Item Loader

└ Module: Automation

Description


This block will fill any storage cart beneath it with the items from an adjacent block with an inventory (Chest, Furnaces, Unloaders, etc…). Buildcraft pipes can also supply items directly to the Loader's own internal inventory slot. When the cart is full the Loader will send out a redstone signal. The recommended setup is a Boarding Track placed beneath the Loader. This track will be automatically powered by the Loader. If you right-click on the Loader it will open a GUI, see below for more information.

Recipe


Will use Stone Pressure Plate if Detectors are unavailable.

Item Unloader

Description


This block will empty the contents of a storage minecarts inventory into an internal inventory slot. From there the items will be moved to adjacent blocks with inventories (Chest, Furnaces, Loaders, etc..) or can be piped out using Buildcraft. It will only empty carts that pass over the Unloader. The recommended setup is a Boarding Rail placed on top of the Unloader. The Unloader will send out a redstone signal when there is nothing to unload from the cart. If you right-click on the Unloader it will open a GUI, see below for more information.

Advanced Item Loader

Description


Similar to the normal Item Loader except for that fact that it does not rely on gravity to load items. This enables it to load items horizontally instead of vertically. Orientation can be adjusted with the Crowbar or a IC2 wrench.
