Schematic Energistics
by yrley
Schematic Energistics connects Create's Schematicannon to an AE2 network, so the cannon can pull the items a build needs from storage.
What it does
When a Schematicannon is linked to an AE2 network, it draws the blocks and materials its schematic calls for directly from AE2 storage. Items that are missing can be autocrafted through the network, and gunpowder for the cannon is refilled automatically. The cannon checks nearby containers such as chests and barrels before it requests anything from AE2, so storage that is physically close is used first.
The mod depends on Create and AE2 and is built for both loaders in a single release line. Schematic Energistics is released under the MIT License, but it is not open source. It is a Technology mod with a Utility side, and it runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge, with 1.5.1 as the latest Forge build for 1.20.1 and 1.5.5 as the latest NeoForge build for 1.21.1.
Key features
AE2 storage link
The cannon pulls required items from an AE2 network instead of relying only on containers placed beside it.
Autocrafting of missing items
Items a schematic needs but the network does not hold can be crafted automatically through AE2.
Automatic gunpowder refill
The cannon's gunpowder supply is topped up without manual insertion during a build.
Container priority
Nearby chests, barrels and other containers are checked before the cannon requests items from AE2.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
Use cases
Large Create builds
A base that runs on AE2 storage can feed a Schematicannon directly, so long builds do not depend on hand-filled chests.
Automated material supply
Players who already run autocrafting can have the cannon request missing blocks without leaving the build site.
Who it’s for: Players who run Create and AE2 together on Forge or NeoForge, especially those who build with schematics and want the cannon to draw from their storage network.
