Hey,
Wondering if someone might be able to help me out.
My mod 'Practical Logistics' integrates with Applied Energistics to display storage networks on screens.
Example Video

My actual question is what is the best way to use BaseActionSource to interact with Blocks, without having a Tile which implements IActionHost. Mostly because I thought it would be a good idea to utilise the External Storage handlers for my own handling of inventories to allow support for more mods without writing separate handlers. Currently ME Interfaces already work although I might not have implemented them in the best way....ME Interface Handler Class using the block itself as the IActionHost

Also this my attempt at External Storage so far

Thank you!

Anyone? I still haven't been able to do the External Storage Handlers. Although I have changed the way I connect to networks, allowing for any block not just the ME interface. Just trying to work out how to get all External Handlers

Thanks for getting back to me. What I really wanted to know was the most efficient way of reading all the items/fluids stored in an ME system from one block on the network. Here is what I'm using at the moment. https://github.com/SonarSonic/Sonar-Core/blob/master/src/main/java/sonar/core/handlers/inventories/AE2InventoryProvider.java#L66

This is called every tick to update the items. I basically just lifted some of your code.

Could you specify what you mean with interact since I do not fully grasp what you really want to achieve and how we can help you
