Productive Bees Genesis

An addon for Productive Bees and Mekanism that adds the Myriad Creations Bee (rainbow-gradient, honeycombs randomly transform into other resource bees' honeycombs), the MEK Centrifuge, and the MEK Apiary — machines that preserve Mekanism's native processing logic, GUI style, side configuration, and upgrade system, while deeply integrating Applied Energistics 2 for output pushback, honeycomb pulling, and network-powered energy. The machines also implement Resource Bees' upgrade components via Mekanism's upgrade installation system, offering an efficient new way to raise bees and process honeycombs.

About

Productive Bees Genesis is a NeoForge addon that bridges Productive Bees and Mekanism. It provides:

Myriad Creations Bee — a special bee whose honeycomb randomly produces honeycombs from other resource bees via a configurable filter.
MEK Centrifuge — a Mekanism-style centrifuge that processes Productive Bees honeycombs and honeycomb blocks, and also supports Energized Smelter recipes.
MEK Apiary — an electrified apiary with built-in simulation, housing multiple bees working simultaneously. Its internal feeder slots hold various flowers bees need for pollination without consuming them.
Deep AE2 integration — both centrifuges and apiaries can join AE network connections, supporting AE default channel transmission. Outputs can be pushed directly into the ME network, with AE output toggles for items and fluids in the Mekanism config screen. Supports using FE energy stored in the linked ME network, while also retaining AE network native energy. Energy priority is configurable. The centrifuge can also pull honeycombs from the linked ME network for processing, with pulling behavior configurable.
Preserves Mekanism's native GUI, side configuration, auto-ejection config, upgrade buttons, safety system, redstone control, and config-tool interaction.
Jade support for displaying machine AE online status, internal items, fluids, energy, etc.
Fully configurable Myriad Creations Bee honeycomb conversion filter UI — supports blacklist/whitelist, search, sort, drag-and-drop, clipboard import/export.
KubeJS support for dynamic bee recipe registration at runtime.

For the full list of changes, see the CHANGELOG.

MEK Centrifuge

An industrialized Mekanism-style centrifuge that extends Mekanism's native electric machine base class, fully preserving its GUI style, side configuration, upgrade system, safety interlocks, and redstone control, while deeply optimizing the honeycomb and honeycomb block processing pipeline.

Core Capabilities

Multi-recipe support: Processes Productive Bees honeycombs and honeycomb blocks, and also supports Energized Smelter recipes.
Factory parallel processing: Base variant processes a single recipe; factory variants provide multi-process parallel processing (2–18 processes) scaling with tier.
Output safety: Identical output stacks are auto-merged; processing pauses when output slots are full to avoid wasting energy.
Ejection optimization: All variants use a configurable four-state ejection policy (active/idle/blocked/busy) with fine-grained controls like skip-unchanged-ticks, max-speed mode, and busy cooldown.
Fluid auto-eject: Default 16384 mB/tick, overriding Mekanism's native 1024 mB/tick.
Multi-fluid tank mode: Configurable dynamic slot allocation per fluid type, preventing different honey types from mixing.
AE2 integration: Acts as an AE2 grid node — direct output push, honeycomb pulling, and ME-network energy input (5-tier priority).
Jade tooltip: Shows AE2 network status, internal items/fluids/energy, etc.

Centrifuge Tiers (17 factory tiers + 1 base variant)

Tier family	Tier names	Parallel processes	Input slots	Output slots
Base	MEK Centrifuge	1	1	3
Mekanism (4 tiers)	Basic / Advanced / Elite / Ultimate	3 / 5 / 7 / 9	3 / 5 / 7 / 9	9 / 15 / 21 / 27
Mekanism Extras (4 tiers)	Absolute / Supreme / Cosmic / Infinite	11 / 13 / 15 / 17	11 / 13 / 15 / 17	33 / 39 / 45 / 51
Evolved Mekanism (5 tiers)	Overclocked / Quantum / Dense / Multiversal / Creative	11 / 13 / 15 / 17 / 19	11 / 13 / 15 / 17 / 19	33 / 39 / 45 / 51 / 57
Evolved Mekanism Extras (4 tiers)	Absolute Overclocked / Supreme Quantum / Cosmic Dense / Infinite Multiversal	12 / 14 / 16 / 18	12 / 14 / 16 / 18	36 / 42 / 48 / 54

MEK Expansion Mod Support

Covers four Mekanism-family addon mods, with factory tiers mapped one-to-one:

