[1.0.0] - 2026-09-17

Initial Release for Minecraft 1.21.1 (NeoForge)

Supercharge Applied Energistics 2 autocrafting for massive machine arrays with 1-to-many pattern distribution across dedicated ME subnets without channel limits, pattern duplication, or TPS lag!

Added

• Master Pattern Provider:
  • Hosts up to 16 processing patterns to distribute across any number of machines.
  • Consumes only 1 channel on your main network while serving infinite machines.
  • Dedicated Cyan Subnet Port connecting to your worker subnet.
  • Automatic Energy Overlay Grid power bridging to subnets (no quartz fibers, batteries, or channels needed).
  • Real-time Telemetry HUD: Displays subnet health, channel availability, live power state, total workers, and idle vs. busy counts.
  • Custom 210x230 AE2-style GUI with recessed slot grids.
• Sub-Pattern Provider:
  • Placed adjacent to any machine (furnaces, molecular assemblers, inscribers, modded machines).
  • Uses 0 channels on the main network.
  • Smart placement heuristic: automatically points into machines when placed against them, or away when placed against cables.
  • Multi-directional fallback insertion for strict-sided inventories (e.g. vanilla furnaces).
  • Automatic craft output interception returning products directly to main storage.
  • Built-in auto-pull fallback for non-ejecting machines.
• \(O(1)\) Event-Driven Subnet Worker Queue:
  • Lightning-fast worker claiming and dispatching with zero polling overhead and zero TPS lag.
• Visuals & Animations:
  • Animated Fluix purple conduits on the Master Provider.
  • Animated 4-frame glowing cyan pulse on the Subnet Port.
  • State indicators on Sub-Pattern Providers: Cyan loop in IDLE, glowing amber data-flow pulse in BUSY, and deactivated LED in OFFLINE.
  • 20-tick visual hold timer so animations remain clearly visible even on 1-tick boosted crafts (e.g. Molecular Assemblers with 5 Acceleration Cards).
  • Wrench rotatable facings.
• Survival Polish:
  • Complete crafting recipes using AE2 materials and Quartz Fibers.
  • Pickaxe mineable tags and explosion-resistant block drop loot tables.
  • Pattern drop protection when breaking the Master Provider in-world.
