[Request] Amount on alt

Post by Redlemon »

Hello,

Very simple, i think it would be nice to see the amount of item on chest (if only one kind is inside).

Like this :

Maybe only on logistics chest

What do you guys think ?

Have a great day !

I don't know if it is possible, the only text you can show dinamically, is "flying-text".
Maybe saving all containers in a array, counts amount every X seconds and shows for X seconds, i think this is easier see on the left when you have the mouse over the container :|
But i like the idea :)

Ho yes... the technical feasibility ^^

The info panel on the right is fine, but a bit messy for now. And you can't really have a quick scope on all your chest...

Nevermind then :p

Maybe can select every container you want "count", and show in a cute gui
And show every container selected with a custom entity type arrow.
