is there currently a mod consisting of 2 chests on a receiver and another a sender that will teleport items from one place to another? i googled and no such luck.
trying to do this without pipeworks. (and in pipeworks i cant ever get it to teleport consistently anyhow :) )

Don't use the teleport tubes of pipeworks, try Zeg9's teleporter mod, let some tube end above the first teleporter and add a sand pipe on the second teleporter.
You could also make a mod which loads meta from far away, loading unloaded nodes works with vm, when you right click on a far chest access node.

i actually just got that mod from Zeg9s mod page i was gonna disect it later. last post on the forum looks like it had some compatibility issues. the Zeg9 code will teleport any thing that is in the node space above it?
are the pipeworks teleport tubes broken and i missed the memo? :)
im looking for the teleport code so i can integrate it into my TBM (soon to be renamed Rapid Construction Miner:RCM) that way when its 80 slot inventory is full it can dump its hopper directly to home base or the factory, or the sorting facility. i am so tired of making 3 trips to empty it into my upgraded mithril chests. :)

to get the inventory you use minetest.get_meta
you only need to use it at the stable chest
minetest.get_meta(other_pos):…
