ROTATION → SEALED → PRECISION → CALCULATION → INDUCTIVE → ARCANE → CHEMICAL → CONTAINMENT → SINGULARITY → SOVEREIGN.
The repaired October 4 production ZIP is the current reference. Early pipes, Spout and Empty Tubes precede Sealed; custom IDs are unique; and starter chemistry uses earlier mechanisms. All ten main routes pass the static dependency model. Read the production review for the remaining Minecraft and sustained-factory tests.
Create · build the backbone
Farm Kelp and trees, generate Cobblestone, and process Gravel, Sand and Clay. Use the first Iron and Andesite to craft Makeshift Rotation Mechanisms, then the first Rotation Machine. Build power, a Press, Mixer and Deployer using their complete recipes. Earlier factories keep supplying later materials.
Sealed production introduces Copper Sheets, Empty Tubes, Rubber and water filling. Precision keeps Brass, Electron Tubes and Gold, with Saw and Press operations between applications. The visual workshop shows each operation and every repeated pass.
Tier 4 · Calculation and AE2
Grow Certus through its water-spout loop. Make Silicon through Rough Sand and Siliceous Compound; print circuits with retained AE2 presses, then assemble processors with a retained Boot Medium. Calculation production uses all three processors and Liquid XP. AE2 starts at tier 4; the intended renewable Diamond recipe uses superheated Create compacting.
Tiers 5–7 · Inductive, Arcane and chemistry
Tier 5 adds Chromatic production and starter Mekanism. Its basic-circuit bootstrap applies Redstone and an Electron Tube to Osmium before an Infuser is needed. A Steel Casing enables renewable Osmium, Tin, Lead, Uranium and Fluorite generator modes after bootstrap materials and stage access.
Tier 6 combines Create tube/plate/XP operations with Ars apparatus finishing. Ars Imbuement gives a repeatable Arcane Essence conversion. Tier 7 adds chemical refinement and a retained Nether Star Focus. Source, native chemicals and real FE power remain working inputs.
Tiers 8–10 · containment and quantum production
Renewable Suspicious Rock feeds aquatic shell processing, while a retained Dragon Head enables the authored Bulk Ending routes. The SPS/Antimatter chain needs HDPE before the first Singularity mechanism. The repaired PRC, Separator and Rotary constructors use Inductive; Chemical Infuser and Osmium Compressor use Arcane. These earlier stations supply the Echo/Timeless, Blue Tube and Stargaze lines.
Tier 10 joins the upstream network into Refined Quartz, Tech Tubes, Radiant Obsidian, Circuit Scrap and Matter Plastic. The Sovereign sequence uses three passes and retains its focus. The static mechanism route passes; full automation still requires the remaining runtime and factory tests.
Storage that stays useful
Sophisticated Storage and Backpacks support collection, filtering and upgrades. Preserve stored components using the actual preserving recipe. Larger AE2 cells and Applied Mekanistics chemical storage belong to the later network; use the exact recipe and stage in the instance.
