Mekanistic Routers
Integration features between Mekanism and Modular Routers
About this Mod
This mod adds compatibility features between Mekanism and Modular Routers.
Currently, this includes Chemical (Gas) transfer through the Chemical Upgrade and Chemical Mk1 and Mk2 Modules which operate similarly to the built-in Fluid Modules, but well… transferring chemicals.
For Chemical transfer to work, the router buffer must have an item that can store chemicals (i.e. Chemical Tanks). Note: By default, you cannot use the chemical modules to transfer radioactive chemicals. Even if you change this setting in the config, remember that chemical tanks and other built-in Mekanism item chemical containers cannot store radioactive materials, so you cannot use them as a buffer.
Chemical Refill Module: transfers chemical from the router's buffer to the player's inventory (armour, main or offhand). Can be used to wirelessly and cross-dimensionally refill jetpacks or canteens.
