    *Here, I will provide updates and fact checks for these videos.*
    (I will try my best to add corrections if needed)
    - Dense Cables can connect to devices. However, I wouldn't recommend using them for direct connections, as it consumes space on your 8-channel line, limiting connections for other devices.
    - The setup featuring the 2x4x2 Molecular Assembler + Pattern Provider is merely illustrative of how things can connect. You're free to build it according to your needs. Additionally, you can always add more Molecular Assemblers to the sides of the Pattern Providers if desired, as they only require power and not an additional channel. What I showcased in the video was just an example.
    - I was mistaken when I said Level Emitters use a channel. They don't use a channel (the more you know!)

      Missed or said a few incorrect things here and there in the video but I can imagine it's not easy getting everything right, even with a script.
      I myself have used AE2 quite extensively (except for p2p tunnels xD) so I noticed the inconsistencies right away.
      Seems to me that you really tried to make a good video 👍
      Personally I always wanted to make a video similar to this myself but I have zero video making experience so I haven't been motivated enough to do it 😂

    • @Psyzenn
      @Psyzenn Před měsícem

      This video is really good. The only part I disliked it and it is confusing to understand is P2P. You used words such as things and I would prefer example such as sub-nets with furnace. I think that example was so clear it can not be anymore clear and this is coming from a new person to minecraft and a modded one as well.

  • @X33N
    @X33N Před 2 měsíci +108

    I've always preferred the molecular assembler 'chandelier' setup personally but yours is very clear for demonstration purposes. Additional little tips that some might find useful:
    - If you're confused about the whole 'types' vs. 'bytes' on drives, just picture the drives the same as a chest. You have 36 slots in a chest, one slot might hold 64 cobble or one slot might hold one sword. For non-stackable items a chest can hold max 36 items. For stackable items it's 36 stacks of 64, or 2,304 items. Storage drives are just simulated chests; people talk about this 'confusing' mechanic when it's core Minecraft.
    - As you use an ME system over time, the items get fragmented with items spread across multiple storage disks. Again, imagining a series of chests, you might have 3 ender pearls in one chest and another 3 in a second chest, taking two slots. Same thing can happen on storage disks. So to defragment, use the IO Port shown at 15:43. AE fills up disks left to right, top to bottom in a given drive. So take the top left disk out and put it in the IO Port. This will empty everything off that disk into the network and onto the other disks leaving you with an empty disk. Then, pull the rest of the disks out of the drive and off of the network, and place the emptied disk back into top left. Then place all of your remaining disks into the IO Port to be exported. They will fill up the one singular drive as full as possible, including topping off anything that can stack. Take your next emptiest (or empty) disk and put it in top right slot of your drive, and again it will be filled up with as much stackable as possible. Repeat until everything is re-imported, and now you've consolidated your items on disks as much as can be and probably freed up quite a few 'type' slots.
    - The toggle bus and level emitters are pretty quickly gone over, but you can use those paired together to have entire auto-farm subnets only be active when you need items from that farm. Disabling the subnet running the farm can save you unnecessary sounds, energy, and resources depending on what goes into running that particular set of generation. i.e. if you're full of amethyst shards you can turn off the 'ping' 'pong' sounds by disabling the subnet running the formation/destruction planes until more are needed, rather than just using the overflow destruction card and having it running at full blast.
    - Finally, I don't know if AE has optimized around it, but a best practice I have always found for channel maintenance and AE performance is to avoid having loops in the cable. This might be moot now and just a holdover from ye olde days, but I use cable anchors to never have my network have multiple paths the channels might flow. Hub and spoke 100% is safest in my mind.
    Nice work Chosen!

      Thank you both! One question which I find it hard to get a straight answer on. Should i avoid putting NBT items inside ALL ae2 searchable storages? For instance if I just had a chest or (create) Vault with storage bus, could I keep a few specific tools in there or will it lag

    • @Kraus-
      @Kraus- Před 2 měsíci

      I would be more concerned with the clutter than lag. Even if you're not filling up storage disks with NBT items they're still cluttering the interface.

      @TheLukemcdaniel Před měsícem +1

      The chandelier is a top tier setup tho, where you can have all the acceleration cards already made. once it's full of patterns, the chandelier is a PITA to take down to get to everything and fill it out with accel cards.

    Some interesting tidbit i want to share/add:
    1. Molecular Assemblers can do recipe for stonecutter and smithing table.
    2. Think of formation plane as insert-only storage bus, and annihilation plane as import bus. It's weird, but that's just how it works.
    3. Partitioned disk >> drawers! Each item count as 1 bit (8 bits = 1 byte), meaning a 256k disk can store ~2M items. (Caveat: 1 byte can store 8 identical items.)
    4. Storage bus into ME interface to make subnets. Think of the storage bus "reading" ME interface's storage. Just don't abuse it too much or it'll lag heavily.
    5. Molecular assembler can act as a crafter. Just insert the pattern into it. Probably very underrated feature, especially now it can do more than crafting table.
    6. There's other use for energy cells. If you do spatial IO, energy cells are a must.
    7. Co-processor is optional, so long as there's at least 1 crafting storage, it'll work.
    Highly recommend AE2 tutorial by The MindCrafters.

