== Core concepts
|
|
|
|
Refined Storage is a storage mod where you can build a storage network made up of devices.
|
|
Those devices manipulate your storage.
|
|
|
|
In this tutorial:
|
|
|
|
- You'll craft a xref:storage/disk-drive.adoc[].
|
|
A xref:storage/disk-drive.adoc[] can contain item or fluid storage disks.
|
|
Those disks will provide your storage network with storage.
|
|
If you insert or extract an item, it will use the data on your disks.
|
|
- You'll craft a xref:viewing-resources/grid.adoc[].
|
|
Through that block, you can modify your storage (which will modify the data on your disks).
|
|
- Before crafting any of these devices, you'll first craft a xref:networking/controller.adoc[], which ties the entire network together.
|
|
|
|
== A minimal setup
|
|
|
|
=== Step 0: Install Refined Storage (if necessary)
|
|
|
|
Ensure that the modpack that you are playing contains Refined Storage.
|
|
You can validate this by checking the modlist of your modpack.
|
|
|
|
If your modpack doesn't have Refined Storage installed, or you are creating your own modpack, xref:how-to-install.adoc[check the installation instructions here].
|
|
|
|
It might also be helpful to know that Refined Storage xref:how-to-install.adoc#_optional_dependencies[has integration with various other mods].
|
|
|
|
=== Step 1: The Controller
|
|
|
|
Craft the xref:networking/controller.adoc[].
|
|
The xref:networking/controller.adoc[] is the "core" of your storage network.
|
|
You'll be connecting all the Refined Storage devices to this block.
|
|
|
|
The xref:networking/controller.adoc[] needs energy.
|
|
More specifically, Forge Energy or RF.
|
|
Lots of mods that generate energy support this.
|
|
|
|
=== Step 2: Storage and accessing your items
|
|
|
|
Craft a xref:storage/disk-drive.adoc[] and a xref:storage/1k-storage-disk.adoc[] to store your items.
|
|
|
|
You can craft a higher tier of xref:storage/index.adoc#_storage_disks[storage disk], but for simplicity sake we're going for a 1k, which can store 1.000 items.
|
|
|
|
Put the xref:storage/1k-storage-disk.adoc[] in the xref:storage/disk-drive.adoc[] and craft a xref:viewing-resources/grid.adoc[] to access your items.
|
|
|
|
Connect those blocks to the xref:networking/controller.adoc[] with xref:networking/cable.adoc[], but you can also just place them next to each other in any direction.
|
|
|
|
=== Step 3: Viewing your storage
|
|
|
|
You are now able to insert and extract items in the xref:viewing-resources/grid.adoc[].
|
|
|
|
== Disks in block form
|
|
|
|
You can also use the various xref:storage/index.adoc#_storage_blocks[storage blocks] instead of xref:storage/index.adoc#_storage_disks[storage disks]. |
