Telling your nuclear reactor that you will turn it into dirt just set me off laughing for a solid 10 minutes. I think it reminded me of all the times ive threatened printers at work
reminds me about the joke of how experts in most fields are enthusiastic about it, but computer engineers keep a loaded gun in case their printer makes an unexpected noise
@@swedneck "the most recent piece of technology i own is a printer from 2004 and i keep a loaded gun ready to shoot it if it ever makes an unexpected noise"
the threat to the vacnuke felt so genuine, i kind of want to see how Goose would go about turning the components of his vacnuke into a dirt to make a manure farm.
A goose: I don't like Factorio, because it's all about thinking of a solution and then spending hours just implementing the solution you already know. Also a goose: I spent 30 hours creating automation recipes for things I've already made.
I've worked with dozens of Gooses in my time and Goose is absolutely the most Systems Engineer of them all. And I hope that comes across as the highest tier compliment that can be given.
the best way to understand is to go through it yourself (But you can do an easier greg pack like nomifactory; gtnh takes a lot more effort to do things.)
@@calvindang7291 Nomi CEU my absolute beloved. Though I never got past IV because my entire system became such a mess that I'd need to tear it all up again and redo it and I got so stuck trying to make it look nice I put it on the backburner forever... I should just start over

It really depends on the modpack you choose to tackle gregtech in. New horizons imo takes it to an extreme, I reccomend you try FTB Interactions instead, or StaTech Industry for something more "modern minecraft"
it made me try GTNH and my friends have been loving it. It was painful at first but after getting a hang of it we've been having a fantastic time. we have 300 hours in it each, and we're not close to getting burnt out yet

16:39 The running theory is that this "sometimes" happens every time you accidentally click the pattern in the grid borders instead of in a valid position for a pattern, and should thus be avoidable
For the record, its very likely that your "deleted" backpack was somewhere in your ME system if you reloaded the world. That kind of bug happens all the time when a JEI crafting button happens to line up with an inventory slot just wrong
There’s actually two stages of this challenge where you repeatedly jump off your island. One stage in the beginning when you need corpse dirt. And the second stage now, when you jump off in frustration at all the automation you have to manage.
One of my favorite parts of this series is, having played hundreds of hours of 1.12.2+ gregtech but no more than 1 of GTNH, seeing various solutions particular to GTNH and its particular suite of 1.7.10 quirks and addons. The detail you go into about everything you do means I really get to learn something new every episode
This guy is my favourite RUclipsr rn. The only RUclipsr i get very exited to watch, although my smol brain can't comprehend half of what's happening in the video. Bcs of him i will play GTNH ,when i upgrade my setup
Oh my poor poor soul, don't do it. This way lies madness, look at our poor goose here. But if you are determined to do it use the newer Java version of the pack and know a SPEED RUN is 5000 hours, a casual 1 to 2 hours a day player can expect their run to last years.
Fun facts about Applied Energistics: - You can request crafting for something even if you already have some by middle-clicking on it in a terminal. - You can add directionality to interfaces (like you do for GregTech power cables). Right-clicking an interface with a wrench makes it "point" away from where you right-clicked. It will only deposit items in that direction. - Non-directional interfaces (their default state) conduct channels, and so do molecular assemblers. (Molecular assemblers do conduct channels but don't use a channel.) I think your cables on the outside of the interface + molecular assembler tower are unnecessary.
With the sheer quantity of enderio item conduits that seem to need to be set to just "Export, Always Active" it might be a good idea to get a Conduit Probe that's just set to "Export, Always Active"
The crash when inserting paterns is a known crash that occurs when you click just outside the actual item slot with a pattern. Basically the interface terminal crashes you for misclicking.
@@NeuroticGoose Luckily as you said nothing really happens, you just have to rejoin the world. It does place an invisible version of the pattern into the interface you were trying which will drop when you open it.
I can't tell when I stopped paying attention to the mechanics, but pretending like I've been following along with what's happening is fascinating as always
It’s even more powerful in modern versions, now regular standard pattern providers, export busses, import busses, storage busses, etc. just work with fluids. And Mekanism chemicals and Botania mana and Ars source and…
GOOOOOSE How could you release the next episode of this fantastic series when I haven't managed to eat everything up until now yet?? keep going, i love this
while i was thoroughly enjoying the "old minecraft" flavorings emanating from your old base, this new, elegant futuristic base is speaking wonderfully to my design sensibilities. it's lovely and if i can say it, i'm happy that you decided to go through with it.
