Cell⁴

Infinite ME Storage Cells for Applied Energistics 2

Cell⁴ is an AE2 addon designed for modpack development. It adds three types of Infinity Cells that can be bound to specific items via NBT or data components, allowing infinite extraction from the ME network. Inserted matching items are silently discarded, consuming no actual storage.

Supported versions: 1.20.1 (Forge), 1.21.1 (NeoForge), 26.1.2 (NeoForge)

Infinity Cell Types

• Infinity Item Cell — bind specific items/fluids
• Infinity Tag Cell — bind all items matching tags and/or from specified mods
• Infinity ModID Cell — bind all items from a mod

Cell Configurator

The Cell Configurator is an in-game tool for editing cell data visually. Right-click while holding it to open the configuration GUI, then place a cell into the slot.

• Editable fields change based on the cell type placed in the slot.
• Inactive fields are shown in gray and cannot be edited.
• Separate multiple values with commas (e.g. minecraft:diamond,minecraft:oak_log).
• In the blacklist field, prefix tags with # (e.g. #minecraft:birch_logs) and mod IDs with @ (e.g. @mekanism).
• Press Tab to cycle between editable fields.
• Press Enter to save changes.
• Click Save to apply changes, Reset to revert, or Clear to erase all fields.

Cell Type Editable Fields Item Cell cell4item, cell4blacklist Tag Cell cell4tag, cell4modid, cell4blacklist ModID Cell cell4modid, cell4blacklist

Preview

The right side of the GUI displays a Preview panel showing the cell's tooltip as it would appear in your inventory. If a custom name is set in the name field, the preview updates in real time with the new name shown in italic style.