Mekanism: Basic / Advanced / Elite / Ultimate
Mekanism Extras: Absolute / Supreme / Cosmic / Infinite
Evolved Mekanism: Overclocked / Quantum / Dense / Multiversal / Creative
Evolved Mekanism Extras: Absolute Overclocked / Supreme Quantum / Cosmic Dense / Infinite Multiversal

Upgrade Support

The centrifuge supports three independent upgrade systems that can coexist:

Mekanism native upgrades: Speed (SPEED), Energy (ENERGY), Muffling (MUFFLING)
Mekanism Extras upgrades: Stack (STACK, 2^N parallel), Creative (CREATIVE, infinite energy) — only when MEKExtras is installed
Mekanism Empowered upgrades: Empowered Speed, Empowered Energy, IO Capacity, Auto Inserter, Fast Item Insert, Fast Item Eject — only when MekanismEmpowered is installed
PB Upgrade System: see PB Upgrade System section

MEK Apiary

An electrified bee production system built on the Mekanism universal machine framework. By extending Mekanism's electric machine base class, the apiary fully reuses Mekanism's energy storage, side configuration, upgrade cards, safety interlocks, and GUI framework — migrating Productive Bees' vanilla hive logic into a MEK industrialized pipeline.

Apiary Tiers (17 factory tiers + 1 base variant)

Tier family	Tier names	Bee slots	Output slots	Fluid tank capacity
Base	MEK Apiary	3	9	256,000 mB
Mekanism (4 tiers)	Basic / Advanced / Elite / Ultimate	5–20	9–18	256K–1024K mB
Mekanism Extras (4 tiers)	Absolute / Supreme / Cosmic / Infinite	26–42	21–30	1280K–2048K mB
Evolved Mekanism (5 tiers)	Overclocked / Quantum / Dense / Multiversal / Creative	26–45	21–33	1280K–2304K mB
Evolved Mekanism Extras (4 tiers)	Absolute Overclocked / Supreme Quantum / Cosmic Dense / Infinite Multiversal	45–60	33–42	2304K–3072K mB

Core Features

Slot layout: bee slots / output slots / cage slots (bidirectional transfer) / energy slot / honey fluid tank / PB upgrade slots.
Feeder system: dedicated window managing flower items. Base variant uses a fixed 3×3 = 9-slot grid; factory variants use a dynamic layout scaling with bee slot count.
PB upgrade system: 9 self-developed upgrade cards applicable to both centrifuge and apiary — see PB Upgrade System section.
AE2 integration: outputs (items / fluids / energy) push into the ME network; AppliedFlux priority switching supported.
Direct ejection: when a centrifuge is adjacent to the apiary, the apiary bypasses the MEK Ejector throttling and pushes honeycombs straight into the centrifuge's input slot — see Direct Centrifuge Connection.
Jade tooltip: shows bee count, production progress, and AE2 network status.
GUI tabs: Sorting / Feeder / PB Upgrades / Multi-fluid tank — four customizable tabs with persisted window positions.

Direct Centrifuge Connection

The apiary and the centrifuge form an industrialized "produce → process" pipeline:

Bees produce honeycombs according to PB recipes; honey is injected into the apiary's fluid tank.
When an apiary's adjacent block is a centrifuge, the apiary bypasses the MEK Ejector throttling and transfers honeycombs directly into the centrifuge's input slot.
The centrifuge processes the honeycombs and outputs the bee products.

This short-circuit eliminates the throughput bottleneck introduced by the MEK Ejector's per-tick limits and busy/block cooldowns, allowing full-rate industrial production when machines are placed back-to-back.

PB Upgrade System

The mod's self-developed PB Upgrade System is independent from Mekanism's native upgrade system. It uses Mekanism's upgrade card installation mechanism, but all effect calculations are handled by this mod. The system applies to both the MEK Centrifuge (6 types) and the MEK Apiary (all 9 types), and upgrades can coexist.

Upgrade Types

Upgrade type	Identifier	Effect	Default limit	Applies to
Productivity α	PRODUCTIVITY	Output multiplier +1.2× (per card)	8	Centrifuge + Apiary
Productivity β	PRODUCTIVITY_2	Output multiplier +1.5× (per card)	8	Centrifuge + Apiary
Productivity γ	PRODUCTIVITY_3	Output multiplier +2.0× (per card)	8	Centrifuge + Apiary
Productivity Ω	PRODUCTIVITY_4	Output multiplier +2.6× (per card)	8	Centrifuge + Apiary
Time I	TIME	Processing time reduction (1× weight per card)	8	Centrifuge + Apiary
Time II	TIME_2	Processing time reduction (2× weight per card)	8	Centrifuge + Apiary
Gene Sampler	GENE_SAMPLER	Gene sampling upgrade	4	Apiary only
Honeycomb Block	BLOCK	Honeycomb block processing upgrade	1	Apiary only
Simulation	SIMULATION	Simulation upgrade	8	Apiary only