Honestly I just binge watched the whole series in 3 days and this has been so nice to watch. I've never been good with tech mods so everything you do feels geniunely smart or like something I would chaotically flail into doing /pos
For the record, the infinite jankery surrounding fluids showcased at the start of this video is only relevant on these older versions of Minecraft. AE2 for later versions just support fluids natively, so no fluid-item bullshit needed! Luckily for me, I never needed to deal with this kind of thing, only fluids in crafting recipes or automation involving JUST fluids, so I've never personally had to do this kind of chicanery.
I've had a buffer overflow in a single chunk happen when a nuclear reactor detonates. But I've also had it with a dozen other redstone mods doing really wacky things. It could be worth double checking the safeties, but who really knows unless you actually can debug a crash dump.
honestly goose, if you ever did stream id be there so fast. you might think that you wouldnt talk much, but with this level of a following youd be talking with chat almost non-stop and can really break things down bit by bit in real time
Your comment about forcing yourself to care about how something looks because it makes you think about power and item logistics put into words a something I’ve thought about a lot recently while playing satisfactory
You know, channels pass through all fullblock ME blocks, including interfaces. There's no need to run me cable alongside a row of adjacent interfaces, the channels just pass through the interfaces themselves
@@TheQuinn50 Flowers are the laziest way to do assemblers, and they DO work well, but 1 interface to 1 assembler gets you better parallelization. Molecular Assemblers are fast, but five different assemblers crafting the components for one thing is still faster than one assembler crafting all five of those things in sequence. In most instances, this doesn't really matter, as crafting chains are sparse enough, and typically short enough, that having a large enough number of patterns in a single chain on a single assembler to matter isn't really statistically likely. This, however, is not most instances. This is GregTech. (Also, if you can easily afford two dozen interfaces and two dozen assemblers, you might as well just do it this way anyway.)
it is fun, me and my friends starting playing because of this series. as long as you like this kind of game, like if you liked factorio or satisfactory, you'll probably like this too.
God the stuff about logistics and aesthetics is real. I'm pretty awful at both, and that might be connected lol. Always love seeing new episodes of this, watching you talk about this stuff is just so nice. You've got a great combo of humor and delivery that makes my anxiety take a god damn chill pill and just enjoy the ride.
Now that I've caught up with the series, two questions 1: How do you conjure the sheer patience and attention span to do all this? 2: I believe we must now demand a Cat Tax from you. This isn't a question but I'm asking it anyway.
My favorite thing to do with crafting patterns is to make dedicated mechanism machine setups for the common materials, and then tell it that “yes, 8 diamonds and 1 obsidian makes 16 of this part, don’t sweat that there’s like 3 or 4 processing steps in between, and there’s several inputs unaccounted for. I also have made a few crafting recipes that just told it that it could craft something from nothing, for things like an igneous extruder
For AE2 Autocrafting, I used the naming scheme of `Machine Name [Tier, Circuit] {F (if dual interface)}` - Assembling Machine [EV, 4] {F} = EV Assembling machine on circuit 4, with dual interface - Extruder [IV, Pipe] = IV Extruder with pipe mold, regular interface - Fluid Solidifer [IV, Ingot] {F} = IV Fluid Solidifier with ingot mold, dual interface
9:30 ME terminals of all kinds love to eat items in your 9th hotbar slot. Usually it just ends up back in the ME system, so I'm somewhat surprised you didn't get it back. 10:40 Me Block interfaces are able to transfer energy, because they also transfer channels (up to 8), you don't need the extra line of cable next to them.
Nothing accepts power from a flat interface. Nor from storage busses or export issues or etc. they don’t provide a network connection in that direction. This allows fun useful stuff with subnets. The “intended” assembler setup is a 3d checkerboard of assemblers and interfaces, though other arrangements are more optimized for other things like pattern density or crafting speed. Also, interfaces conduct channels, so you could have just made a column of 8 or less interfaces and they’d all connect.
Your molecular assembler towers work fine with a 3x3 grid of molecular assemblers making an X and the interfaces in the 4 side gaps of that x. I just have a dense cable feed regular cables to the interfaces and the signals propagate straight up and not break the 8 per cable limit. You do not need the colored cables on the sides of your towers. (For more speed put molecular assemblers on all four sides of the interfaces.
