Visible Energy
by Chatterjay
Visible Energy is a NeoForge and Forge addon that draws energy device data over the game world, so players can read transfer and network details in place.
What it does
Players use the scan command to find energy devices near them, and matching devices are marked in the world with semi-transparent colored blocks and wireframes. Each mark takes the color of its network, and thin colored lines join input points to the other devices on the same network, which shows the network layout at a glance.
Labels above each device show its name, its network name, the energy transfer rate and the network percentage. The data refreshes automatically about once per second, so the readings follow energy changes as they happen. Devices in other dimensions that belong to the same network are also detected, with their coordinates and chunk loading status shown.
A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge, with the Forge 0.0.1 file for 1.20.1 and the NeoForge 0.0.2 file for 1.21.1. Visible Energy is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only.

Color-coded hints
Green marks an energy input and red marks a high-percentage output, so flow direction is visible at a glance.
