Cargo Teleporter

Description
Cargo Teleporter

What is it?
This block will teleport items to (or from) another storage container. I cannot model, so vanilla models have been used.

Works with both laser and radio antennas.

Conveyor Sorter Based - Uses power and can be turned off.

Large Ships/Stations: Uses Large Sorter model. 1 MW Power Usage

Small Ships : Uses Small ship varient of Large Sorter model. 500 kW Power Usage

Note: Drain mode will dump to / pull from connected storage.

How to use

Teleport to Storage
Add [T:{Block Name}] to the name of the Teleporter.
ex "Cargo Teleporter [T:Small Cargo Container 2]"

This will push the inventory of the Teleporter into "Small Cargo Container 2".

Teleport from Storage
Add [F:{Block Name}] to the name of the Teleporter.
ex "Cargo Teleporter [F:Small Cargo Container 2]"

This will pull the inventory of "Small Cargo Container 2" into the Teleporter.

Teleport to / from a different grid
Add [G:{Grid Name}] to the name of the Teleporter.
ex "Cargo Teleporter [G:Static 7763] [T:Small Cargo Container 2]"

This will push the inventory of the Teleporter into "Small Cargo Container 2" on the grid named "Static 7763" if they are connected via an antenna network.

Antenna signal relaying (aka using the chain of antennas you own), you can now use chains/networks of antennas to find specific targets.

Note
The Teleporter and destination blocks must be owned by the same person or the same faction. 'Nobody' is a valid choice as well.

The Mode (T/F/G) is case insensitive.
ex Both "[T:Small Cargo Container 2]" and "[t:Small Cargo Container 2]" will push the inventory of the Teleporter into "Small Cargo Container 2".

Leading and trailing spaces are ignored.
ex "[ T :Small Cargo Container 2]", "[T: Small Cargo Container 2 ]", "[ T : Small Cargo Container 2 ]" are all equivalent to "[T:Small Cargo Container 2]"

Removed all the VS folders and sln file etc. from the downloaded mod file and its working fine again.

This throwing an error for me. It appears the VS studio obj folder is in the uploaded mod and SE is throwing a fit about the files being there.

Is there a version of this that is expensive? I'd prefer something like this to be either high end even when antenna connection is established, or like.. slow and inexpensive still requiring antenna connection by viable for slow early game lazy work

I notice that sometimes the cargo teleporter gets stuck. So it will be sending items to another container on another grid and the items will entirely void or the teleporter will stall entirely regardless of the inventory status of the container being sent to. Usually when either of these happen a save reload at least is required but it usually happens again within 10 minutes

A simple description how to use.
Build cargo, build teleporter block next to cargo with arrows facing out.

Build cargo of where you want them to go.

If the cargo of where they are going are on same grid, then you do not need a G tag in the teleporter block. Name field..

Same grid, you put as follows [T:name of cargo where it's going] in the name.

If off grid, you put [G: name of grid] [T:name of cargo] as the name .

quick question do i need to have both cargo teleports set on to pull from a cargo on one grid and one to push to on another grid. Like do i need them both set with the T/F or do i just set one and leave the other blank. and can i have multiple teleports on one grid going different places. thanks in advance

Yeah, I understand, I host a server and I want a global filter setting for all players by default.

@Faceless You can use the filters in the block (it acts like a sorter) or put a sorter just before the teleporter.

Can you add the option to restrict items from being teleported, i want all components and ammo from being teleported

Works for me on my Daryabar star cluster servers. Fully uses antenna networks. When matter transmitting will sometimes say "disconnected" but if you look at the block's inventory you will see it is working. This will fill/empty a large cargo container in minutes. It also works ship-planet, ship-ship, over any of your owned antenna networks. Grids can be moving as in a grid on Europa transmatting Ice to a ship's medium cargo, keeping O2 generator fueled. Mining ships can transmat ores directly back to your base. You can transmat directly to any block that holds cargo. Warning, if left on and there is nothing to send they can cause performance issues.
