AA2 Core

AA2 Core

QoL and bridge features for Multiblocked2 machines, plus a few pack-side fixes for other mods.

What it does

• Parallel control -Min/max parallel slider UI on machines (including lone parallel parts). Recipes only run when they can hit your chosen range.
• Clearer Jade on controllers -Shows working - X parallel instead of a bare “working”.
• Multiblock formation help -When a structure isn’t formed, Jade shows what’s expected and where (including friendly names for tags). Default tag localization includes aa:io → IO; override via assets.
• Reliable recipe slots -Named JEI/recipe-map slots stay distinct (1 vs 10 vs 100) instead of overlapping.
• AE2 ↔ Mekanism chemicals -ME Chemical Interface trait and UI slots so Multiblocked2 machines can talk to Applied Mekanistics chemical networks.
• Smarter tanks & filters -Phantom chemical tanks, allow-same-fluid respected when unchecked, disallow-same for chemical traits, cleaner ME tank UI.
• Less Jade spam -Hides huge ME/chemical storage dumps on interface-style machines while keeping the block name.
• MBD2 preview rendering -Translucent casings and glass show with real alpha in JEI/XEI pattern previews (including Fabulous graphics). Skull block entities sit centered in the scene.
• Kiln -Furnace-style block with its own recipe type (aa2core:kiln) for pack recipes.
• Immersive Engineering heaters (optional) -External furnace heaters work on the kiln, blast furnace, and smoker.
• Tetra salvaging in JEI (optional) -Workbench loot actions (and datapack actions) show as a Salvaging category, with loot synced to the client and tool lines like Requires Tier 4+ Hammer / Requires any Hammer.
• Chipped workbench recipes (optional) -Fixes the 1.20.1 race where variant groups vanish from JEI/workbenches after a bad recipe sync (tag IDs instead of frozen item lists).
• AE2 JEI fluids on Fabulous (optional) - Transformation-recipe fluid cubes stay visible.
• Thermal centrifuge catalysts- datapack/thermal:centrifuge_catalyst recipes + JEI category (same idea as pulverizer/smelter catalysts + doesn't add any by default)
• Worn Thermal satchel- open Curios-back satchel with a keybind (no hotbar swap)
• Tetra Transfer Unit- exposes ITEM_HANDLER so thermal cells can be transported in/out
• Thermal Blast Chiller JEI- item-only (empty tank) recipes no longer crashes and break the tank glyph