    Thank you for the effort you put into this video to make it easy to understand with examples.
    - Subnets have always confused me, your videos has helped with some concepts that I didn't fully understand while tinkering with AE2 off and on with mod packs.
    - Wireless, hasn't been something I've used but now want to.
    - Chunk loading with anchors, didn't know that was a thing
    - Toggle bus looks helpful
    - I had always used one net, including for the creation and destruction. Thank you for the recommendation to do this on a subnet
    - The farm was neat
    - The P2P I've used, it was a good refresher
    - OMG, making the components for AE2 is so much easier now, I had built so many contraptions in the past

    @kryolith3330 Před 2 měsíci +6

    Nice coverage of the basics of AE2!
    You should mention the Chandelier for autocrafting, it is the most efficient way to use a full dense cable worth of pattern providers (32) with maximum molecular assemblers attached for each.
    Another thing would be the limit of 8 channels in subnets can be circumvented by adding a controller to the subnet, this opens up the flexibility a lot and same rules apply for linking it to the main net with storage bus and interface.

  • @kps393
    @kps393 Před 2 měsíci +3

    Imo the best and most useful way to understand subnets is to make an infinitely expandable drive setup. To do this on one of the cables from your main network place a storage bus, on the back of that place an ME interface, then a fluix cable coming off of that. This fluix cable wont be powered so you need to connect a quartz fiber to it and connect that to your main network, you can just connect it to the cable thats attached to the storage bus. Now you can add 6 ME drives and fill them with as many storage disks as you want and this will only take up 1 channel from your main network. To expand this infinitely, just do the same thing with the storage bus connected to an interface but on the cable connected to the ME drives and repeat. Remember though you can only use 8 channels in each of these subnets so 6 ME drives, interface, and 1 storage bus. Hope this helps.

  • @Captain.Mystic
    @Captain.Mystic Před měsícem +1

    One of my favorite mods, theres very few developers that can pick an aesthetic and theme for a mod and full send it to its logical extreme quite like Applied Energistics. Its kinda funny how meta "Physical Items As Data" is in context of how minecraft works while still feeling like its not breaking immersion.
    Note, while it may be recommended to have your recipes vertical in the pattern interface terminal for speed, for organization this is pretty annoying to deal with for relatively little return. if youre at a point where AE2 autocrafting at max speed becomes a priority to the point where acceleration cards wont cut it, then you are most likely going to be crafting them in large batches anyways. If your modpack allows it, use passive crafting(or multiple machines running parallel in a subnet) if responsiveness is something you are after, but most modpacks arent factorio, the limiting factor wont be your processing speed but the rate of how fast you are going to get materials, and concurrency at the AE/ME level wont really be a limiting factor unless youre playing something insane like gregtech(and even then, youre better off with a subnet).
    Although i am a little confused, did the pattern provider replace the ME Interface in the new update?

    AE2 is my absolute favorite mod of all time. I know people love refined storage because of how simple it is. Tbh i have actually never used refined storage because whenever its been in a pack for me, so has ae2 so i go with that lol. I love the complexity of what you can do with ae2. I played divine journey 2 last year which was my first expert pack, and i really expanded my ae2 knowledge from that. I had a massive controller cube in the center of my base, and had space for over 100 p2ps to connect around my base. Everything was color coordinated and it was super fun to use. Also it was my first time even knowing level emitters were a thing, but they are such a godsend for a pack like dj2 where you need to passively automate sooo many things. I love ae2

    Protip: Use Sophisticated Storage Barrels hooked up to Storage Busses in order to get more efficient storage.
    Drives can only hold so much stuff, but Sophisticated Storage can accept upgrades that increase both the stack size and the number of stacks you can use.
    In one Soph barrel, you can hold over 32k cobblestone in one slot when that'd take up several drives in the ME system.

    To correct how storage cells work:
    They have certain amounts of bytes and always 63 types. Each type used up will consume 8 bytes, no matter what. Each 8 items will consume 1 byte. This means, with 32 logs inside, it will need 1 type, and it will require 12 bytes, because 8 bytes are needed for a type, and the other 4 are the 32 logs (32/8=4)... This means, if you technically only store logs in a 1k (1024) disk, you have enough storage for 1024-8 = 1016 bytes, which with 8 items per byte would mean 8124 logs.... Not 1024... This is extremely important...
    As for the example with when he put a bit more items inside afterwards:
    You have 3 types, so already 24 bytes, and then you have 37 total items, which divided by 8 would be 4.625 bytes... and because you can't have fractional bytes, it will always round up, to 5 bytes here... So in total: 29 bytes, like it said on the storage cell...

