The Nano Table allows you to transform items into energy similar to EE2 the Nano Table can transport the energy via wires. The Nano Table has limitations, the lower the amount of energy the item is worth the more time it takes to transform. You're able to use modules to upgrade the time it takes, depending on what type of module it is the faster it goes there will be modules to make it instantly transform but they're going to be tricky to make. The Nano Table can only hold a certain amount of energy so the energy it creates needs to be outputted to an ESD (Energy Storage Device) if you want to store large sums of energy.
Nano Selection:
Nano Selection is a table that I haven't currently made a name for, it looks similar to the creative menu where you can search for whatever item you wish, except for things like spawn eggs, bedrock, potions etc. The things you can pick can be changed via the configs. Nano Selection takes energy, the amount of energy is equal to the cost of the item so you can get a whole bunch of cobble for a small price. But there are also limitations just like the Nano Table where it takes time to create the item, it's not instant but you can use modules to make it instant/faster. The table can receive it's energy from the Nano Table or an ESD (Energy Storage Device)
Features Being Worked On:
Dark Matter:
Dark Matter is a rare thing to find, but it outputs large amounts of energy. The energy is limited though and can be used up quick depending on how large the cluster of dark matter is. The Dark Matter is also dangerous, it has penalties such as if you use too much of the energy and the cluster becomes unstable it has the chance to create a Black Hole. Dark Matter can be moved while contained in an item, but at a cost. The cost being the longer it is contained the more energy it loses, so it's possible for the Dark Matter to lose all of it's energy by the time you get back to your base. There will be different types of containers, the less stable containers will decrease the amount of energy the dark matter contains, while the more stable containers will not make it so the dark matter doesn't lose a lot of energy while being transported.
If Dark Matter is unstable you can still stabilize it to prevent it from turning into a black hole, but as you stabilize it, it has a chance to lose more energy during the process.
Black Holes:
Black Holes are dangerous, and you do not want to be near them when they are big. Black Holes form when dark matter becomes unstable, but before a black hole forms the Dark Matter gives off signs like lightning and stuff like that. When a Black Hole first appears it will be small but suck in items like dirt and sand (Light Items) but as it grows it will start sucking up heavier things like stone, mobs, machines sometimes and then when they finally get big enough, chests. If a chest only has a couple items in it, it will be lighter than a full chest so the chest with less items would be picked up first by smaller black holes. If you start to see a Black Hole forming you can still stop it by stabilizing it, you will not get the Dark Matter back though. If you're brave you can harness the Black Holes energy while it's small. But if you choose to do that it increases the rate in which it grows.
ESD (Energy Storage Device):
This is a very useful machine, it allows you to store large sums of energy into it. At first the device wont be able to hold a lot of energy but as you put more upgrades on it, the more energy it will be able to hold. These can get their energy from the Nano Table and output energy to the Nano Selection stuff. This is also able to receive energy from Energy Utilizers whom can get their energy from Black Holes and Dark Matter.
ESD's will not be too expensive, but their upgrades will be so plan your resources. Though you could have an array of ESD's.
Energy Conversion:
The Nano Energy will be able to be converted into Build Craft energy at small amounts, This can be used for self-powering quarry's or energy systems run off quarry's instead of engines. The resources would have to go through the Nano Table first though and then onto the ESD then finally to the converter. This can be very useful in some cases, you can have your whole base running off quarry's.

This mod is going to be amazing. Now that EE2 development has stopped, this would be perfect for my server.
Hope this gets finished. Keep up the good work

Working on something similar to the destruction catalyst from EE2, It will be balanced a lot more so server owners don't have to worry, it will also have configs to make it so server owners can select which blocks can be broken. It will use Nano Energy for it's power and you can charge it with a storage device you can hold in your inventory, while in your inventory it will charge anything that uses Nano Energy. Things such as armor will also have this use so if you equipped a chest plate with large sums of energy you would be able to discharge that energy into your tools in your inventory. I also still need a texture artist as you can see from the image above I'm pretty bad at making textures myself.
NOTICE: Open Beta will be open soon! Estimated time is about 1 week.
This looks really nice! If you are planning to make a few items that are similar to EE2, do you think you could consider a flying ring (Or something similar that allows you to fly), consuming nano energy? The flying ring was one of my favorite items from EE2 because it made building and transportation so much easier, and I think it would be a really nice addition to the mod. Looking forward to the open beta too, I'd love to play around with some of the things you've made!
The cube on the Energy Storage Device looks awesome! I'll download this when it comes out!
Thanks, Beta will be open soon so you don't have to wait too long
Also: Now working on an item that makes it easier to replace blocks in a 3x3 area (By default, can be upgraded to have more) You will be able to select what block you want and then if you have the blocks you selected in your inventory you can replace a 3x3 area of blocks.
The Energy Storage Device now has new features, There is a new item called an "Energy Core" which looks like the cube above the Energy Storage Device, You must now place an energy core inside of the ESD in order for it to work, when you activate it the red light and the cube will render like in the picture above, There may be multiple types of cores, and the cores will be movable. If you have an energy core in your inventory it charges all the item in your inventory. You can also dump energy out of the core into the ESD which will go into another core.

Sorry, didn't see this message :P, But yeah I may add something similar to the flying ring I liked it too, and it was pretty useful.
The open beta may come out sooner than I thought, seeing as I'm fixing a lot of the bugs fast, I just need to finish the Item Selectors temporary GUI while I fix it's old one. (The temporary one will be like EE2's condenser where you just put an item into a slot and it clones it) Seeing as the GUI currently has a crashing bug that I need to mess around with. But I'll see how the temporary one does and I'll see which one people like and put that one in.
I'm also updating the energy system a little by working on the wires a little more and making things like the ESD more stable.
When the Beta is open I don't think the Catalyst will be done, because right now I don't want to release it due to it lagging you when you use it so I will probably make it destroy rows one at a time to stop that lag and group together the items that fall or send them straight into your inventory if there's space. The Nano Exchange tool may be done though.
If you would like any other tools before the first beta version comes out suggest it here and I'll try to work on it.
By the way, I still need a texture person for models, blocks and items. So if anyone is interested look at the application form above.
Should hopefully have beta open by tomorrow (Sunday 4/14) I got held back today because I found a new bug and stuff like that. Also I'm adding a little surprise item in
