First Energy system in MCreator

So I have created energy system in MCreator without the need for custom code
System is not perfect and I'm still working on it but it allows for basic stuff 

Currently It can:
Generate Energy
Store Energy
Send Energy "Wireles at the moment"
Consume Energy
Cross Mod compatibility "Option to create Addons"

Here is a small perview:

it's really nice, but yeah as you have said, it's not with code, so it's not compatible with the Forge Energy. :/ Anyway, it's really nice!

That's cool! Did you use nbt variables for that?

If yes, you can also use nbt to make equipment run on energy like the RF tools

Goldorion: I think it will be easy to converti it to FE since FE and VP uses same logic only difference is that VP is not declared as FE

NatePlays95: Yep its using NBT's since there is no other way to do it xD
but yeah making chargable tools was the firs thing I've got xD

Crispy_Chips1234: Will do one when everything will be stable enough :)

Small Update

Now energy can be transmitted and distributed between multiple machines
To transfer energy from battery it is required to have VP Transmitter on top of it
There will be different transmitters that will allow for multiple locations where we can send energy
Energy is also consumed equally to its transmission example: 2 locations will consume 2VP/t, 3 = 3VP/t etc.
here is example picture
It shows Solar generator and energy harvester "Harvester can store and distribute small amount of VP" on the left
Charged battery with VP Transmitter T1 "Middle"
2 different batteries that are charged at the same time by VP transmitter "Right side"
energy
