Mekanism

Mekanism is a mod by aidancbrady and unpariedbracket, with contributions from Calclavia, micdoodle8, and pixlepix. It is centered around a tiered system of technological advancement. Mekanism has four tiers of its machines and crafting components: Basic, Advanced, Elite, and Ultimate. All of these tiers are used in the various core features, such as Factories, which are higher-capacity versions of the basic machines, and Energy Cubes, used to store energy. Mekanism uses its own energy system of Joules, but is compatible with (and can be configured to use) Redstone Flux, Minecraft Joules, and Energy Units. Furthermore, Mekanism provides 4 tiers of ore-processing systems to produces up to 5 ingots out of 1 ore (see Mekanism Ore-Processing).
