that was my favourite song as a boy (the blue one, not the poo one)... thanks for the nostalgia trip
Turns out I can't really do it that way.
There's only one function open peripherals exposes which has the functionality I need. That is getStackInSlot. I should be able to just read the slots 10-18 and start the machine if they're all non-zero.
The problem is that it's supposed to return a table but I always get a nill out, no matter how I cut it. So I dug around a bit and it turns out the slots aren't really exposed.
Now I'm sad
.I generally have ideas for codes, and for this one I was thinking of one based around this one:Turns out I can't really do it that way.

For example, one of my systems was quite complicated, that involved deployers, a block breaker, and a charging system that kept measure wheter any of the 3 redstone energy cells had some energy in them.
I'm not exactly good with coding, but raw logic, yeah, I'm quite good.
I still don't know how to generate a random signal/number using logic, however, and that's something I want.

Ask the OP guy to support it? He's been super responsive from what I've seen and tell him to bug me if he needs an MFR thingy to do what you want.
It's probably been suggested before, but the only thing MFR seems to lack is up and down movement for conveyor belts.
You can do that ... they ramp up and down just fine. Unless your asking for pure straight up vertical movement.
It's been asked and will probably happen eventually but no idea when. Plus that means I need to edit that conveyor renderer again..
And then we will want conveyors that mount upside-down on the ceiling so we can make a big loop-de-loop!
and facades for rednet
and if you're slack PC, analogues for all the gregtech machines, so , you know...
the only gt machines that i didnt find analogs for are centrifuge and electrolyzerand facades for rednet

Facades are really cool and because I am a dummy I still haven't worked out how to get immibis microblocks to work on rednet even though I have heard they can. (Maybe I heard wrong though). So Facades for rednet would be awesome.
I was just being glib, although a liquid DSU would be awesome!
I think I read in PC's mcf thread that making rednet cables facade-able would take a lot of work so sorry to bring it up again, I've yet to try immibis' microblocks, but if they work then that's cool

Its ok about rednet and facades. The mod has more than enough cool content so we can't complain. I really don't know about the microblocks, I hope I haven't got your hopes up over nothing. I think there is some sorcery in the config that allows it to work with more things but I haven't figured out what it is. Its not high on my priorities to be honest because my current base is meant to be more industrial looking so exposed pipes or wires are less of thing for me anyway, and rednet cable looks quite nice which is a bonus!
Road Slabs or Road Stairs. I just got done renovating a testificate village's road system, and noticed the lack of anything road-like that lets you do elevation without needing to jump...
I've got roads, and inverted road lights (even a cute little fence around the village to keep the derpy testificates safe), but either road half-slabs or road staircases would be a boon.
