Bulk Cell Tweaks

Bulk Cell Tweaks is a NeoForge addon for Applied Energistics 2 and MEGA Cells. It adds the Bulk Cell Marker, a ME network block that lets you manage the filters of every bulk cell mounted in your network from a single GUI.

Instead of opening each drive, ME chest, or cell dock one by one, the marker discovers all mounted bulk cells through the ME network and presents them in one screen.

Features

• One screen for all bulk cells — every mounted bulk cell appears in a 63-slot grid (with paging for larger networks), in a fixed, predictable order.
• Set or clear filters by hand — left-click a slot with an item to stamp it as that cell's filter, or with an empty hand to clear it. If another cell already has the exact same filter, its contents are moved over first and its mark moves along with the items.
• Auto-mark by amount — one button marks every empty cell based on what your network actually holds: items are sorted by stored amount (largest first) and written into empty cells until none are left. Stranded cells (contents but no filter) are repaired, and duplicate marks are consolidated into a single cell.
• Automatic transfer — after marking, each filtered cell pulls its item type from the rest of the network into itself. Regular cells and storage buses are drained first; bulk cells never pull from each other. Transfers are powered exactly like the IO Port.
• Compression card management — right-click a slot while holding a compression card to install it into that cell, or right-click with an empty hand to take one out. No need to open the cell dock.
• Stranded-cell repair — cells that hold items but lost their filter show their contents in the grid; one click drains them back into the network.

Usage

1. Place the Bulk Cell Marker on your ME network. It requires one channel and draws 2 ae/t while idle.
2. Right-click the block to open its GUI. The marker has no inventory of its own — it works directly on the bulk cells mounted in your drives, ME chests, and cell docks.
3. Use the 63-slot grid to set and clear filters, the arrows in the left toolbar to page through large networks, and the auto-mark button to mark and fill every empty cell at once.

The mod also ships an in-game guide (via GuideME): open the AE2 guide and look for the Bulk Cell Tweaks entry.
