UNAe2Addon

addon Applied Energistics 2

Description

 

UN Ae2 Addon is an addon for Applied Energistics 2 that brings AE2 autocrafting to a variety of other mods and vanilla mechanics.

It adds a set of network-aware automation blocks that behave like AE2 crafting machines: they request items from your ME network, perform the ritual/crafting operation, and push the output back into the network – all driven by standard AE2 patterns.

All recipes are data-driven via JSON so you can easily rebalance or extend them for your modpack.

Features

Applied Energistics 2 integration

All blocks:

  • Connect to the AE2 network as crafting providers.

  • Consume inputs directly from ME storage.

  • Export outputs back into ME storage automatically.

  • Use classic crafting patterns – no custom GUIs.

AE2-focused machines:

  • Automatic Inscriber (autopress)
    Automates AE2 processor and printed circuits crafting.

  • Automatic Crystal Charger (autocrystallizer)
    Automates Charged Certus and Fluix crystal creation.

  • Automatic Brewing Stand (autobrewstand)
    Exposes all registered brewing recipes to AE2 autocrafting (vanilla potions, lingering potions, etc.) – no manual JSON config required.

Botania integration

These blocks only load when Botania is installed:

  • Automatic Petal Apothecary (autopetals)
    Automates petal/apothecary recipes.

  • Automatic Mana Pool (automanapool)
    Automates Mana Pool conversions (mana steel, mana diamond, mana glass, etc.).

  • Automatic Pure Daisy (autopuredaisy)
    Automates Pure Daisy transformations (stone → livingrock, wood/ice conversions, and more).

  • Automatic Rune Altar (autorunealtar)
    Automates rune crafting on the Rune Altar.

  • Automatic Elven Trade (autoelventrade)
    Automates portal trades (e.g. Mana Diamond → Dragonstone, Livingwood → Dreamwood).

  • Automatic Terrasteel (autoterrasteel)
    Automates Terrasteel production with AE2 autocrafting patterns.

Draconic Evolution integration

Only loads when Draconic Evolution is present:

  • Automatic Block Awakener (autoawakener)
    Automates Awakened Draconium production (Dragon Heart + Draconium Blocks + Draconic Cores → Awakened Draconium Blocks) via AE2 patterns.

Avaritia integration

Only loads when Avaritia is present:

  • Automatic Neutron Collector / Compressor (autoneutroniumcompressor)
    Automates singularity compression and can be configured to output:

    • Classic Avaritia singularities, or

    • Any item you want, using the JSON configuration.

Vanilla / other

  • Automatic Brewing Stand works entirely with vanilla brewing plus any modded recipes registered in Forge’s brewing registry.

  • Default recipes cover common use cases, but everything (except the brewing stand) is overrideable through JSON.

Configuration

On first run, the mod generates JSON recipe files under:

 
config/UN_Ae2Addon/

Each automation block has its own file, for example:

  • autoawakener.json

  • autocrystallizer.json

  • autoelventrade.json

  • automanapool.json

  • autoneutroniumcompressor.json

  • autopetals.json

  • autopress.json

  • autopuredaisy.json

  • autorunealtar.json

  • autoterrasteel.json

Each file contains an array of recipes with this general format:

[ { "inputs": [ { "item": "modid:item_name", "count": 1 } ], "outputs": [ { "item": "modid:result_item", "count": 1 } ] } ]
 

  • item: full registry name (modid:item), e.g. minecraft:diamond, botania:mana_diamond.

  • count: how many items are consumed/produced.

If a config file does not exist, the mod writes a default one based on its internal recipes.
If you break the JSON syntax, the mod will simply fall back to its defaults.

Requirements

  • Minecraft: 1.20.1

  • Forge: matching 1.20.1 Forge (loader 47+)

  • Required:

    • Applied Energistics 2

  • Optional (for specific blocks):

    • Botania

    • Draconic Evolution

    • Avaritia

Blocks for optional mods only register if the corresponding mod is loaded, so the addon is safe to include in large modpacks even if not all integrations are used.
