Description

ae2helpers is a Quality of Life addon for Applied Energistics 2 designed to make autocrafting setups smoother and more compact.

Features

1. Crafting Result Import Card: A specialized upgrade for the Pattern Provider.

  • What it does: Allows a Pattern Provider to push ingredients to a machine and pull the finished results back using the same face.
  • Benefit: Eliminates the need for separate Import Buses or Item Pipes.
  • Only useful / needed on machines that don't automatically push their results to neighboring machines.

2. Automatic Recipe Insertion: An improved Crafting Terminal workflow.

  • What it does: When you request an autocraft for a recipe in the terminal, the grid enters a "waiting" state with Ghost Items.
  • Benefit: The moment your CPUs finish the job, the items are automatically inserted into the grid. No more waiting around to click the recipe again!
  • Works with JEI, EMI and REI

Auto Import Showcase

This mod (obviously) requires AE2 to be installed. I will not be backporting it. There's a config for the added features.

Includes compatibility with applied flux and me soul card. Since they both add upgrade slots to the pattern provider, I decided to
go the non-invasive route and just add a separate slot to avoid needing mixins into those mods.

@AE2 / RS2 devs: Feel free to copy this feature (and/or code).

Small showcase of the automatic insertion. Notice how the items are automatically loaded into the crafting grid:
