Network Center

Network Center Render

The Network Center scans your connected DE network and shows a full monitoring summary in real time.

It provides live visibility into generation, consumption, storage, and overall network health.

Practical notes​

  • Use the panel to compare supply, demand, and stored energy.
  • Keep some DE available so scan cycles do not stop.
  • Very large networks may be truncated by the safety limit.

Total ingredients

  • Glass (minecraft:glass) ×2
  • Comparator (minecraft:comparator) ×1
  • Machine Case (utilitycraft:machine_case) ×2
  • Steel Ingot (utilitycraft:steel_ingot) ×1
  • Titanium Plate (utilitycraft:titanium_plate) ×2
  • Ultimate Chip (utilitycraft:ultimate_chip) ×1

How It Works​

  1. Place and connect the machine to your energy grid.
  2. Keep DE available for periodic scanning.
  3. Open the interface to inspect generation, consumption, and network status.

Reading the display​

  • The display separates generation, consumption, storage, and overall status.
  • Use it to compare current production against demand and free capacity.

Panel Data​

  • Machine and generator counts
  • Battery and cable counts
  • Stored energy, total capacity, and free space
  • Net energy flow and overall status (Stable, Charging, Draining, Deficit, Buffer Full)

Performance Notes​

  • The scanner consumes energy continuously while active.
  • Very large networks can trigger safety truncation warnings.
