I am on the stock 1.6.4 DW 20 pack, version 1.0.23, with nothing added, and was wondering if there was a way to secure the network so others can't open it up without having to use warded stone, or golems, etc to defend?

Working on a few new things here.


Thanks,

Brian
 
Warded blocks are pretty much the only thing that can't be broken in some way so I dunno.

If you have mystcraft, you could hide your MAC and ME drives in a pocket dimension then keep the linking book on your person when you log off. You need a singularity connecting to the overworld to make this work.

Connect the terminals to a dark cable adjacent to a wireless redstone repeater so you can deactivate them remotely, then keep a wireless thingummy for the repeater on your person when you log off. That way they have to dig around blindly to find it.
 
I was thinking a terminal or something like that. I checked on the AE site, and there looked to be plans for a security terminal at one point for AE1, but appears to never have made it in.
 
No not with AE itself. You would have to go lengths of using MFFS, Geostrata, Warded "shells" etc. You can pull your disks out and put them in your inventory when you log out(or put into strongbox, but if you have a semi extensive network that is more of a hassle than it is worth tbh.

Probably your most secure way to avoid people from stealing stuff while you are offline or choose to disable the network, would be to encase all your storage inside a shell of warded blocks. Then when you log out cut the connection to the outside network(dark cable etc.).
If you had Random Things you could automate this with the Online Detector.
 
Well, that leaves them with one block in, so with Morph, which is in DW20, they can get in. Use the transvector interface through the wall.

Not if you use the Quantum bridge to connect the inside and outside.
