AE2 Terminal Mouse Wheel Scrolling
by Theoman9402
AE2 Terminal Mouse Wheel Scrolling lets a player cycle through installed terminals with the mouse wheel while an Applied Energistics 2 network is open.
What it does
Holding a key bound to the mod lets the mouse wheel step through the terminals a player has installed, so switching between an ME terminal, a crafting terminal and a pattern terminal does not need a menu. Scrolling follows the installed terminal order, which places the Universal Terminal first when it is present.
Scrolling works with terminals added by other mods, and the key can be left unbound so the wheel scrolls through active terminals on its own. The code runs on the client alone and has no server component. The mod is for NeoForge and targets 1.21.1 only. It requires Applied Energistics 2 and Applied Energistics 2 Wireless Terminals, and the code is under the MIT License, so it is open source.
Key features

Active terminal scrolling

Switching between terminals in a large base
A player running several terminals from one network can move between them quickly during a build.
Wireless terminal workflows
Players who carry Applied Energistics 2 Wireless Terminals can cycle them from the same wheel gesture.
Who it’s for: Players on NeoForge 1.21.1 who use Applied Energistics 2 terminals and want a faster way to switch between them. Only the client needs the mod, so servers can run without it.
