AE Crafting Tracker

AE Crafting Tracker

A Minecraft NeoForge 1.21.1 mod that provides real-time visual feedback for AE2 crafting status.

Features

Pattern Provider Highlighting

• Automatically detects active Pattern Providers in your AE2 network
• Color-coded highlights:
  • 🟢 Green — Provider is actively crafting
  • 🟡 Yellow — Provider is stalled (busy but no progress)
  • 🔴 Red — Provider is stuck (locked, output full, or missing ingredients)
• Shows output item icons above highlighted providers
• Configurable highlight colors and opacity

Network Locator

• Craftable item that scans AE networks for blocks matching your filter items
• 9 filter slots in the GUI — drag items from EMI or manually place
• Bind the locator by shift-clicking on an AE network controller/access point
• Highlights matching blocks on the network with distance info
• Works across dimensions (scan only active when in the same dimension as the bound position)
• Instant network switch detection: clear old highlights and scan new network immediately
• Instant drop detection: all highlights clear when item is dropped

Runtime Mode

• Enable runtime highlighting via the button in the locator screen
• Highlights persist even when the locator GUI is closed
• Toggle on/off freely without affecting your config settings

Dependencies

• Minecraft 1.21.1
• NeoForge 21.1+
• Applied Energistics 2 (AE2) — runtime