You can middle click on items/fluids in AE2 patterns to set quantities directly. Quite convenient, even if these days you don't need to enable NEI cheat mode to set amounts on NEI ghost items. Aren't QoL upgrades great? You can reset fluid crafting patterns by (sneak?) right clicking them against air...I think. Something like that. I forget the details, but there's some way to clear them back into a blank pattern.
for crafting multiblocks, if you put an me interface (the flat kind) on an me interface that is connected to your system, you can create a cable subnetwork with the flat me interface and add storage buses connected to that subnetwork to make multiblock crafting require far fewer enderio cables
Hey, at 10:37 you actually don’t need to connect each block interface with blue wire, block interfaces can conduct 8 channels and power, so they’re kinda equivalent to fiber cables Btw, your update schedule is impressive, regarding quality of each episode( and amount of effort you put to work). Great work! Keep it up
you *can* in fact tell your AE system to always keep crafting something, and still be manually being requestable, at the cost of it taking up CPU time. If you set up an interface with an output request and a storage bus on the other side, and give the interface a crafting card, it will stock those items to a limit for you. if a stack is not enough, you can use export buses with crafting cards on containers
Autocrafting recipes that require both items and liquids is tricky. You need to fill an item bus and a fluid hatch using a single dual interface and as you saw with the sulfur item, it's easy to mess it up. Now you are probably already using a similar solution, but you can do this with a subnetwork where you send from dual interface into subnetwork dual interface, which then sends the items to a storage bus attached to an input bus and a fluid storage bus attached to a fluid hatch. It does mean you need 4 devices instead of 1 for every machine where you want to do this but hey it works. Also fun fact you can right click stocking busses with a wire cutter (I think, may be a screwdriver instead) to make em count as an ME cable, making em able to connect to other ME machines from any side. You could make a distillation tower with 8 ME fluid output busses and only attach a cable to the bottom one.
I think I know what happened to the backpack. If you go frame by frame at 9:19, the backpack is actually there for 1 frame. I believe that when you clicked the question mark to pull up the recipe, you actually also "clicked" the backpack (which just so happened to be in the same spot as the question mark). Since you clicked it without clicking it, the game removed it from your inventory as if you were picking it up to move it, but did not put it in your cursor so that you could put it back down. Technically speaking, I believe this to be a JEI glitch rather the a GregTech glitch...
I'm having a hard time keeping track of what you're actually doing. Not because you explain it badly, but I hardly played any mods in 1.7.10. That's why I hardly know any machines/mechanics from back then. No matter how you put it, the relaxed yet focused style is truly relaxing to watch. And I really appreciate how you speak properly and don't scream/"Oh my god, what just happened"/"Now let's take this base to the next level" bullshit talk all the time. Thanks for your style!
It's gregtech machines, as he mentioned in this episode, he's going from single block processing to multiblocks. Think of it like If thermal and Immersive engineering were the same mod, as you go from the base tier to the Hardened, you could make a hardened multiblock that did the same thing and to upgrade to the next tier all you had to do was upgrade the power import blocks. Not EXACTLY what Gregtech does but close enough to get the point across
Almost nothing from this episode is 1.7 exclusive, except for the GTNH-exclusive blocks that they added which make sense if you know the fundimentals. AE2 fundimentals haven't changed, so if you've used it in 1.16 nothing here should be that confusing. To someone who's played modern modpacks, the only part of the entire series that should really feel super unfamiliar is the witchery, thaumcraft, bees, and some specific greg stuff stuff they did. Everything else is ported similarly to modern versions, such that the changes are minimal enough that following along and spotting those differences is easy enough. If you just haven't played modern modded either, then yes, of course things will be less familiar. The machines themselves are of course gregtech-exclusive, but there's nothing strange about them that differs from other machines in a way that hasn't been explained at some point in the series.
You can configure circuits on stocking input buses clicking on the middle low slot, the one with an overlay of a circuit. If you shift click it, it opens a panel where you can select a circuit number, This also applies to any input bus you find with that icon.
