industrial's three Incubator mode chips, and it sets the machine to duplicate the input item instead of transforming or creating it. Installed in the Incubator's dedicated chip slot, the chip tells the machine to run a 25-second irradiation cycle that turns one input item into two at the cost of 4000 EU and a third of a uranium ingot per attempt. The Duplication Chip itself is never consumed, so a single chip powers as many runs as the uranium fuel and the EU grid can supply. The outcome is probabilistic: the success chance depends on the value class of the copied item, from 0.85 for basic crops up to 0.45 for gems and precious ingots, and every success rolls a rarity grade of Common, Rare, Epic, or Legendary. Use the Duplication Chip when you already hold a scarce late-game material and need more of exactly that item, because the chip stretches what you have rather than producing it from raw.

How to use the Duplication Chip in Minecraft

  1. 1

    Craft the chip

    Assemble a Duplication Chip at a workbench: an empty chip in the centre, two amethyst shards on the sides, and a uranium plate below.

  2. 2

    Install it in the Incubator

    Place the chip into the Incubator's dedicated chip slot. The chip sets the machine to duplicate mode and is never consumed by a run.

  3. 3

    Add uranium and the item to copy

    Put a uranium ingot in the fuel slot (one ingot buys three attempts) and a single copyable item in the input slot.

  4. 4

    Run a 25-second cycle

    Each attempt costs 4000 EU and 25 seconds. On success the input item doubles; on failure it is lost and one charge burns away.

  5. 5

    Mind the value classes

    Cheaper items duplicate more reliably: basic crops succeed 0.85 of the time, while gems and precious ingots only succeed 0.45.

Legendary items cannot be duplicated

The input's rarity gene burns away during the attempt and the result always rolls a fresh grade, so a Legendary item can only be spent for a higher success chance, never multiplied into a second Legendary.

Frequently asked questions

Does the Duplication Chip get consumed?

No. The Duplication Chip sits in the Incubator's chip slot and is never consumed by a run; only the uranium fuel and the EU are spent per attempt.

How much does one duplication attempt cost?

Each duplication attempt costs 4000 EU and runs for 25 seconds, plus a third of a uranium ingot because one ingot buys three charges.

What can the Duplication Chip copy?

It duplicates vanilla and Ala Industrial ingots plus gems, minerals, and organic items like crops and seeds. Processed parts such as plates, circuits, and cables are excluded, and uranium itself cannot be duplicated.

What is the success chance of duplication?

The chance depends on the item's value class: 0.85 for basic crops, 0.60 for rare organics, 0.55 for minerals and common ingots, and 0.45 for gems and precious ingots.

Can I duplicate a Legendary item?

No. The input's rarity gene burns during the attempt and the result rolls a fresh grade, so a Legendary item can only be spent for a higher success chance, never multiplied into another Legendary.
