Mekanism: QIO Autocrafter
No reviews yet
Adds a Mekanism-integrated autocrafting machine that uses the QIO system as its only inventory, allowing fully automated crafting directly from your stored resources.
Focuses on automation and resource processing through scientific and mechanical means, utilizing systems like electricity (RF/FE/etc), air pressure, or rotation.
Features machines that process raw materials or automation processes.
Enhances farming mechanics and introduces new crops and livestock.
Includes quality of life improvements and small tweaks to enhance and customize gameplay.
Forge is a popular mod loader for versions 1.1+ of Minecraft.

QIO AutoCrafter
Autocrafting for Mekanism's QIO system — no cables, no interfaces, no pattern chests.
QIO AutoCrafter adds a single machine that plans and executes crafting recipes directly against a QIO frequency. Ask it for an item, and it figures out the whole recipe tree on its own: which intermediates to craft, how many of each, and whether your stored materials are enough — then crafts everything virtually, straight from and into your QIO storage.
Features
- Recursive auto-crafting — request a deep Mekanism item (induction cells, control circuits, energy cubes…) and the machine resolves the full recipe chain automatically. No patterns to encode, ever.
- QIO-native — materials are taken from the bound QIO frequency and results go back into it. The machine itself stores nothing but energy.
- Smart planning — runs asynchronously off the server thread, prefers materials you already have, understands tag variants (any log → planks), and reports exactly which base materials you're missing and how many.
- Missing Materials panel — live side panel listing every missing item with its icon, the amount needed and how much is already available, color-coded red/orange/green as you restock.
- Job queue — queue up to 24 requests; completed jobs clean themselves up, failed ones tell you why, and cancelling returns every reserved material to the QIO.
- Safe by design — materials are reserved before crafting and rolled back on any failure. Chunk unloads and server restarts mid-craft don't dupe or void items.
- Multiplayer ready — respects Mekanism frequency security (Public / Trusted / Private): nobody can drain a private frequency through your machine.
- Upgrades — supports Speed and Energy upgrades.
Interface
Search any craftable item, set the amount (up to 9,999,999), press Start and watch the queue. The activity bar shows what the machine is doing at all times.
The Missing button opens the side panel: every missing material with live availability from your QIO, updating as you restock.
🔧 Getting started
- Craft the machine (endgame recipe — see below).
- Bind a frequency: right-click the machine with a Portable QIO Dashboard that has your frequency selected.
- Power it (any Forge Energy / Mekanism cable works).
- Right-click to open the GUI, search an item, set the amount and press Start.
Crafting recipe
| Ultimate Induction Provider | Supermassive QIO Drive | Ultimate Induction Provider |
| Supermassive QIO Drive | Robit | Supermassive QIO Drive |
| Ultimate Induction Provider | Supermassive QIO Drive | Ultimate Induction Provider |
It's meant to be a late-game reward — by the time you can afford four Supermassive QIO Drives, you really don't want to hand-craft induction matrices anymore.
Requirements
| Minecraft | 1.20.1 (Forge 47.4+) |
| Required | Mekanism 10.4.16+ |
| Sides | Client and server (same version on both) |
Works great alongside Mekanism Generators / Tools / Extras.
⚠️ Good to know ⚠️
- If a recipe tree is too deep for the planning budget, the job fails with a clear message; queue a simpler intermediate first and retry.
- Frequency binding currently requires the Portable QIO Dashboard (no in-GUI frequency selector yet).
