Quantum Storage Mod

Description
Getting tired of constantly running around with resource barrels?
Then this mod is for you!

Two new barrels:
- Quantum Export Barrel
- Quantum Input Barrel

They form a sort of wireless network between each other.
The Export Barrel sends it's content to the Input Barrel, meaning that you can have an Export Barrel on your Mining Rig and an Import Barrel on a tank.

No more running around with barrels anymore!

------------------------------------------------------------
Actually, this is my first mod ever and a very basic one at that.
No models has been changed (They all use the default resource barrel model), however the GUI is changed a bit on the Input and Output barrels.

Would you be able to do something similar for power cables? Maybe a short antenna like connector?

Havnt tried the Mod yet; actually not having problem with the cables Mod as I redid it to work with my Resource Mod and it works I dont know why; I only changed resources and probly removed the resource list if there was one; I will look into it; just need permission to add the changed Mod to my list for download.

I am having issues with Resources Cables (Main-MrMonochromes) ... as such and until I can figure out what is going on with it, I am trying out this MOD. Reason is I saw the WiFi Mod which seems similar and may try that one out too ... just a later fix for moving stuff but ideally there should be cables I guess.

DARP, You do know that Knightsleeper steal's peolple's stuff regularly right? He was banned the last time he did it and now he's done it again.

any idea where the 'range' value is? ie. how close they have to be for the transfer to occur?

@Knightsleeper I have no objections. Go ahead and add it to your modpack.
@jarhead Actually, that was my first intent with this mod but due to the limited time I have I was unable to make it work like intended.. I might give it another shot in the near future to see if I could make it work.

I would like to use this mod in a mod pack. Please Let me know if I can,

Can you set up a wa to make these so they connect one input to one output and don't change to another one each time it get more supplies (like if your trying to fill a storage tank with oxygen the barrel attached will first get oxygen then the next time it could get nitrogen or argon etc).

This could be done by giving it an access gui through holding "E" to open it (like the container menus) so you can set a 2 digit "channel" on each barrel. This channel function would force each sending unit to only work with the reciever units that are on the same "channel"

Example 1: sender channel 01 transmits to all recievers on channel 01 but ignores the recievers on channel 02

Example 2: reciever on channel 01 will take in all stuff from all senders on channel 01 but ignores the senders on channel 02

I was not aware of this.
It's been quite a while since I made this mod and I haven't really had the time to update it to the newest version of the game (Haven't even played ToM in several months).

Perhaps I'll get some time over this weekend. If I do i'll check out all the new things and hopefully be able to fix this mod to work with the other machines as well.

Interesting idea. Are you aware you this mod prevents you from building some other machines? ie. the small resource machines.
