About this Mod
Expanded AE currently only adds a few new features. This mod is community-driven, so suggest any ideas you might have and they might get added.
1.20.1 and 1.21.1 are both being actively worked on! I will try to keep their features somewhat equal, but no promises :)
What's included currently:
Expanded Pattern Provider which has 72 slots for patterns so you don't have to build workarounds if you require more pattern slots for one machine, also added is the cable part version.
Upgrade item, so you can upgrade existing pattern providers while keeping their patterns in them.
Extra blocking modes for your pattern provider.
Pattern modification within pattern providers.
Expanded Pattern Encoding Terminal + Wireless Version: Pattern multiplication/division within the terminal, shift clicking while encoding places pattern into your inventory.
Pattern Refiller Card for Wireless Expanded Encoding Terminal.
Auto Complete Card for pattern providers.
Co-Processing units from 2x up to 1M cores!
Note: If you want more in-depth explanations, check the github readme or ingame guide!

Expanded AE server crashes on startup – what to do?

Server lagging with Expanded AE – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Expanded AE consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
