What is Mekanistic Routers?
Same as in the All the Mons 1.3.0 guide
Mekanistic Routers is part of this pack, which ships version 1.2.0 of the mod (the file is mekanisticrouters-1.2.0.jar).[1]
It isn't a new addition either. The pack's mod list shows it was first included in 0.4.0-beta or earlier, so it has been around since the early betas.[1]
That is all the sources here confirm about the mod, so this overview stays short. I won't describe its features, recipes or config options until the pack's own files show them.[1]
How do you get started with Mekanistic Routers?
4 parts
Same as in the All the Mons 1.3.0 guide
This mod adds chemical handling to Modular Routers. The Mk1 module and the Chemical Transfer Upgrade are crafted from a Blank Module or Blank Upgrade from that mod, so make those first. The Mk2 and the Refill Module then build on the Mk1. Here is the order I'd go in.[2]
Step one: Chemical Module Mk1
Start with Chemical Module Mk1. It transfers chemicals into or out of the router, to or from an adjacent block in the module's direction.[3]
Crafting Shaped
| Empty slot | any osmium ingot | Empty slot |
| any cheap glass blocks | any cheap glass blocks | |
| Empty slot | any osmium ingot | Empty slot |
Recipe id: mekanisticrouters:chemical_module_mk1
Step two: Chemical Transfer Upgrade
Next, make a Chemical Transfer Upgrade. It increases how much fluid a router can transfer in each direction. This matters because the module's Max Transfer setting is only a limit, not a target. The real rate is still limited by the number of these upgrades in the router and by the external tank's own transfer rate.[3]

Step three: Chemical Module Mk2
When you outgrow the Mk1, move up to Chemical Module Mk2. It transfers to or from any nearby block rather than just the adjacent one, and it can transfer to and from tanks. Like the Mk1, it needs a chemical container item in the router's buffer. You craft it from a Mk1.[2][3]
If you are upgrading several modules, the pack also has a batch recipe that turns 4 Mk1 modules into 4 Mk2 modules in one craft.[2]

Recipe id: mekanisticrouters:chemical_module_mk2_x4
Step four: Chemical Refill Module
Last is the Chemical Refill Module. It wirelessly refills chemical container items in a player's inventory, such as Jetpacks. In its settings you pick which section of your inventory it works on, and the filter decides which items can receive chemicals. It is crafted from a Mk2, so it comes after the steps above.[2][3]

How does Mekanistic Routers work?
5 parts
Same as in the All the Mons 1.3.0 guide
Mekanistic Routers adds chemical handling to routers through modules and one upgrade. This section covers what each piece does and how its settings behave, based on the mod's own item descriptions and screen text, plus the recipes in this pack.[2][3]
Chemical modules
Chemical Module Mk1 moves chemicals into or out of the router, to or from an adjacent block in the module's direction. Its description says the router's buffer must hold a chemical container item for this to work.[3]
Chemical Module Mk2 does the same job, but with any nearby block instead of only the adjacent one in its direction. It needs a chemical container item in the router's buffer too, and it can transfer to and from tanks.[3]
Module settings
The Transfer Direction setting decides whether the router pushes chemical out to the tank or pulls chemical from the tank.[3]
The Max Transfer setting is the most chemical the router will attempt to move in one operation. Treat it as a limit, not a target. The real rate is still capped by the number of Chemical Transfer Upgrade in the router, and by the transfer rate of the external tank if there is one.[3]
The tooltip for this setting gives the value in mB per operation. It adds that the router's overall transfer rate (Chemical Transfer and Speed Upgrades) still applies. Modules also show a Chemical Rate line, which tells you the most they will move per operation.[3]
Chemical Transfer Upgrade
Chemical Transfer Upgrade increases the amount of fluid a router can transfer, in each direction, by a set number of mB per tick. The per-upgrade amount is shown on the item's tooltip.[3]
Chemical Refill Module
Chemical Refill Module wirelessly refills chemical container items in a player's inventory, such as Jetpacks.[3]
Its settings let you choose which section of the player inventory it interacts with. A filter controls which items can receive chemicals from the module.[3]
Crafting
These are the recipes this pack uses for the mod's items. Start with the Mk1 module.[2]
Crafting Shaped
| Empty slot | any osmium ingot | Empty slot |
| any cheap glass blocks | any cheap glass blocks | |
| Empty slot | any osmium ingot | Empty slot |
Recipe id: mekanisticrouters:chemical_module_mk1
The Mk2 module is an upgrade of the Mk1. There is also a batch recipe that converts several Mk1 modules at once.[2]
Crafting Shapeless
Recipe id: mekanisticrouters:chemical_module_mk2_x4
Batch version: four Mk1 modules become four Mk2 modules.
The Refill Module is built from a Mk2 module, so you need to make a Mk2 first.[2]

