Advanced Networking

A modification that implements advanced systems for transferring resources and data using programmable node networks. Although the project is inspired by mods like Integrated Dynamics and XNet, it maintains its own uniqueness and occupies a special place in modpacks (even though the mentioned counterparts are not available for Fabric). Originally created for Modfest Singularity.

Getting Started

To begin, create crystalline compound using an amethyst shard, a clay ball, and a piece of coal. From this material, you can craft cables and controllers. To open cable settings, crouch and click on it with an empty hand.

In the configuration, you can set the operating mode for each side of the cable. Make one side an interface and assign it a name. Open the controller, add several nodes and connect them. Select your interface in the node settings — and your network is ready to work.

Main Features

Cables

Cables are fundamental elements of the mod — they connect controllers with all necessary components. To quickly change the mode of a side, use a stick or any wrench from other mods. More detailed configuration is available through crouching and clicking on the cable.

Cables automatically connect to each other and to controllers, but not to other blocks. To connect to other blocks, you need to set the interface mode.

Controllers

Controllers contain your programs. They are equipped with a node interface where you can configure resource routing and implement various logic. Add nodes through the "Add Nodes" menu and its submenus.

Deleting nodes is done by right-clicking with the selection of the "Delete" option or through the "Delete Nodes" mode. You can also duplicate nodes from the context menu. In the editor, freely move by dragging and change scale by scrolling.

Resource Transfer and Streams

Among the most important nodes are those responsible for transferring energy, items, and fluids. They work on a stream system: nodes control the direction of resources, and actual transfer occurs after all nodes are evaluated.

There are also nodes for determining storage capacity and fill level — they are evaluated before any transfer begins. Filter and limit nodes allow you to control which items are transferred. The limiter sets the maximum number of items to transfer, and the filter blocks the passage of certain items.

Additional Information

Modpack Compatibility

You can use this mod in any modpacks provided you do not reupload the mod itself. Direct download links are available on Modrinth or GitHub.

Incompatibilities

I strive to maintain compatibility with the maximum number of mods, but may abandon support for some if it becomes too difficult.

• Sodium — compatibility is guaranteed only with Indium installed.
• Optifine — will never be officially supported. May work, may not.
