Integraded dynamics)tunnels detect item in chest.

[Dentvar]

Hi,

I just got started with integrated dynamics. I have seen some spotlights but not much around there that goes into details.

I understand a bit of programming so I get what a variable is and operators, pointers, variable types,...

never the less I can't get my head around on how to make a simple:
- check if Cobblestone is on a vanilla chest and output a Redstone signal.

Lets split it up were my problems are.

1. Set item to search for. (Searched_Item)
   
   • Item Variable Card set to: Cobblestone
     
   • or String Variable Card set to: "Cobblestone"
2. Get the item in the chest. (Inv_Item)
   
   • I tried with the "List". My idea was to check the list content against the Item type. This way I do not have to care about Item slots. Otherwise, I would need to make a loop that checks each item Slot. (not sure if loops are possible)
     
   • I understand that the elements of the lists are of type 'String'. So in 1 I need to set a String variable to: "Cobblestone"
3. Check content vs item (Comparator)
   • Tried with the compare function... but does not seems to work. Take in as Argument 1 a List and Argument 2 = Any gives back boolean.
4. Output if true or false.(Output)
   • Easy.. just get the boolean return from the Comparator and set it on a Redstone Writer.

edit: Clean-up and better asking

I just rewrote the post so it's a bit clearer and more structured... I wrote it this morning on the mobile and had a bit of a hurry.
If there is no one around here who has the answer, is there a special reddit or integrated Dynamic thread where I could find someone more involved in this?
