[HELP] Making A wire(Like IC2) To Transfer Data. Still Unsolved!

[gmod622]

The title explans pretty much everything, just need help to guide me into the right direction. I want it to be a wire( like the wires in IC2) to transfer data to one place to another. If you can help that would be GREAT!

 

Reguards,

You would have to "bind" a tile entity to the wire. With that tile entity, you can use it's NBT methods to write how much data the wire has stored up.

 

You could also use the onBlockPlacedBy method in Block to connect to other wires.

OK thanks, but dont i have to made a different model for every turn, or swich of angle, or does it do it for me. And How would i MOVE the data from one wire to the other

[TLHPoE]

I would recommend looking into how spawner's spawn their mobs (for the tick)

 

Then just look at the chest's code for the unifying with other wires.
