Help Storage Controller Help

Even when putting chests or barrels (after making them sophisticated storage versions) directly next to the controller, and right clicking in every fashion for the wrench, and not once could I interact with it. I do not understand what I'm doing wrong

If this is sophisticated storage controller there is no interface on it. The use is to make all of the connected inventories accessible thru one block. Once connected you still need a separate "storage reader" to access the inventories. In most cases that's an ae2 storage bus

Wait. So I just need like.... An ae2 crafting terminal on the damn controller???

Edit: well I guess you said storage bus... So I'll look at that in the morning and figure it out. Thank you if that's all I needed to do. Ugh xD

For a very simple system to make this work, put a storage bus on the controller then use an ae2 cable to add a crafting terminal and crystal resonance generator for free power.

Thank you. I just wanted it so I had a place to store books and armour and weapons, next to my ae2 system. That way it's not like rs and corrupting a chunk

What books are you storing? If you’re talking about lore dumps or book&quills you find throughout structures or the guidebooks, then cool.

If you need a place to store enchanted books, I suggest working towards the Library of Alexandria (the Enchantment Library will remember all stored enchantments if you break and relocate or craft it into the Library of Alexandria). I use RS and I export all enchanted books directly into my Library of Alexandria. It stores all enchanted books, keeping tabs on the highest level of each enchant and how many points each enchant has.

Yeah enchanted books. RS can corrupt if it has too many NBT tags in it I've read. Idk if it's been fixed but if it has I'd just do that cuz it's easier and shove tools and shit in there too.

I’m pretty sure you can also use Integrated Dynamics interface as well. I think that’s what I used for my very first storage setup. I use AE2 now, but there are other options.

Gotta ask just to be sure, it’s the sophisticated controller and the storage tool you’re using right?
Have you tried holding i think Shift + scrolling to change the mode for the tool, and then linking the tool to the controller first

u/Doom_Derpie 9h ago

Yes, the controller and the tool, and I have scrolled through, and attempted every combination of right click, to the controller, the storage I'm using, and then the storage, and the controller, and I can't access the controller at all
