Had this happen on AllTheMods 8 pack, AppliedBotanics 1.4.2 Forge, AE2 12.9.2, couple other AE addons that.. I don't think are causing this? Anyways. First Gist is when the Comparator is already in place (part of generation flowers automation) and I try to set down the Fluix Pool, second is if the existing Comparator is broken, the Fluix Pool is set down, then a Comparator attached to it in a different location from the first crash.

If it matters any, there is a Fluix Cable under where I'm setting the Pool.

Try this build

Turns into this with a black and purple checkered screen at the beginning of the game loading, crashing before main menu.

For what it's worth, I can simulate the Comparator by using a Level Emitter.

Also, you might want to point out somewhere that Emitter, Interface, Export Bus, etc functionality for moving Mana needs a Band of Mana (maybe a tablet?) for specifying the "fluid" being moved. I only found out after checking the few not-unlisted videos on your Youtube.

EDIT: Is it possible this is happening because the Fluix Pool seemingly has no "tank" for the Mana itself? If I don't have a Mana drive in the ME system attached to it, the Spreaders don't want to fire bursts into the pool. I would just do Import Busses on the Spreaders themselves, but I'm using a Mana Detector and Sequencer from RFTools to automate feeding the flowers so no resources are wasted.

The Sequencer is under the Detector, same setup that Dire did in his ATM8 playthrough a while ago, I just updated it to Applied Botanics so I have lots more storage than a 5*5 of normal Mana Pools.

The comparator dosn't break the game any more but all other applied botanics items are broken :D

Please open a new issue if 1.4.4 doesn't fix this

Ah I forgot to run datagen... whoops!

Well anyway, the full release will fix this, wait for 1.4.4 Fabric and Forge in a few minutes

Hi im getting the same same error on version 1.4.2 Valhelsia 5 but for me the game worked for a while and then crashed. Not sure for how long but know when i attach a comparator to a flux mana pool the game crashes instantly had to use world edit to remove comp to enter the world again.

@TheEye2108 Could you try this build and please confirm if it fixes the bug? Applied-Botanics-0.0.0.zip
