This just makes building storage unbelievably annoying as when automatically importing items if the storage they are directly being added to fills upm you are out of luck

auseawesome one method is to just use a storage drawer array, once you get access to it

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

really, you don't need access to every resource you've got automated though

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

or just a giant vault

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

its just irritating and doesn't make any sense

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

it's not broken

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

no, for your use case of "automatically storing things"

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

yes it is. storage bus + import bus = instant transport anywhere

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

Im storing everything in one large vault

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

no one would use that when AE2 stuff is really limited

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

i think there are plenty of places you could use this

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

as in how much you get

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

you can automatically get more

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

you can use the orange pipes from quark to do almost the same thing

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

that's pretty different

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

just without the instant part

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

why did you want to auto-import items

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

why not just set a storage bus watching a drawer holding the products

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

so early game I can take out powder and dye easier

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

or set up a belt between all your containers

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

because early game you dont have drawers

@Discord-Github-Bridge

i wish single-slot storages like that could be added without taking up an entire channel

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

that'd help a lot i think

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

well single-item more

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

also like I've mentioned in the other issue

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

I could just use any otehr container

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

because they are better

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

and also even a vault (the most compact storage bar a simple chest) fills up really quickly

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

this is a you problem

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

its quicker than deployers

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

anyway white powder is good to have a stock on just as a building block

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

white concrete is one of the cheapest if not the cheapest block

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

also it was an example

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

same thing happens for cobble generator

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

gray plate block is unreasonably cheap

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

and fermented block

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

it is no where near as cheap

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

it's easy to get hundreds though

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

also in a later update it'll stack to 512

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

but using belts and falling white powder you can automatically collect that at rates of like 16 blocks a second

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

with just the 2 starting pure daisies

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

that is fair

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

they're stuck at a measly 64 though, and can't support you when bridging

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

i think that import busses will also allow you to overfill your me network with random garbage

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

automatic insertion into a shared finite space cannot end well

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

I said concrete

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

unless you set up level emitters to disable them when they hit a certain threshol

@Discord-Github-Bridge

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

i prefer just hanging stockpiles at my setups and walking to them very infrequently

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

again, remember limited resources early game

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

I don't have the resources to build a lot of seperate stockpile

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

when vaults require an AE2 system to view

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

I have this system set up to automatically get this white powder, with a simple washing setup I could turn this into concrete

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

however, without ME import buses I have to rely on only being able to put this into 1 storage in my ME system

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

which could become an issue if my ME system gets full and I need to expand

@Discord-Github-Bridge
Copy link
Collaborator

auseawesome on Discord says

(for reference my ME storage is all one large vault)
