Descripe

importItemFromPeripheral and exportItemToPeripheral are not working with networked peripherals. The only work with directly connected ones (chest param = side name).

It always gives the error Target '{name}' does not exist.

Steps to reproduce

1. Create ME network with ME Bridge and computer.
2. Place chest and connect to computer with wired modems/network cables
3. Place items in chest and ME network for testing.
4. Run the following script (replace any values as needed)

b = peripheral.find("meBridge")

for _, name in ipairs(peripheral.getNames()) do
    print(name)
end

b.exportItemToPeripheral({name="minecraft:stone"}, "minecraft:chest_0")
b.importItemFromPeripheral({name="minecraft:cobblestone"}, "minecraft:chest_0")

Issue seems to be gone now. (Forge 40.1.20, AE 11.0 stable, 0.7.15b)

Ok so this was never an issue. It's intended behavior.

Thank you for the clarification.

Your rs bridge is not connected with the wired network
You need to connect the rs bridge with modems and wrap it with the network name so that it can access other network peripherals

Issue seems to still exist.

Same setup, same code. Not sure if this is a bug or intended behavior (though hopefully a bug/missing chunk of code).

Yep, I also noticed this very late
