Blood Magic full slate automation with AE2?

[DinckelMan]

Is there a way to automate slate production completely with help of AE2 and maybe the Steve's factory?
I cant find a way to do this with more than 1 slate, without changing the connections in the Factory Manager constantly.

level emitters and redstone conditions in SFM

this is just of the top of my head but if you want to auto craft them you can use a interface and maybe have it right next to the altar or a enderio cable conecting the two. To pull it out if you can just put the interface next to it it should automaticly pull out (i think).

I did what you're thinking about, but i cant make it pull the slate i want, it pulls the first one it sees

Update: Never mind. I overcomplicated everything. Just put an interface right to the altar and it works.
Update2: I'm dumb, the interface does not take the slate back

a redstone emitter and receiver to keep track of what you are crafting

level 1 for blank slate, level 2 for reinforced, etc.

and use a chest as a target for the interface and put the result into the interface, then put the step by step recipes in the interface. if a stone lands in the chest and emitter at 0 then put the emitter to 1 and put it in the altar when blank slate lands in the chest then put emitter to 2 and put it in the altar etc.

if the emitter matches what the result should be then pull out of the altar push into the interface and set emitter to 0.

I'd use a combination of SFM and AE2
I currently already have SFM to craft a stack of each slate and output them in a chest, if I were to throw a storage bus onto that chest I can use the slates and have SFM refill the slates if they're used up

if you don't know how to do this in SFM (let's hope I can properly explain this) I use a condition to check if there's 64 slates of a certain type in the output chest, if false select the input chest and place 1 stone in the altar. after that have another condition check if the slate you want is in the altar, if true input from the altar and output into the output chest.

use a flow control with 5 outputs to create a chain for every slate type. you can even combine each chain in a group to clean up the frontpage of the controller

if you really want to get fancy, you could even have another command set up that checks if there's 64 of each slate in the output, if true take an orb from the input chest and place it into the altar, it false take the orb from the altar and place it into the input chest. this way if you're not crafting slates you can keep refilling your LP network

Thats an interesting idea. I'll set it up next time i play, but with less slates pre-made :3
Some craft on demand system would be the best still

you can use a ae interface and have it pule stone out as u requst the creation of it

craft on demand is still possible, you just need a backlog of slates in a chest that gets automatically refilled by SFM if the slates go below a certain number
it's probably alot faster this way then actually having the slate get crafted on the spot

I think he meant that if you order 5 stacks of sacrifice runes then the required slates will also be ordered instead of forcing you to do it in smaller batches (or setting the limit higher for a while)
