Applied Energistics 2

This is the first alpha version of AE2 for Forge on 1.17.

Please note that Forge on 1.17 is currently still not where it was on 1.16 and earlier. Some issues (such as the time it takes to start the game or enter a world) are due to changes in Forge, and not AE2.

There are major early-game changes in this version. Since we no longer have access to modify the old Wiki, we are currently working on a new one. For early game progression hints, please see the getting started page.

API

There were many major changes in the AE2 API and we consider Minecraft 1.17 a version where we will not fully stabilize the API for addons/mods.

Some select changes: * Introduce a capability for ICraftingMachine so other mods can implement their own Molecular Assemblers by @shartte in https://github.com/AppliedEnergistics/Applied-Energistics-2/pull/5474 * Closes #5165: Better separation for crafting and processing patterns by @yueh in https://github.com/AppliedEnergistics/Applied-Energistics-2/pull/5485
