Infusion Changes

ATM9 adds Mystical Agriculture Tiered Crystals which, as the name suggests, adds tiered crystals. You must use a crystal of the same tier to upgrade to the next one (EX: You have to use an Imperium Crystal to craft Supremium Essence).

  • Master Infusion Crystals now requires 4 SupremiumInsanium.

My Watering Can/Scythe isn’t working

Mystical Agriculture doesn’t allow fake players by default. The config can be changed in config/mysticalagriculture-common.toml -> fakePlayerWatering = true.

My Modular Routers aren’t working

You will need to add a Security Upgrade since you are working in a claimed chunk (even though it’s yours)

This farm requires a general understanding of AE2 and Thermal Series

The “Brain”

First I’ll show you how to build the “brain” of those whole system. You can place it above everything (like in the image above) or underneath the floor.

  1. Place a Sink/Eternal Water Block and an ME Interface on the corners of a Quantum Ring and then place 2x Quartz Fibers/Cable Anchors between the Sink and ME Interface and on the center of the Quantum Ring.
  2. Then place your 2x colored cables (Lime cables) on top of them along with an ME Controller.
  3. The 1x colored cable (Magenta cable) should connect the quantum ring and the ME Interface.
  • Make sure to link your Quantum Rings.

Make sure to put quartz fiber or cable anchors to isolate the Lime cable from your home AE2 system

  1. Place 2x ME Storage Bus on the ME Interface and Sink, facing each other.

ME Storage Bus on both the Sink and ME Interface

  1. Have the ME Interface stock Water and Phyto-Gro and set the priority to -1. ME Interface settings

  2. For the ME Storage Bus on the Sink settings, have the Input/Output Mode to Extract Only and put Water in the filter by dragging it from JEI. Storage Bus on sink settings

The Modules

Now we’ll build one of the “modules” that make up the entire thing. Each column of Phyto/Interface pairs is 8 blocks tall since an AE2 subnet without a controller only has 8 channels. Each wall will use all 32 channels of a dense cable.

  1. Each module consists of 2 Phytos next to each other and an ME Interface on each side.

1.5 If you build the full size farm, the corners will look like this. One of the Phytos will move 90° to one side depending on which corner it’s on.

  1. For the ME Interface, put a Crafting Card in and set Water and Phyto-Gro in the filter by dragging it from JEI.

  2. For the Phytos it’ll be slightly different depending on which side the ME Interface is on. You will have it Auto Input/Output the side touching the interface. The image below is for a phyto with an interface to the left.

  3. Each Phyto will have 1x Draconic Integral Component & 3x Twinite Flux Linkages. This combination provides maximum efficiency, of course you can put the lower tier ones in as you are working up to these.

Why not use Shellite instead of Twinite? KJM explains

The stats for Shellite Flux Linkage is 120% & 1.1x. The stats for the Twinite Flux Linkage is 110% & 1.01x. An MA seed uses 20,000FE to complete one growth operation, and Phytos fill at 20FE/t by default. That 20,000 number is multiplied by the process energy statistic. A single Shellite upgrade would modify it to 22,000FE, and Twinite goes to 20,200FE. The second stat modified is energy usage. Shellite increases the per-tick power consumption to 44FE/t, and Twinite increases it to 42FE/t. A recipe runs for 50 seconds by default since 20,000 divided by 20 divided by 20 (the number of ticks per second) is 50. Placing the numbers in for shellite 22,000/44/20 = 25 and for Twinite 20,200/42/20 = 24. Therefore, Twinite at a base level with a single upgrade is 1 second faster than Shellite. This number is further modified by adding multiple linkages and the integral component.

You’ll stack these modules to a maximum of 8 tall and arrange them into 4 walls.

Tips
  • Use an AE2 Memory Card to copy ME Interface settings (Shift + R-Click to Copy, R-Click to Paste)
  • Use Redprint to copy Phytogenic Insolator settings (R-Click to Copy and to Paste)

Connecting and Powering

You’ll put your Colored Dense Cables in this arrangement, each dense cable branch connects 4 colums of interfaces. You can use whatever energy pipe you want to power the phytos.
