The Autocrafting Monitor displays the status of all active autocrafting tasks.

Tasks

The tasks are displayed in the sidebar. For each task, the state is displayed:

  • Ready - Ready to start.

  • Extracting initial resources - Extracting the resources needed to start the task.

  • Running - The task is running.

  • Returning internal storage - The task was either completed or cancelled, and the task’s internal inventory is returned to the storage network.

Each task is shown as a grid of cells, where each cell represents how a resource is used in the task.

Terminology used in cells:

  • Extracting - The resource is being extracted from the storage network for use in crafting.

  • Stored – The resource is held in the task’s internal inventory, to be used later.

  • Processing – The resource is currently inserted into an external machine.

  • Scheduled – The resource is queued for crafting and will be processed later.

  • Crafting – The resource itself is being crafted.

The Autocrafting Monitor also shows if a resource was not accepted by an external machine or if a Autocrafter is currently locked.

Cancelling tasks

Tasks can be cancelled individually or all at once.

If there is not enough space in the storage network to cancel the autocrafting task, the task will not be cancelled, or will be partially cancelled.

Connection with other storage network devices

The Autocrafting Monitor connects to all adjacent blocks except the one in the direction it is facing.

Colored Autocrafting Monitors connect to any other color.

Redstone mode

The Autocrafting Monitor can be set to operate only when a specific redstone state is met.

  • Ignore – Always active, regardless of redstone.

  • High – Only works when receiving a redstone signal.

  • Low – Only works when no redstone signal is present.

Recoloring

You can recolor the Autocrafting Monitor in 2 ways:

  • While crouching, using a dye on the Autocrafting Monitor

  • Combining the block with a dye as a crafting recipe
