Nice Mod!!!

[mtango688]

Feel free to fork my code. It is all WTFPL, after all.

Why did I never have an idea like this? What a perfect idea to store my useless cobble stackwise in one single node!

Could you change the pipeworks and technic dependencies into optional? Not every server/client wants to enable those mods. But having a way to store a giant amount of material would make the life much easier.

I did a fast-fix for the pipeworks dependency because there's only one function called in the whole mod:

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

pipeworks.scan_for_tube_objects(pos)
-VVVV- Changed to -VVVV-
if pipeworks then
   pipeworks.scan_for_tube_objects(pos)
end

Awesome mod idea! Best thing is, I can use /giveme to put a bunch of nodes in one place and not worry about them not looking weird as the only thing in the "chest".

If you mod this to get away from Pipeworks, you'll want to consider how to handle do_output() (since that calls Technic, which also calls Pipeworks). I mean, you'd pretty much want to remove/convert all the automation code.

I always if I start the mod I get this Error:

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

I hope you can fix it.

Thanks.

[Krock]

I hope you can fix it.

YOU can fix it by using an indev build. The version you use does not have the required features that were used in this mod. Look in the Builds sub-forum for a newer build. If you don't want to update, wait one or two weeks, then you will be able to download 0.4.14-stable from the website.

Nice Mod I like it really.

If I use a cache in a area on a server I always get a message that I not the owner of the cache.
This is only if you don't have the area privilege and if the cache is in a area.
