Accessing the Request Interface
The request system lets you ask your pipe network to deliver a specific item to you. Locate or craft a request interface block and place it somewhere accessible in your base.
Making a Request
Interact with the request interface and search for or select the item you need. Specify how many you want. The network will search all connected storage chests and containers for that item.
Network Requirements
For requests to work, your interface must be connected to a pipe network that links to your storage chests. Items will travel through the pipes and arrive at the request interface location. If the network doesn't have enough of the requested item, it will deliver what's available.
This system is especially useful for large bases where you don't want to walk to distant storage areas. You can place multiple request interfaces at different locations for convenience.