Ah, full automation. Wonderful. I can’t wait for the bee breeding episodes where we see Goose bend the seasons of the world to his whim. Also probably worth mentioning that this little known RUclipsr “ThreeFold” has a setup for turbine redstone that is about… twelve redstone components, including wires? Not including output lines, but it turns the turbines on when power goes below a certain threshold, and back off when above. Basically, curb the spin-up cost for just the cost of some red crystal components, which is thaumcraft, so I can’t imagine that being a problem. On topic, excited to see ichorium armor, what, next episode? Hopefully! Slight tangent, seeing the modpack-inherent issues makes me rather relieved. I recently finished play-testing my own, and one of its core mods is a buggy mess whose procedurally generated dimensions tank the tps of the server until it auto-restarts because a tick took too long, as well as having issues transporting high-nbt-containing tile entities (read: AE2) into said dimensions and maybe wiping them entirely clean. Given that neither of these are world-corrupting and I am including several warnings in the quest book about it, I feel rather good about the stability of my pack. Granted I would love to figure out why loading chunks in a specific dimension slowly tanks the tps, but Im happy with what I have
Both ME Interfaces and Molecular Assemblers transfer channels through them by contact same as cables. Your colored cable setup is going to cause a massive loop. On the other hand, this also means you can make a 2x2xYES box of interfaces and assemblers and run all of them off a single jumbo cable, since only the interfaces require channels.
if you want really fast auto crafting from molecular assemblers, you can build a 'power flower' similar to projectE ones with interfaces interlaced with assemblers. this gives the interfaces access to multiple assemblers multithreading the crafting
With respect to your stack of molecular assemblers: I've always gone with the "christmas tree" for those. If you haven't run across it, it's super handy, because it comes with a list of "make this many of $list" which might be of use for your specific instance. It also comes with a bunch of handy notes about -why- it works in the way it does and how best to make it work faster and better; select from this list in this order, sort of thing. I do highly recommend it, over the standalone wall option.
AE2 doesn't try to craft something using a recipe where desired thing is a byproduct. Because that would be quite inconvenient to manage. It will just account for byproducts in the multistep recipes. Example being you recipe needs 500 X and 1000 Y. Making 500 X will also result in 500 Y as byproduct. So the system will only craft additional 500 Y, instead of making a 1000 and having 500 left over.
Hey love the vids! Small tip: you can really speed up and make building multi blocks less annoying with ae by creating a recipe with a piece of paper named like "LCR" and then making the inputs every block in that structure and putting the named paper as the output. After that just put an interface with that recipe on a chest and cycle the paper back in the ae system with an export bus and a level emitter with a crafting card.

I am amazed of this series. I never played or will play Minecraft let alone this monstrosity but Goose makes this series simply amazing to watch.
I genuinely hope you find great success doing this.
The commentary alone is pure gold.
MY only guess is the buffer overflow error happened because the reactor tried to explode. But it exploded too hard and it broke the game
How does this lad not have 100K plus subs yet? This consistent upload schedule and quality is actually insane! Thanks mr. Goose!
My favorite thing to do with crafting patterns is to make dedicated mechanism machine setups for the common materials, and then tell it that “yes, 8 diamonds and 1 obsidian makes 16 of this part, don’t sweat that there’s like 3 or 4 processing steps in between, and there’s several inputs unaccounted for.
I also have made a few crafting recipes that just told it that it could craft something from nothing, for things like an igneous extruder
Oh the goose, so smoothly doth it crest
Thank you for the weekly episodes. These videos are great to warch right before bed after a long day of work~
For AE2 Autocrafting, I used the naming scheme of `Machine Name [Tier, Circuit] {F (if dual interface)}`
- Assembling Machine [EV, 4] {F} = EV Assembling machine on circuit 4, with dual interface
- Extruder [IV, Pipe] = IV Extruder with pipe mold, regular interface
- Fluid Solidifer [IV, Ingot] {F} = IV Fluid Solidifier with ingot mold, dual interface
9:30 ME terminals of all kinds love to eat items in your 9th hotbar slot. Usually it just ends up back in the ME system, so I'm somewhat surprised you didn't get it back.
10:40 Me Block interfaces are able to transfer energy, because they also transfer channels (up to 8), you don't need the extra line of cable next to them.
We're so welcome back
Be careful with the ME-Level Maintainer. These things work like crafting cards and using too many of them will eventually lag out your game
Nothing accepts power from a flat interface. Nor from storage busses or export issues or etc. they don’t provide a network connection in that direction. This allows fun useful stuff with subnets. The “intended” assembler setup is a 3d checkerboard of assemblers and interfaces, though other arrangements are more optimized for other things like pattern density or crafting speed.
