AE2:Crafting Tree in FTB Skies 2

Same as in the All the Mods 10 8.1 guide

AE2:Crafting Tree is included in this pack as version 1.21.1-1.1.1, shipped as the file ae2ct-1.21.1-1.1.1.jar. It has been part of the pack since version 2.25 or earlier, so it isn't a recent addition.^[1]

Unverified The sources I have don't describe what AE2:Crafting Tree actually does, who it's best suited to, or any recipes, configs or items it adds, so I'm not going to guess. There is also no in-jar guidebook to draw on.

Unverified Where the mod fits in the pack's progression is unconfirmed. No quests in this pack involve it, and it does not appear on the ATM Star quest path, so you won't be pushed toward it by the questbook.

This one is a short section, because the pack gives us very little to go on for this mod. There are no quests for it, no in-pack recipes for its items and no config files, so I can't give you a crafting order or a first item to make. I won't guess at one.^[2]

What you will see in the screen

What the mod's own text does tell us is what its screen looks like. It is titled "Crafting Tree" and has a "Show Crafting Tree" option. The tree uses a handful of labels to describe each step: "need", "use", "missing", "stored" and "crafting", each followed by an amount.^[2]

• "Show Missing Only" is a toggle in the screen, so you can cut the tree down to the parts that are missing.^[2]
• "show missing only by default" is a setting that makes that view the starting one.^[2]
• "use compact crafting tree (beta)" is a setting for a more compact layout, and the mod labels it beta.^[2]
• "Screenshot" is a button, and "screenshot show count" is a checkbox that controls whether counts appear in the screenshot.^[2]

Unverified How you open the Crafting Tree screen in this pack, and which items or blocks you need first, could not be confirmed from the available sources.

The material available for AE2:Crafting Tree only covers its client-side settings, so this section is short. Machines, multiblocks, power, fluids and item automation are not covered, so they are left out here.^[3]

Client settings in this pack

The pack ships a client config file for the mod at config/ae2ct-client.toml. Every option in it is set to false in this pack.^[3]

• use_compact_tree switches between a compact and a loose tree layout. True means compact, false means loose. This pack sets it to false, so you get the loose layout.^[3]
• show_missing_only_by_default decides whether the view shows only missing entries by default. This pack sets it to false.^[3]
• screenshot_show_count controls whether the count is shown in a screenshot. This pack sets it to false.^[3]

The mod has a small client-side config in this pack, so there's not much to dig through. Everything lives in config/ae2ct-client.toml, and it only changes how the crafting tree looks for you.^[3]

What the pack sets

• use_compact_tree is false. The file describes true as compact and false as loose, so the pack gives you the loose tree layout.^[3]
• show_missing_only_by_default is false. The tree does not start out limited to missing items.^[3]
• screenshot_show_count is false. This controls whether the count is shown in a screenshot, so it is off here.^[3]
