Mekanism Advanced Generators

Solar power for the whole Mekanism journey - nine tiers of solar panels, big 3x3 solar generators, and energy cubes and universal cables that go far beyond Ultimate.

📦 Requires NeoForge 1.21.1, Mekanism and Mekanism Generators 10.7.11 or newer · install on the client and the server

✨ Features

• ☀️ Nine solar panel tiers - Advanced, Hybrid, Ultimate Hybrid, Quantum, Spectral, Singular, Light Absorbing, Photonic and Creative, from 150 J/t up to 10 MJ/t, each tier three times the one before.
• 🏗️ Big solar generators - a 3x3 panel on a pole, like Mekanism's Advanced Solar Generator, in all nine tiers: six times a panel of the same tier, and they heat a Thermal Evaporation Plant.
• 🌦️ Real Mekanism solar rules - more power in hot, dry biomes, less in the rain, nothing under a roof or at night.
• 🔋 Energy cubes past Ultimate - Cosmic, Supreme, Infinity and Galactic, up to 1.05 TJ, with Mekanism's side configuration, energy core and charge slots; upgrading a cube keeps its energy and settings.
• ⚡ Universal cables past Ultimate - four glowing tiers up to 33.6 GJ/t that join Mekanism's energy networks.
• 📱 Energy tablets - seven bigger tablets to charge your gear and craft the higher tiers.
• 🔇 Mekanism through and through - Mekanism's GUIs, security, redstone control, comparators, configuration cards and the muffling upgrade.
• ⚙️ Every number configurable - generation, buffers, cube capacity and output, cable capacity, tablet energy.

🔨 Crafting

Solar elements (black glass, lapis dust and enriched materials) and control circuits turn Mekanism's Solar Generator into the Advanced Solar Panel, each panel into the next tier, and four panels into a big generator (shapeless crafting gives them back); the stored energy goes along with every upgrade. Cubes and cables start from Mekanism's Ultimate ones. All recipes are in JEI.

⚙️ Configuration
