Cargo Teleporter (Unlimited Range Version)

This mod is abandoned.
I no longer have any interest developing or maintaining any if my space engineers mods.
As far as i know, it works as of 23rd September 2017 / Beta 1.184.1.


What is it?

This block will teleport items to (or from) another storage container.
Currently, there are two versions, Both using vanilla models as i cannot model.

Cargo Container version. - The For fun, no power needed and no off switch version.
Large Ships/Stations: Uses Small Cargo Container model.
Small Ships : Uses Medium Cargo Container model.

Conveyor Sorter Version. - The new version. Uses power and can be turned off.
Large Ships/Stations: Uses Large Sorter model. 1 MW Power Usage
Small Ships : Uses Small ship varient of Large Sorter model. 250 kW Power Usage
Note: Drain mode will dump to / pull from connected storage.

There is now a separate Workshop mod with just the conveyor version that requires an antenna, see https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=565601395

And the laser Tesla version collab with Warbros,

How to use

After placing the block, Edit the name of the block and set the destination by adding [T|F:NAME] to the name and editing as follows.

T|F: - You can choose to transfer item TO or FROM the target container ( [T:NAME] for to or [F:NAME] for from)

NAME - the name of the container (or any block with inventory) to transfer to. Which must be unique across the Entire World.

So, a Cargo Teleporter named "Cargo Teleporter [T:Small Cargo Container 2]" will transfer to a container called Small Cargo Container 2.

The Teleporter and destination blocks must be owned by the same person. 'Nobody' is a valid choice as well.



The Witch has kindly made a video to show off what this is and how it works. Cheers mate!

Notes:

This is not balanced, mainly as this was made for fun. Also, my first mod for space engineers.

Due to a bug in Space Enginners, the ModAPI cannot get a valid inventory from cockpits, making them not work with this mod. For now, error checking has been added to stop log spam and to prevent crashing from it.

Both versions can also be turned off by adding -Off- to their names.

When used with the Automated Sorting by Tysis, due to how this block is named (my fault), A.S. will sometimes put items into the container when it shouldnt. It's due to how its named as well as i use the same style tags as A.S. Not using the words, 'Cargo' or 'Storage' in the name gets around it.
