AE2's devices are often modular, i. Second is to simply fill a tank and use a fluid storage bus to show it to the network. (4th picture) So if you make each set of the controllers max size and have all the faces connect to the center network you can have ALOT of channels. What any P2P tunnel does is connect 1 input to any number of outputs for a specific resource. AE2 has a 'spatial storage' component. . My controller outputs 32 channels from one side directly into a p2p bus. Basically one network handling all the p2p channels, and one handling the non. #1.

Even if you have enough overall power to cover everything, you might not have enough tick-to-tick surge. If you just want to read opinions, then you can find a lot of existing threads by using the search bar. AE2 can be complex if you want it to be, that's for. Note that you can send P2P channels through quantum bridges (but not other P2P tunnels), so if you're careful about P2P'ing everything in the most efficient way possible, you in effect get 32*32 = 1024 channels through a single bridge. Basically, a single face of a controller can connect to a P2P input bus using a single channel. Any help would be greatly appreciated. net The server is not on prestige mode Certain aspects.

But you can't attach any devices onto Dense Cable, so you must have smaller cables branch out from the Dense Cable, while the. Most devices such as standard. If you need help with any of that, I would suggest you visit the pack Discord. yep it requires more channels since each interface uses one. In one instance, I set up a production line, started adding the little bits of AE I needed and ran out of channels on that line and had move most of it over to a separate line. In 1. 4. Also, get yourself an Interface Terminal. I have a single Interface with patterns like (Gold, Silicon, Redstone)->(Proccessor) The gold/silicon goes off to their respective inscribers, while the redstone goes off to the final "assembly" inscriber. Surround the interface with 6 assemblers. Change the interface thats on the bottom on the 4th image. We try to simplify complicated matter so that everyone can enjoy the mods being shown. Doesnt matter which terminal, even the Fluid Terminal of Extra Cells 2 does count. You can get more by utilizing every side you have and that would make it worth it you also don’t need dense cables coming off each thing you can place p2ps directly on the controllers unless you are doing it for aesthetics. Every part in AE2 has an internal energy buffer, but it's small. Angelin01. Refined Storage is best defined as "AE simplified". (In case anyone wants to know, program used for images is called Dia, I actually use it for keeping track of my ME systems in a very similar manner to what is shown. You mentioned "AE2 power banks. Of course, it is limited by the number of channels a cable attached to it can carry. to be more precise, dense cable offer 32 and normal 8.

That would have saved me SO much complexity! Although it was pretty fun over the last few years having to plan out upgrades very carefully and get p2p tunnels to the right places. If you have smart, covered, or normal ME cables attached to dense cables, the dense cables still can carry the same 32 channels but the other cables can only continue up to 8 of those channels of the 32 in that line. Replace the left P2P bus (on your controller network) with a Storage Bus.
