Is there a mod for count the items (e.g. fuel) that come from a chest
(with pipeworks) and they go to a furnace, so that there is no overflow (99)?
If there is no mod, ‎is it possible to create it ?

Hi Onyx,

I solved this issue (i.e. furnace overflow) with a wait loop inside the pipes forwarding goods to the furnace.
As long as the input slot of the furnace is not free, the other items will rotate in the wait loop.

A mod to do that? Not that I would know of.
It's easy to write some code to do this job.

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all: local meta = minetest.get_meta(pos) local inv = meta:get_inventory() -- Get the width of the current list local width = inv:get_width("foobar_list") local items = {} for i = 1, width do -- Read stack at position 'i' local stack = inv:get_stack("foobar_list", i) if not items[stack:get_name()] then items[stack:get_name()] = stack:get_count() else items[stack:get_name()] = items[stack:get_name()] + stack:get_count() end end -- Output the items print(dump(items))
