Quantum Matter Fabricator
The Quantum Matter Fabricator (QMF) is the multiblock evolution of the DMA. It is built for bulk matter processing, parallel production and AE2 autocrafting integration.
Core Behavior
- Up to 27 parallel threads in standard mode
- 9 parallel threads while Safe Mode is enabled
- Accepts both QMF-native recipes and DMA recipes
- Pulls ingredients from the ME network automatically
- Pushes outputs back into ME storage automatically
- Supports AE2 automation through the Quantum Pattern Hatch
Quantum Pattern Hatch
The Quantum Pattern Hatch is the multiblock-facing pattern provider for this machine family.
- Stores up to 72 encoded patterns
- Links itself to the controller when the structure assembles
- Exposes the controller to AE2 as a crafting machine
- Lets AE2 dispatch work directly into the multiblock threads
Parallel Model
Each free thread can run one recipe copy.
- A pushed AE2 pattern reserves one free thread
- Idle threads can still auto-start valid work from the ME network
- Items, fluids and AE are all pulled directly from the network
Tier Rules
- Recipes can require MK1, MK2 or MK3
- Higher machine tiers can run lower-tier recipes faster and cheaper
- Safe Mode trades throughput for thermal stability
