PackagedAuto - Crafting Automation Through Packages

PackagedAuto is an extension for the popular Applied Energistics 2 mod that introduces an innovative approach to handling crafting recipes. The main goal of this addon is to overcome the 9-item limitation in automatic item creation, with versions for Minecraft 1.18.2 and above also adding fluid support.

Although the mod can function independently of Applied Energistics 2, developers strongly recommend installing it together with AE2 to access the full functionality and optimal integration.

Working with PackagedAuto revolves around two key devices - the Packager and Unpackager. First, you need to create two Recipe Holders and program them using an Encoder. Then one holder is placed in the Packager, and the second in the Unpackager, with both devices connected to an ME network.

The Packager accepts required items and converts them into Recipe Packages, which are then transferred to the ME network. The Unpackager, in turn, extracts these packages and outputs the finished items into an adjacent container. Both devices automatically inform the ME network of their capabilities based on the programmed recipe holders.
