Cable Tiers Mod FAQ

Craft a basic Importer or Exporter using the standard recipes shown in the mod's crafting guide, then place it adjacent to a storage block and a Refined Storage network cable to begin transferring items. You can upgrade to higher tiers (Elite, Ultra, Mega, Creative) as you gather more resources for faster transfer speeds and additional filter slots.

Each tier increases transfer speed and filter slot count: Elite offers 2x speed with 9 extra slots, Ultra provides 5x speed with 27 slots and an integrated stack upgrade, Mega gives 8x speed with 45 slots and stack upgrade, and Creative reaches 15,000x speed with 45 slots and stack upgrade. Choose based on your performance needs and available resources.

Place an Importer next to your item source (chest, furnace, etc.) and connect it to your Refined Storage network with cable. Configure the filter slots to specify which items to pull, and adjust the transfer rate using the tier you've crafted. The Importer will continuously move matching items into your storage network.

Yes—the Constructor places blocks from your storage network into the world when supplied with power and the correct block type. Higher tiers work faster and more efficiently, making them ideal for large-scale building automation or resource processing chains.

The Requester System lets you request specific items from your storage network to be delivered automatically, streamlining logistics by eliminating manual retrieval. It integrates with the mod's Importers and Exporters to create a smooth automated supply chain.

Connect an upgraded Disk Interface or Autocrafter to your Refined Storage network, set up a Requester to pull in crafting ingredients, and configure the Constructor or Exporter to handle output. Higher tiers process recipes faster, so use Ultra or Mega for demanding production chains.

Stack upgrades are integrated into Ultra, Mega, and Creative tiers and improve transfer efficiency by moving larger quantities per operation. If you're using Elite tier, you won't have this benefit built-in, but higher tiers automatically include it.

Yes—you can chain multiple Importers and Exporters together on a single Refined Storage network to handle different item types or sources simultaneously, allowing for complex multi-stage automation setups.

Without filter configuration, Importers and Exporters will attempt to transfer all items, which can clog your network or cause unintended behavior. Always set up filters to specify exactly which items should move through each device.

The mod is designed to work alongside Refined Storage and RSRequestify, and generally integrates well with other addons that use the same cable and network system. Check compatibility with specific mods on community forums if you encounter issues.

It adds better Exporter, Importer, Constructor, Destructor, Disk Interface, Autocrafter, Interface, and Requester blocks from Refined Storage and RSRequestify. These come in Elite, Ultra, Mega, and Creative tiers.

The mod supports Minecraft 1.18.2, 1.19.2, 1.20.1, 1.21, 1.21.1, and 26.1.2.

It is available for Fabric, Forge, and NeoForge.

It adds improved blocks from Refined Storage and RSRequestify, so those mods are involved. The mod file registers items such as disk interfaces, exporters, importers, autocrafters, constructors, and destructors tied to those systems.

The tiers are Elite, Ultra, Mega, and Creative. Each tier is available in multiple colors, and the mod file registers autocrafter, constructor, destructor, disk interface, exporter, and importer variants for each.

Elite is 2x faster, Ultra is 5x faster, and Mega is 6.5x faster according to the author's project page, though the 9Minecraft article lists Mega as 8x faster. Creative is 15,000x faster.

Elite adds 9 extra filter slots, Ultra adds 27, and Mega and Creative add 45.

Yes, there is a Creative tier with 45 extra filter slots, 15,000x faster speed, and an integrated stack upgrade. Creative variants exist for autocrafters, constructors, destructors, disk interfaces, exporters, and importers.

Yes, the mod has a config file with options for each tier, including speed, energy usage, pattern slot count, transfer quota multiplier, and stack upgrade integration. There are also toggles like tieredAutocrafters, tieredConstructors, tieredDestructors, tieredDiskInterfaces, tieredExporters, tieredImporters, and tieredInterfaces.

Yes, the mod author states you are free to put this mod in your modpack.
