How would I push energy to modded cables/machines?
I know using:

te.hasCapability(CapabilityEnergy.ENERGY, side)

I can check if it can receive energy, but I cannot push to it as I do not know how I would.

Current 1.12.2 energy types that I know of (and would like to be able to push to):

Tesla

RF

FE

 

I know how to push to FE, I can just check if it implements IEnergyStorage and call the push method, but what about RF and Tesla? I would also like it to work with EnderIO, but I have no idea how to add support for EnderIO either because the conduits don't have any energy methods or implement any capability interfaces.

Bumping, after looking through EnderIO it seems that it uses a pathing system, so energy is never stored on the cables. I found the generators in the code, but can't find how it pushes power. (Do the pipes do that automatically?).

        IEnergyStorage energyStorage = te.getCapability(CapabilityEnergy.ENERGY, EnumFacing.NORTH);
        if (energyStorage.canReceive()) {
            int max = Math.max(speicher, 64000);
                int amount = energyStorage.receiveEnergy(max, true);
                if (amount > 0) {
                    amount = energyStorage.receiveEnergy(max, false);
                    speicher -= max;
                }
        }

 

simple example.