Effect Calculation

Unlike Productive Bees' native additive model, this mod's PB upgrades use a weighted additive model — more cards mean stronger effects:

Productivity upgrades (shared by centrifuge and apiary):

Total output multiplier = 1 + Σ(factor × count), where factors are 1.2 / 1.5 / 2.0 / 2.6
Example: 4× Productivity α + 2× Productivity γ = 1 + (1.2×4 + 2.0×2) = 1 + 8.8 = 9.8× output
The apiary applies an extra 1.22 compensation factor (to balance output pacing between apiary and centrifuge); the centrifuge has no compensation factor

Time upgrades (shared by centrifuge and apiary):

Time multiplier = 1 / (1 + 0.15 × (Time I count + Time II count × 2))
Time II contributes 2× weight per card, making it stronger
Example: 2× Time I + 1× Time II = 1 / (1 + 0.15 × (2 + 1×2)) = 1 / 1.6 = 0.625, i.e. processing time reduced to 62.5%

Per-Type Install Limits

Different upgrade types have different default install limits; all limits are adjustable in the server config:

Productivity / Time upgrades: default 8 cards (shared by centrifuge and apiary, coexist, configurable)
Simulation upgrade: default 8 cards (apiary only)
Gene Sampler upgrade: default 4 cards (apiary only)
Honeycomb Block upgrade: fixed 1 card (apiary only)

Relationship with Mekanism Native Upgrades

The PB Upgrade System is fully independent from Mekanism native upgrades (SPEED / ENERGY / MUFFLING) and can be installed simultaneously:

Mekanism native upgrades: effects handled by Mekanism itself (speed boost, energy capacity, muffling)
PB Upgrade System: effects handled by this mod (output multiplier, processing time, gene sampling, etc.)
The two systems do not interfere; players can freely combine them

AE2 Integration

Both centrifuges and apiaries can act as AE2 grid nodes connecting to the ME network:

Connect directly with AE2 smart cables and adjacent machines.
Auto-discovered by addon-mod cables (ExtendedAE, AdvancedAE, ae2cs, ae2lt, Glodium, AppliedFlux).
Direct ME output: push output slot items into the ME network, bypassing external logistics. Toggleable in the Mekanism config screen.
ME energy input: drain FE stored in the ME network to power the machine. Supports 5-tier energy priority:
1. Local FE cache
2. External direct supply (Mekanism config component + energy slot)
3. ME network stored FE (AppliedFlux)
4. Other energy (handled by Mekanism parent)
5. AE2 native network energy (converted to FE)
Honeycomb pulling (centrifuge only): the centrifuge can actively pull honeycombs from the connected ME network for processing, with pulling behavior configurable.
Jade tooltip: Shows AE2 network status (Offline / Booting / Missing Channel / Online).
Node lifecycle is decoupled from the output toggle — closing output push does not disconnect the machine, allowing ME energy input to continue.

Bee Filter UI

In-game blacklist/whitelist editor with search, sort, and collapse.
Drag-and-drop reorder, clipboard import/export (JSON array).
Visual distinction between added and unadded bees.
Numeric indices, dynamic product info for special bees.
Sort mode and collapse state persist across sessions.

KubeJS Integration

The mod ships KubeJS script hooks for dynamic bee recipe registration at runtime, eliminating the need for static datapack authoring during pack development.

Listen to the MyriadBeeEvents.REGISTER event from server scripts (server_scripts).
Exposed helpers on the event object:
- addBreeding(...) — register a breeding combination (parent1 + parent2 → offspring).
- addFishing(...) — register a fishing acquisition (biome list or tag + chance).
- addConversion(...) — register a bee conversion (item + source bee → target bee).
- addSpawning(...) — register a nest spawning rule (nest type + biome tag).
- addCentrifuge(...) — register a centrifuge recipe (optional custom fluid + processing time).
- addBeeProduce(...) — register an advanced beehive production output.
- addMekData(...) — register a Mekanism mek_data shaped crafting recipe.
Recipes registered through KubeJS are injected into the vanilla RecipeManager JSON map during the beforeRecipeLoading phase and coexist with datapack recipes; they are picked up by the in-game recipe caches and the JEI viewer.