    Keep in mind that people also make mods for AE2 as well, for instance someone made a mod that adds a digital storage drive for Botania's Mana. While another person made a mod that adds a digital storage drive for Chemicals from the Mekanism mod.
    On top of that, there is a mod called AE2 things that adds deep storage drives that doesn't have the item type limit. Meaning you could very well have 1,024 swords of varying damage and enchantments levels. However I would still personally recommend against this, as storing large amounts of items with lots of NBT data in a single chunk can corrupt the chunk and cause damage to your world files.

      You forgot thaumic energistics! Yes, thaumcraft is no longer updated, but it allowed for autocrafting through the use of wands and essentia! Probably the best pack to experience that would be the Crackpack 2.

      @hanifarroisimukhlis5989 Před 2 měsíci +1

      Isn't the deep storage disk stores it's data in separate file (kinda like RS)? Not that you should store that much NBT, but...

    • @spoopythescout
      @spoopythescout Před 2 měsíci

      @@hanifarroisimukhlis5989I am unaware of how exactly RS and AE2 store items digitally as the raw files. However the ATM9 modpack has a quest telling people to store apotheosis gems and tools/armor inside normal chests and barrels to avoid having chunks corrupted, as do people discussing things on reddit.

    Ah yes the energy cell segment talking abt my greatest pain with this mod, the fuckin brownouts if you move too much stuff without having a cell or 2 set up. It took me weeks to figure out that little trick i always assumed the cells were nothing more than a novelty bc i hadnt really pushed my power grid hard enough to get brownouts in my AE system but yeah once i figured that one out the early game became MUCH less painful (im not joking yall get a power cell down super early and just let it fill up the first tier of them are basically dirt cheap and even just one will keep your power supply alive until you start getting into larger craft orders and shit like that

  • @wolfsquared
    @wolfsquared Před 2 měsíci

    People that get confused about drives and types, think of them as chests with 1 extra row. Each slot holds one type. Some slots are stacks. So bigger drives are good for many items that stack. Several smaller drives are good for lots of unique items

  • @problemchild959
    @problemchild959 Před 2 měsíci

    Just side note on the overflow destruction cards. I learned this the hard way in another pack. Make sure you ALWAYS partition the drive before adding one. If the drive is not partitioned and anything you add or craft hits that drive it will get deleted. Took me 2 hours of debugging an me system to figure out why every time I crafted an item it was not in the system.

    What an awesome video Chosen architect. Thankyou. I will use thuis 9n my own atm9 play. But i have a question: why should you prefer AE2 above Refined Storage? This mods feels a bit easier to handle and does a bit more relaxed with storage. Like a 16k disk can handle 16k single items. So what makes AE2 the way to go?

    Can you add what version of AE2 you are covering in the title or description? I've tried some of these things and the blocks/functionality isn't there. I assume this for 15.0.X versions.

  • @spadeofhearts713
    @spadeofhearts713 Před 18 dny

    Question. In the auto crafting part where you hook up the 4 pattern provider / assembler pillars to the network, why can’t you just push them all together into one multi block structure and hook them up with a dense cable?

    You actually don't need Co-Processing Units for the Pattern Provider to use more than one Molecular Assembler. You only need the Crafting Storage. The Co-Processors are only used to parallize multi stage crafting chains like "to make a fence i need sticks and planks, i can make sticks and planks in parallel". This can use 3 Co-Processors. You could have three Pattern Provider for the three recipes with their own Molecular Assemblers. You can see the Co-Processors working when looking in your crafting status.

    I saw a comment elsewhere saying using nothing but smart cable on a very large network can cause fps lag, because they're always rendered. If true, this would also be a good reason to use covered cables and only use the smart ones in areas where you need to see how many channels are in use.

Is there any way to set this up in order to make it try and go into the Integration Block first I also had the same problem with RS.

    Hey ChoseArchitect, great tutorial, if there are corrections in the future may I request putting “update/correction” or something that lets us the viewer know that there was a correction there in the time stamp list? It would everyone’s life easier to just go to that particular time stamp to see what was changed.

    So I have AE2 in my modpack with create. Obviously I don't want all my create farms in one location for sake of frames and lag.

I'd also like to run less trains to move my items to one place.... is this possible to have network connections without running the cables or training everything to my main network..??

    • @ChosenArchitect
      @ChosenArchitect  Před 2 měsíci

      If the vine grows potentially because what the annihilation plane will do is actually break the block and it will take in the contents that came from breaking that block. So you would also need some system for filtering. I think some sort of clicking machine would work much better if you could right click harvest vines that you're talking about.
