AE2AddonLib

This library is designed to simplify the integration of addon modifications into the Applied Energistics 2 ecosystem.

Registry

Several helper classes are provided for content registration, eliminating complex processes. All you need to do is create your classes and call relevant methods that handle everything independently — you won't have to work with deferred registration. The library takes care of container classes and uses AE2's definitions for operation; it also supports extra types like materials and fluids.

Widgets

The library gives access to user interface graphics from AE2 and introduces new widgets:

• General interface buttons;
• Reusable buttons with distinct appearance;
• Machine-setting togglers;
• Side-screen action buttons;
• A full-fledged color picker and a fluid widget.

Extra Widgets

• Slider
• Color Picker
• Updated ToolbarActionButton
• Fluid Tank Slot

Screens

Additional windows such as ‘Output Direction’ and ‘Set Amount’ allow you to create convenient and user-friendly interfaces.

Networking

‘NetworkHandler’ performs all packet-related operations, freeing you from networking chores.

Utility Classes

Alongside the main features, the library includes various helpful tools:

• The Colors class offers color conversion and utility;
• BlockUpgradeItem supports upgrade items;
• WaterBasedFluidType creates fluid textures;
• AddonEnum helps handle compatibility with other modifications;