Configuration

The mod ships a trilingual configuration system (English / Chinese / auto-detect) accessible through the in-game Mods → Config screen. Configuration is split into three files:

File	Scope	Highlights
Client config	Client	Bee filter UI, port color visualization, rainbow effects, custom window positions
Common config	Common	Myriad Creations Bee attributes (appearance, pollination, breeding, environment, acquisition, produce, advanced beehive)
Server config	Server	Bee type filtering, MEK centrifuge parameters, MEK apiary parameters

Client Configuration

Client config manages UI display and visual effects:

Bee Filter UI: display options, collapse state, sort mode.
Port color visualization: machine side config port colors.
Rainbow effects: Myriad Creations Bee rainbow gradient, particle effects, glow toggle.
Custom window positions: persisted positions for PB upgrade, AE input config, feeder windows; can be pinned independently of the main UI.

Common Configuration

Common config manages Myriad Creations Bee core attributes, grouped into:

Appearance: rainbow gradient cycle, particle effects (toggle, count), glow (toggle, color).
Pollination: pollination chance, flower range.
Breeding: breeding parents config, breeding toggle.
Environment: active biomes, time range.
Acquisition: fishing (toggle, chance, biomes), breeding, nest spawning (nest type, biomes), bee conversion (source bee, conversion item, chance).
Produce: Myriad Creations honeycomb output config, honeycomb block conversion multiplier.
Advanced beehive: simulation cooldown, NBT save interval, and other performance tuning.

Server Configuration

Server config is the mod's core, managing machine behavior, split into two main modules:

MEK Centrifuge Configuration

Centrifuge config is grouped by function, with 21 options total:

Basic parameters:

Energy per tick: energy cost per processing slot per tick (FE).
Processing time: base processing time per operation (tick).
Fluid tank capacity: base fluid tank capacity (mB); factory variants scale with parallelism.
Fluid ejection rate: fluid ejection rate per tick for factory centrifuges (mB), range 1-10240, default 256.
Honeycomb block multiplier: output multiplier when centrifuging honeycomb blocks.
Multi-fluid tank mode: dynamically allocates independent slots per fluid type when enabled.

Ejection policy:

Eject delay: output slot auto-eject delay (tick), recommended 2 (0.1s).
Active eject delay: eject delay when output slot still has items, default 1 (0.05s).
Skip eject when output unchanged: reduces CPU overhead under high-speed acceleration.
Skip ticks when unchanged: consecutive ticks to skip when output unchanged, default 1.
Max speed ejection mode: skips throttling logic, keeps only blocked cooldown; requires sufficient target container space.
Min eject interval: minimum interval between calls when output continuously changes, default 0 (disabled).
Busy eject threshold: consecutive times output total fails to decrease before entering long cooldown, default 5.
Busy eject cooldown: ticks to skip when busy but not blocked, default 40 (2s).
Max ejects per tick: max eject calls per tick, default 64.
Blocked eject threshold: consecutive times no item is ejected before entering cooldown.
Blocked eject cooldown: ticks to skip during blocked cooldown, 0 to disable.

IO limit:

Max extract per tick: max items external pipes/AE2 can extract per tick, 0 for unlimited.

AE2 integration (only registered when AE2 is loaded):

Enable AE2 direct output: push output slot items to AE2 network, default on.
Enable AE2 fluid output: push honey fluid to AE2 network, default on.
Enable AE energy input: extract FE from ME network into local energy container, default on.
Enable AE2 input pulling: centrifuge actively pulls input items from ME network.
Max items per pull: 1-16384; too high may increase CPU overhead.
Pull trigger interval: game ticks; higher values reduce CPU overhead but slow response.
AE2 input min pages: AE2 input filter window minimum pages (1-16).
AE energy priority: prefer AppliedFlux or AE2 native energy.

Output slot stack multiplier: per-tier output slot stack multiplier across 17 factory tiers, default 1× to 4096×.

Input slot stack multiplier: honeycomb processing multiplier; input slot default is 1/4 of output slot.

PB upgrade limits: max install count for productivity, time, gene sampling, honeycomb block upgrades.

ME upgrade limits: max stack upgrade count, 2^N parallel, only applies to this mod's centrifuge factories.

Fluid tank multiplier: per-tier fluid tank capacity multiplier.

Apiary config mirrors the centrifuge structure and adds apiary-specific tuning:

Basic parameters:

Apiary energy per tick: energy cost per processing slot per tick (FE), default 50.
Apiary processing time: base processing time (tick), default 1200.
Apiary fluid tank capacity: base variant fluid tank capacity (mB), default 256,000; factory variants are hardcoded per tier.

Ejection policy: mirrors the centrifuge's ejection policy, with "apiary" prefix.

Output slot stack multiplier: per-tier output slot stack multiplier across 17 factory tiers:
