Mekanism CEu AE Upgrade

Mekanism CEu AE Upgrade connects supported Mekanism CEu machines directly to an Applied Energistics 2 network. It adds wired and wireless upgrades for AE crafting, automatic processing, and machine output while preserving Mekanism's normal machine behavior.

Features

AE Crafting Upgrade

• Exposes supported machine recipes to the AE crafting system as processing patterns.
• Accepts crafting jobs from AE crafting CPUs.
• Sends completed item, fluid, and gas outputs back to the connected AE network.
• Supports factories, multi-input recipes, multiple recipe routes, and recipe-specific batch amounts.

AE Auto Processing Upgrade

• Lets a machine pull the inputs for enabled recipes directly from AE storage.
• Processes configured recipes automatically without submitting an AE crafting job.
• Uses its own profiles and route settings, independent from AE Crafting configuration.
• Starts with processing routes disabled so that machines do not consume network resources unexpectedly.

AE Output Upgrade

• Sends item, fluid, and gas products from supported output-producing machines into AE storage.
• Intended for machines such as pumps, miners, environmental producers, and other machines that generate resources without AE recipe input.

Wireless Variants

Each upgrade has a wireless equivalent:

• Wireless AE Crafting Upgrade
• Wireless AE Auto Processing Upgrade
• Wireless AE Output Upgrade

Wireless upgrades are linked to an AE network through an AE2 Security Terminal before installation. They use the same recipe and profile configuration as their wired counterparts and do not require an adjacent AE cable.

Only one AE integration upgrade can be installed in a machine at a time. Wired and wireless variants, as well as crafting, automatic processing, and output modes, are mutually exclusive.

Recipe Configuration

Supported machines receive dedicated AE configuration tabs in their GUI.

• Ten player-owned global profiles per machine type.
• A separate per-machine profile mode.
• Independent configuration for AE Crafting and AE Auto Processing.
• Blacklist and whitelist filtering for AE Crafting recipes.
• Product and route enable controls.
• Route priority and configurable processing amounts.
• Search and single-route or multi-route filters.
• Configuration Card support for copying profile mode and settings between machines.
• Owner-based editing permissions for configuration tabs.

Recipes whose input and output contain the same resource are not exposed to AE Crafting, preventing invalid or self-referential crafting patterns. They remain visible as read-only routes in the configuration GUI.

Supported Resources

The integration supports combinations of:

• Items
• Fluids
• Mekanism gases
• Mekanism infusion inputs through the appropriate conversion rules

Recipe handling includes Mekanism factories and machines with multiple input or output types. Compatibility for supported Mekanism CEu MoreMachine and Multiblock Machine machines is enabled automatically when those modules are installed.

Basic Usage

1. Craft the required AE upgrade.
2. Install it through the machine upgrade GUI or Mekanism's normal upgrade installation interaction.
3. Open the new AE configuration tab on the machine when using AE Crafting or AE Auto Processing.
4. Select the recipes and routes that the machine may expose or process.
5. Connect a wired machine to the AE network, or bind a wireless upgrade in an AE2 Security Terminal before installing it.

Sneak-right-click while holding a wireless upgrade to clear its saved network binding.

Required Mods

• Minecraft 1.12.2
• Minecraft Forge
• Mekanism CE Unofficial
• AE2 Extended Life
• AE2 Fluid Crafting Rework
• Mekanism Energistics
• MixinBooter

Use the dependency versions listed on the CurseForge file page. This addon targets the Mekanism CEu and AE2 Extended Life ecosystem and is not intended for unrelated Mekanism or AE2 forks.

Optional Compatibility

• Mekanism CEu MoreMachine
• Mekanism CEu Multiblock Machine

Wireless Notes

• Wireless operation can work across dimensions when the bound AE network location remains valid and accessible.
• This mod does not force-load chunks or dimensions. The machine and required network components must already be loaded.
• If the bound network becomes unavailable, the machine waits and retries instead of silently switching to another network.