Also, interfaces conduct channels, so you could have just made a column of 8 or less interfaces and they’d all connect.
This is one of my favorite series on RUclips
Your molecular assembler towers work fine with a 3x3 grid of molecular assemblers making an X and the interfaces in the 4 side gaps of that x. I just have a dense cable feed regular cables to the interfaces and the signals propagate straight up and not break the 8 per cable limit. You do not need the colored cables on the sides of your towers. (For more speed put molecular assemblers on all four sides of the interfaces.
Good to know. At some point once I have enough crafting to justify it, I will need to switch that system out anyway, so don't think it is permanent.
You can middle click on items/fluids in AE2 patterns to set quantities directly. Quite convenient, even if these days you don't need to enable NEI cheat mode to set amounts on NEI ghost items. Aren't QoL upgrades great?
You can reset fluid crafting patterns by (sneak?) right clicking them against air...I think. Something like that. I forget the details, but there's some way to clear them back into a blank pattern.
the grey and white void you build on because you can get stacks upon stacks for like 8 easy to get blocks screams "industry"
for crafting multiblocks, if you put an me interface (the flat kind) on an me interface that is connected to your system, you can create a cable subnetwork with the flat me interface and add storage buses connected to that subnetwork to make multiblock crafting require far fewer enderio cables
Listen goose, that Vac-nuke was trying to help you and your addiction
Jokes aside, its amazing youve done this so constantly
I loved when he went "It's goosing time" and goosed everywhere
Haven't even watched the video but I'm sure i won't understand it at all. Great as always
thanks insane fowl lol
i enjoy dad jokes sometimes
the intensity of this is crazy and to see it done is awesome as usual
I miss how ugly your base used to look since it was relatable :(
Thanks for the video. Had a terrible day, but this made it way better.
Hey, at 10:37 you actually don’t need to connect each block interface with blue wire, block interfaces can conduct 8 channels and power, so they’re kinda equivalent to fiber cables
Btw, your update schedule is impressive, regarding quality of each episode( and amount of effort you put to work). Great work! Keep it up
you *can* in fact tell your AE system to always keep crafting something, and still be manually being requestable, at the cost of it taking up CPU time. If you set up an interface with an output request and a storage bus on the other side, and give the interface a crafting card, it will stock those items to a limit for you. if a stack is not enough, you can use export buses with crafting cards on containers
All hail the goose.
Saying "multiple multiblocks simultaniously" quickly multiple times in a row is surprisingly easy, actually.
Excellent. A way to feed my video addiction now I've run out. Now if only there was a place to submit fan art.
You may be asking yourself... What is he going to craft with all of that crafting?
...
I am too.
I hate to break it to you, this obscene amount of crafting is very average for GTNH, this is like early mid game going off voltage tiers
Autocrafting recipes that require both items and liquids is tricky. You need to fill an item bus and a fluid hatch using a single dual interface and as you saw with the sulfur item, it's easy to mess it up. Now you are probably already using a similar solution, but you can do this with a subnetwork where you send from dual interface into subnetwork dual interface, which then sends the items to a storage bus attached to an input bus and a fluid storage bus attached to a fluid hatch. It does mean you need 4 devices instead of 1 for every machine where you want to do this but hey it works.
Also fun fact you can right click stocking busses with a wire cutter (I think, may be a screwdriver instead) to make em count as an ME cable, making em able to connect to other ME machines from any side. You could make a distillation tower with 8 ME fluid output busses and only attach a cable to the bottom one.
I think I know what happened to the backpack. If you go frame by frame at 9:19, the backpack is actually there for 1 frame. I believe that when you clicked the question mark to pull up the recipe, you actually also "clicked" the backpack (which just so happened to be in the same spot as the question mark). Since you clicked it without clicking it, the game removed it from your inventory as if you were picking it up to move it, but did not put it in your cursor so that you could put it back down. Technically speaking, I believe this to be a JEI glitch rather the a GregTech glitch...
I'm having a hard time keeping track of what you're actually doing. Not because you explain it badly, but I hardly played any mods in 1.7.10. That's why I hardly know any machines/mechanics from back then.
