I would absolutely *love* to see: - Liquid Source have compatibility with - Create's fluid tanks - A way to turn Rotational Speed and/or Stress Units into Source - Mechanical Arms ability to place items on Pedestals and Arcane Platforms - And the ability to give and take from the Enchanting Apparatus - A Spell that gives temporary SU and Rotational Speed to a cog.

The arms should already be able to do that. Can't they send to and from inventories?

#

Or do they require a depot and/or tunnel?

#

They can with natural inventories. Like chests. But it seems a bit wonky with Repositories. And Contraptions also don't recognize Repositories either

#

But here's how the Current Mechanical Arm works RN with the Pedestals:

#

When you have the Mechanical Arm in your hand, and you right click a Pedestal or Arcane Platform, it places it on them, rather than saying it will place items there

Heh. Ok yeah makes sense. I have the same problem when I try to break a pedestal with a spell book lol

#

You might be able to do something like place a chest there, tell it to store in the chest, then break and replace it, so it keeps the coordinates

#

I'm actually not sure if it can place chests tbh, but that could be a good alt solution.

Will dropped items go into the Pedestal's Inventory?

#

You can hopper into pedestals, but they don't pick up items on their own

wide kestrel Sep 25, 2023, 4:20 PM

#

Or I suppose what I could do,
Is just have it put items in a chest, and under the chest have a hopper to the pedestals

#

But, definitely not quite as fun as being able to interact directly with the Arm.
However I understand that developers are people who are always busy lol, so I hope that doesn't come off as rude

Would be nice to make a "source Engine" where you feed source to it, and you can set the SU and RPM, and the faster it goes the more source it consumes.
