How to Retrieve Resources and Protect Item Sorters

Using Retrieval Mode

When you need base materials for building or manual processing rather than crafting finished goods, you do not have to open every container manually.

1. Open your crafting interface while near your storage containers.

2. Engage retrieval mode to pull uncraftable resources straight out of surrounding storage.

3. The requested resources are moved directly into your inventory without requiring you to locate and open individual chests.

Whitelisting and Blacklisting Containers

Because the mod automatically accesses surrounding storage, automated sorting systems or decorative displays need protection against unwanted ingredient pulls.

• Protecting Sorters: Automated redstone sorters rely on fixed item quantities in specific containers. If ingredients are pulled from these hoppers or chests, sorting mechanisms can break.
• Configure Access Lists: Use the container blacklisting feature to exclude specific storage units, ensuring the mod never extracts items from automated sorting lines.
• Configure Whitelists: Alternatively, set up container whitelisting to restrict the mod so it only scans and pulls from approved bulk storage chests, leaving all other nearby containers untouched.
