I would like to add some thoughts about this mod.
- I do not like the crafting interface. I'm sorry, it's a great thing to have, but it's tedious that you can't extract and deposit items while in the interface. I would recommend something like AE from minecraft, but different:
- You can have the normal crafting interface, but it acts like the normal (wireless) storage access/storage heart. The only difference is that it has the default terraria crafting interface to the left of the storage. Along with the crafting interface, you have a "Craft core" or something, where you put crafting things inside, which then allow you to craft with those things through the interface.
- Sorting is wonky, as the "sort by stack amount" sorts by how many stacks of items you have. I would rather it sort by how many of that item is in the system.
- Cost is a little bit high. I feel like it should be more around, i don't know, 6-8 ingots along with the gem instead of 10.
- The dear old Locator Drive. I do NOT like this thing. It's endgame, and by then your storage system is already how you want it; It only holds the location until you use it, then it's gone; and it is very expensive. I do not like to waste that much luminite on an item like that. I'd rather save the materials for modded things. PLEASE make a change here, it's sad and needs some love.
- Storage connectors should definitely be a background item. I do not like having holes in my walls where the storage connectors are, even though they are 1 wide. Simply because, I can't run them through rooms (suitable for NPC's or a spawn point.)
Those are some things I don't like. I am very happy you have a handheld remote storage access in the works, and I can't wait, but PLEASE make it cheaper than the locator drive. I'm thinking more like, idk, Chlorophyte? Maybe even create some ore that has properties involving item teleportation? Ooh! I know! how about you need to use Teleporters in the recipe? I don't know. Now I don't like to end posts on a sad note, so I'm going to end with recommendations and what I enjoy.
- I love this mod in general. I hate having 3 million, unsorted chests in my house, where I have to look through every single one to find one item.
- The way storage works. I love how all the things just need to be touching for it to work. It makes me happy.
Some recommendations:
- A creative storage cell that just holds infinite items, and not just gives a "creative inventory."
- to solve the storage connector problem from earlier, a storage cable that works like wiring?
- First mod to have item hoppers? I/O busses?
That's what I have to say. I'd rate this mod 200/10, as this kind of thing has been needed for YEARS! Thank you very much! I recommend this mod to everyone!
