NEXUS Systems & Networks
One Network. Every Resource. No Channels. No Limits.
Minecraft 1.21.1 & 26.2 | NeoForge
Build smarter. Automate everything. Connect beyond dimensions.
NEXUS Systems & Networks is a complete storage, crafting, and industrial automation ecosystem for Minecraft.
Connect your inventories, machines, fluids, and energy systems into one intelligent network. Automate complex production chains, manufacture advanced technology, and expand your infrastructure across entire dimensions.
Unlike traditional channel-based systems, NEXUS has no channels or device-count limits. Connect more machines, expand your storage, and build your factory without managing channel restrictions.
Start by mining Nexite, develop your own processing machinery, manufacture electronic chips, and work your way toward advanced quantum networking.
NEXUS works as a standalone mod, with optional integrations for popular technology mods such as Mekanism, Applied Energistics 2, Refined Storage 2, Integrated Dynamics, and more.

2. Intelligent Autocrafting
NEXUS goes beyond traditional crafting automation.
Request an item and let the network analyze what is required to produce it.
Before production begins, NEXUS generates a crafting plan showing:
-
Available ingredients.
-
Required intermediate components.
-
Materials that must be crafted.
-
Missing resources.
-
The complete production process.
Review the plan before starting your order.
Recipe Cards
Create reusable recipes using Recipe Cards with ghost ingredient slots.
Supported ingredient substitution allows compatible materials, such as different wood types, to be used in the same production process.
With JEI integration, recipes can be recorded directly using the recipe transfer button.
Automatic Machine Feeder
One of NEXUS's major automation features is the Machine Feeder.
Connect it to a NEXUS Cable facing a compatible machine, and the network can automatically recognize supported processing recipes.
The system can:
-
Detect compatible machine recipes.
-
Deliver ingredients to the appropriate input sides.
-
Handle fuel when required.
-
Collect finished products.
-
Integrate machine processing into crafting chains.
Supported machine types include vanilla furnaces, smokers, blast furnaces, NEXUS processing machines, and compatible Mekanism machinery.
Mekanism integration includes supported machines such as Enrichment Chambers, Crushers, Metallurgic Infusers, Combiners, Electrolytic Separators, and factories.
Less manual configuration. More automation.
Crafting Processors
Expand your production capacity with three processor tiers.
| Processor Tier | Parallel Jobs |
|---|---|
| Basic | 1 |
| Advanced | 4 |
| Elite | 16 |
Each processor includes its own crafting job interface.
Automatic Stock Production
The Production Controller maintains your inventory automatically.
Create rules such as:
Keep at least 128 Iron Ingots in storage and craft up to 512 when necessary.
The network handles production according to your configured limits.
Order Panel
Monitor active crafting operations using wall-mounted Order Panels with live progress indicators.
Stack multiple panels to display more ongoing jobs.
Supported autocrafting systems can also work with fluids and Mekanism chemicals, not just items.
