The '''Configurator''' is [[Mekanism]]'s configuration tool for its machines, it comes with several different modes. The modes range from Mousing-Over a Mekanism machine to display the color of the side you are looking at (This is useful if you are trying to figure out the Configuration of a Mekanism Machine). The other modes affect Cables, Pipes, and Tubes of Mekanism by allowing all of them to be Redstone sensitive or not. In addition all of these can be further modified with controlling the Input or Output of a device it is attached to. To activate Redstone sensitive simply right click the part. To change the Input or Output of the part, Shift-Click the end of the part that it is attached to the machine. Finally Configuration mode allows a wrench mode which is basically a wrench version for Mekanism but electrically charged.

The Configurator is Mekanism's configuration tool for its machines.


Usage

It comes with several different modes that you can switch between by Crouching and then pressing the item Mode Change Key (Default: M)

Modes

Configurate

Mousing over a Mekanism machine or factory will show the color for that side, using the the Configuration Color Scheme. Right clicking will print a message announcing both the color and input/output mode. Shift + Right Clicking will cycle through the valid colors for the given sub-mode:


Additionally, you can interact with any of the cables, pipes, transporters, or tubes to set their connection type between machines/inventory and their redstone sensitivity. Right clicking on the center of the cable/pipe/transporter/tube will toggle sensitivity off/on (default is on). Shift + Right clicking on a segment between the center of the cable/etc. and machine will cycle between:

  • Normal
  • Pull - try to take items, etc. from the machine
  • Push - try to put items, etc., into the machine, or
  • None - no connection. Will not try to push or pull items from the machine.


Empty

Shift + Right Clicking on the machine while in this mode will eject any and all items currently in the machine in random directions. It will not dump fluids or gasses.

Rotate

Right clicking on a face will have that set as "forward" while Shift + Right clicking will have that set as "back" The Energy Cube can have its top and bottom faces designated as "forward."

Wrench

Behaves like a wrench from most other mods. Right click to rotate the machine clockwise on the ground, Shift + Right click to have the machine instantly pried loose as an item (works on cables and pipes, too!)

Configuration Color Scheme

  • Grey is no connection (neither in nor out).
  • Dark Red is input (items, gasses).
  • Dark Blue is output (items, gasses).
  • Green is for Energy input (items, cable).
    • Note: Energy items can also be pulled from a side colored Green if the transporter on that side is configured to pull. However, currently this means that the item will be pulled out from the energy slot whether or not it transferred any energy to the machine.
  • Purple is Infusion item input (for the Metallurgic Infuser)
  • Yellow is for fluids (for the Pressurized Reaction Chamber)