No matter how you put it, the relaxed yet focused style is truly relaxing to watch. And I really appreciate how you speak properly and don't scream/"Oh my god, what just happened"/"Now let's take this base to the next level" bullshit talk all the time.
Thanks for your style!
It's gregtech machines, as he mentioned in this episode, he's going from single block processing to multiblocks. Think of it like If thermal and Immersive engineering were the same mod, as you go from the base tier to the Hardened, you could make a hardened multiblock that did the same thing and to upgrade to the next tier all you had to do was upgrade the power import blocks. Not EXACTLY what Gregtech does but close enough to get the point across
Almost nothing from this episode is 1.7 exclusive, except for the GTNH-exclusive blocks that they added which make sense if you know the fundimentals.
AE2 fundimentals haven't changed, so if you've used it in 1.16 nothing here should be that confusing.
To someone who's played modern modpacks, the only part of the entire series that should really feel super unfamiliar is the witchery, thaumcraft, bees, and some specific greg stuff stuff they did. Everything else is ported similarly to modern versions, such that the changes are minimal enough that following along and spotting those differences is easy enough. If you just haven't played modern modded either, then yes, of course things will be less familiar.
The machines themselves are of course gregtech-exclusive, but there's nothing strange about them that differs from other machines in a way that hasn't been explained at some point in the series.
You can configure circuits on stocking input buses clicking on the middle low slot, the one with an overlay of a circuit. If you shift click it, it opens a panel where you can select a circuit number, This also applies to any input bus you find with that icon.
new neurotic goose upload, day enlightened
I love the text you write under your videos.
Ah, full automation. Wonderful.
I can’t wait for the bee breeding episodes where we see Goose bend the seasons of the world to his whim.
Also probably worth mentioning that this little known RUclipsr “ThreeFold” has a setup for turbine redstone that is about… twelve redstone components, including wires? Not including output lines, but it turns the turbines on when power goes below a certain threshold, and back off when above. Basically, curb the spin-up cost for just the cost of some red crystal components, which is thaumcraft, so I can’t imagine that being a problem. On topic, excited to see ichorium armor, what, next episode? Hopefully!
Slight tangent, seeing the modpack-inherent issues makes me rather relieved. I recently finished play-testing my own, and one of its core mods is a buggy mess whose procedurally generated dimensions tank the tps of the server until it auto-restarts because a tick took too long, as well as having issues transporting high-nbt-containing tile entities (read: AE2) into said dimensions and maybe wiping them entirely clean. Given that neither of these are world-corrupting and I am including several warnings in the quest book about it, I feel rather good about the stability of my pack.
Granted I would love to figure out why loading chunks in a specific dimension slowly tanks the tps, but Im happy with what I have
Both ME Interfaces and Molecular Assemblers transfer channels through them by contact same as cables. Your colored cable setup is going to cause a massive loop.
On the other hand, this also means you can make a 2x2xYES box of interfaces and assemblers and run all of them off a single jumbo cable, since only the interfaces require channels.
if you want really fast auto crafting from molecular assemblers, you can build a 'power flower' similar to projectE ones with interfaces interlaced with assemblers. this gives the interfaces access to multiple assemblers multithreading the crafting
The "welcome back" gives me dopamine
With respect to your stack of molecular assemblers: I've always gone with the "christmas tree" for those. If you haven't run across it, it's super handy, because it comes with a list of "make this many of $list" which might be of use for your specific instance. It also comes with a bunch of handy notes about -why- it works in the way it does and how best to make it work faster and better; select from this list in this order, sort of thing. I do highly recommend it, over the standalone wall option.
This video made me nod more than any other video in the last year)
I for one can't believe the sheer power of Gnothing.
(raucous applause that you did the very complicated thing)
12:23 I love the reaction xD
AE2 doesn't try to craft something using a recipe where desired thing is a byproduct. Because that would be quite inconvenient to manage. It will just account for byproducts in the multistep recipes. Example being you recipe needs 500 X and 1000 Y. Making 500 X will also result in 500 Y as byproduct. So the system will only craft additional 500 Y, instead of making a 1000 and having 500 left over.
Hey love the vids!
Small tip: you can really speed up and make building multi blocks less annoying with ae by creating a recipe with a piece of paper named like "LCR" and then making the inputs every block in that structure and putting the named paper as the output. After that just put an interface with that recipe on a chest and cycle the paper back in the ae system with an export bus and a level emitter with a crafting card.
