About ME Network
From Factorio Mod PortalAn ME storage network inspired by Applied Energistics 2: cables, a controller, drives with storage cells that keep their contents, a terminal, interfaces, import, export and storage buses, autocrafting with encoded patterns and crafting CPUs, level maintainers, and fluids. Works on its own with vanilla recipes; Gregtorio Continued puts it on its GregTech tiers. Source and issues: https://github.com/Rykon00/me-network
An ME storage network for Factorio 2.0, inspired by Applied Energistics 2. It works on its own with vanilla recipes and technologies; Gregtorio Continued depends on it and puts it on its GregTech tiers.
Discord: questions, help and release news in the Gregtorio & ME Network server.
What it adds
- ME cables and underground cables join ME blocks into a network; a network runs with one powered ME Controller.
- ME Drive with 10 slots for storage cells (1k to 256k, items or fluids). Cells keep their contents when taken out; cell partitions and drive priorities.
- ME Terminal as the hub: storage with search and sort, crafting with a plan preview, jobs, drives and cells, encoding patterns.
- ME Interface, ME Import Bus and ME Export Bus, each with a fluid version.
- ME Storage Bus on a chest, logistic chest or cargo wagon, and ME Fluid Storage Bus on a tank's fluid segment.
- Autocrafting: blank patterns encoded into crafting or processing patterns, ME Pattern Provider with 9 pattern slots, ME Molecular Assembler, ME Crafting CPU with two bigger tiers.
- ME Level Maintainer keeps an item or fluid in stock; ME Circuit Interface puts the network contents on a circuit wire.
Progression
Red and green science for the network, up to utility science for the biggest crafting CPU.
With Gregtorio Continued
Gregtorio Continued 0.5.0 and later depends on this mod. A save of an older Gregtorio Continued with an ME network is taken over when it is loaded with both mods: cells with their items and fluids, patterns, running jobs, level maintainers and the settings of every block. Loading this mod next to Gregtorio Continued before 0.5.0 is refused with a message, because both would run the same network.
For mod authors
A data-stage API (ME_NETWORK) lets other mods give the ME blocks their own recipes and technologies. It is described in docs/API.md in the repository.