The transfer upgrade has its own recipe.[2]

How do you progress through Mekanistic Routers?
4 parts
Same as in the All the Mods 10 8.1 guide
Mekanistic Routers doesn't have tiers in the usual modded sense. Here it is a short line of crafting steps, and each step builds on the item before it. In this pack the module line runs from Chemical Module Mk1 up to Chemical Module Mk2 and Chemical Refill Module. The Chemical Transfer Upgrade sits beside that line as a separate item.[4]
Unverified The sources I have show no pack quests that cover this mod, so nothing in the quest book tells you when to unlock these items. The order below follows the recipes only.
Step 1: Chemical Module Mk1
The Chemical Module Mk1 is the entry point, and everything else in the module line starts from it. It's a shaped crafting recipe, and the in-pack version is below.[4]
Crafting Shaped
| Empty slot | any osmium ingot | Empty slot |
| any cheap glass blocks | any cheap glass blocks | |
| Empty slot | any osmium ingot | Empty slot |
Recipe id: mekanisticrouters:chemical_module_mk1
Step 2: Chemical Module Mk2
You make the Chemical Module Mk2 by upgrading a Mk1 module in a shapeless recipe, so the layout doesn't matter. It's a cheap step, because it only needs the Mk1 plus one extra item.[4]
The pack also has a second Mk2 recipe, listed as chemical_module_mk2_x4. It shows the same inputs and the same Mk2 result as the first one.[4]
Crafting Shapeless
Recipe id: mekanisticrouters:chemical_module_mk2_x4
Last step: Chemical Refill Module
The Chemical Refill Module is the top of the module line. It's a shaped recipe that consumes a Mk2 module, so you can't skip the earlier steps.[4]
Crafting Shaped
Recipe id: mekanisticrouters:chemical_refill_module
The side path: Chemical Transfer Upgrade
The Chemical Transfer Upgrade doesn't depend on any of the modules above. It has its own shaped recipe, so you can make it at any point.[4]

| Empty slot | any osmium ingot | Empty slot |
| any cheap glass blocks | any cheap glass blocks | |

How does Mekanistic Routers work with other mods?
2 parts
Same as in the All the Mods 10 8.1 guide
Mekanistic Routers links up with other mods through its crafting recipes. Both of them start from an item in the Modular Routers family and turn it into a chemical version.[4]
Chemical Module Mk1
Chemical Module Mk1 is crafted from a Blank Module. The other ingredients are matched by common tags rather than specific items: any cheap glass block and any osmium ingot. Anything carrying those tags works.[4]
Crafting Shaped
| Empty slot | any osmium ingot | Empty slot |
| any cheap glass blocks | any cheap glass blocks | |
| Empty slot | any osmium ingot | Empty slot |
Recipe id: mekanisticrouters:chemical_module_mk1
Chemical Transfer Upgrade
Chemical Transfer Upgrade follows the same pattern, but it starts from a Blank Upgrade instead of a blank module. It uses the same tag-based glass and osmium ingredients.[4]
Crafting Shaped
| Empty slot | any osmium ingot | Empty slot |
| any cheap glass blocks | any cheap glass blocks | |
