can u post the source code for further development??

Hi bro. Do you have the source code for the transmitter? If so, please reply to me. thank you

I think this mod might be unstable by now, I haven't updated it in a long time. Maybe I should open-source it to see if another mod dev wants to grab it.

I've had the config set for 500 slot item count, but am losing anything I pull once it gets to 300 slots used. Am I missing something? Is it only a problem when pulling items into the box?

@lfinx @Grog Grueslayer I was wondering if I was the only one. A couple days ago, my server crashed because I had a Magic Box on my Bronto's platform saddle and I had the idea "Oh I can just keep harvesting, use the S+ Transfer tool and put everything in the box, change channels on the Magic Box, repeat. Well the first time I used the transfer tool on the Bronto to the Magic Box my server crashed giving me some error I hadn't seen before. Then I LITERALLY just crashed doing what lfinx did.

I love this mod, but I guess I'll have to remove it for now

@Ifinx: I've ran into that a lot by what I assume is from putting too much stuff in the container. I set the slots to 1,000 so that's probably not a good idea to make it that big either.

Hey everyone. I'm gonna post in the 'Bugs' section as well about this.

Anyway, has anyone had trouble when going back to a server with this mod changing to a different channel, accessing the inventory, Getting the message "Retrieving Remote Inventory" then getting kicked out of the server, and the server completely freezing? If so how do you fix this without loosing the stuff in the box?

Generally not a bad idea. Here some suggestions which could greatly improve usage:
1) Share by Name, meaning all storages having the same name shares.
2) Share across Maps (for Single Player) store the stored amounts in ini-file or somewhere and allow the same appear on another map if having the same name (from suggestion 1). Allow players to farm on the prefered map and use it everywhere.

is it possible to turn the pvp setting off where destroying one box drops the content if done so by something other than owner?

@cathie6
GameUserSettings.ini:
[MagicStorage]
ItemCount=80

isnt it already written?

how do you change the amount of storage of the magic box would love to change size of the slots but dont know how

Man this Mod is a a must have for those who dont wish to use some of the bigger Mods out there that do Item Management along with a billion other things...

Thanks for making this... I just used it yesterday in a new SP game where I had a whole bunch of Stone and wood and thatch collected at my spawn start area, and had no way to take it to my new base without making a hundred trips through Raptors, Rex's, and Allo's...

A friggin huge time saver... Thanks again!!!

I changed the engram level to 15 and it properly shows up there, but it is still purchasable at level 1 (provided you had the engram points to do so...). It isn't darkened out like normal engrams until you reach the set level.

Thanks SpootyShiznit, anything you can tell me about when/how this incident occurred would be appreciated. Some details:

Game Mode: Single Player, Hosted Session, Dedicated Session
Time between incident: Overnight? Or in-game during play?
How the problem manifested: Chest was still on Channel 2 but was empty? Chests reset to Channel 1?

Thanks!

I love this idea and all the best in polishing it but as it stands right meow, too risky. I lost all my stuff in the second and third channels again. I look forward to giving this another go in the future.

Hey, nice Mod. Is there a way to make it accessible for all players no matter wich tribe (set neutral) and to make it invincible? Wanna use it as Event Treasure Chest.

Have to come back and mention that I LOVE this mod.(rated a thumbs-up for it) As a solo player, the really huge maps are daunting due to how long it takes to travel the map. The magic chest lets me make better use of some of the cool locations that are just too remote. Great work!
(when you add more channels plz make purple one of the colors, I love purple, lol)

ender chest

Best Ark mod I've ever used. 10/10 Would recommend to anyone whether new or a veteran this makes the game drastically better.

*recipe crafting costs

@Zor .... recipes/engram level reqs are not bound to mods in anycase... anyone can edit them themselves

wow, so fast! Thanks for adding the info!
Knowing that the crafting cost and engram level is configurable, I'm super-exited to try this mod. Favorited and subbed

Thanks for the advice, I will update the description accordingly!

For the mod description page, you might want to indicate if this adds a new engram that needs to be learned, if so, at what level it is learned, and maybe what the construction cost is for each chest. (and if any of these things are configurable via ini) Just so that while browsing, the person can gauge if it would be balanced for their server or SP game.

For instance, S+ has an Item transmission box that is sort of similar to this that requires power and is very very expensive to make( cost is 8 vaults plus some resources, for each chest/transmitter )

I plan to check this mod out later today when i get home from work, but you might catch more interest if the above info is included on the description page. (love the treasure chest model by the way, with the color channel lighting the back hinges.) The S+ one is so expensive to make, I'd love a cheaper option which would help with really huge maps. Hopefully this mod fits the bill :)

Thanks!

Favorited and Thumb-ed Up!

Thanks so much, I really appreciate it!

Great mod! Love the new look as well! Thanks BG!

All major storage bugs should now be fixed.

Thanks, appreciate it. I don't think that's the only issue. I just reproduced what you described and I am patching it now. Should have a bunch of bugs fixed by tomorrow at the latest.

And just want say. Love the mod. Great idea.

Yes in one of the boxes. I just read that in the bugs section. I guess that’s what it was.

Did you have blueprints in your box when this happened?

So just lost everything in my box. I just destroyed one of my boxes to move it (this wasn't the only one) and a bag appeared with no where near what I had in there. and when I did it again it was halfed again. Not sure if this is a bug.

This is a godsend. Even if it only had one channel, incredibly useful. I have been using for a week with no glitches (although Im only using one channel).

Updated the description, thanks!

your description should show ModID number like most of the big mods do?

BG, I've increased the ItemCount to 1000 and everything seems to be works fine.

Did anyone experience any issues with this mod after last night's update? Has anyone tried the ItemCount setting? Thanks!

Last night I pushed an update that may have some unintended side effects to in-use Storage Containers. I made a change to the way the box saves/loads its current configuration which was a one time change but it could cause some headache.

If you login to find your green and blue chests are now red, you will have to sacrifice the items inside those containers. Change the channel of the now red box and loose all your items, problem solved.

In this state, if you try to remove items from the chest without switching channels first, you will crash the server.

I will pin this in discussions too.

Sorry for anyone impacted by this, I did warn that the mod was in test and I did this to fix a very serious future bug.

I agree lol.... admins can remove the demo gun.

S+ Demo Gun could be prevented but yeah, not sure it's the most important use of my time

3) High Resource Cost to build - cannot be moved after placement

S+ Demo gun makes that not a thing

Finally, an ender chest mod

I'm unfamiliar with cryopodded dinos but if they work in a normal inventory then they should work with this mod. But if your point is that you don't want players to be able to put that item in this inventory then that makes sense.

Making a configurable blacklist via config file is a must have feature now that you mention it, thanks for the idea!

Hmmm... even cryopodded dinos? ... potential hazard there maybe?

Definately need to be able to block things in the config.

Sry i cant test on our cluster :)

It supports all items.

This looks very interesting

Resources only? Or crafted items as well?
