Usage
The deployer can be given items to use with machines or by right clicking the items into the hand.
The filter on the face of the deployer can be changed so it will only use certain items. If it has no filter, the deployer will transfer the item to an extra inventory slot if it fails to use it the first time, ready to use the next item once the extra slot is clear. The filter is also essential when using a deployer in a moving structure such as those made by a Cart Assembler or Mechanical Bearing.
The deployer has 2 inventory slots; the held item and one extra internal slot. As well as unusable items, items harvested by the deployer will be transferred to the extra slot to be removed by machines, during which time the deployer will stall. Items cannot be extracted from the extra slot directly by the player.
The deployer simulates right clicks by default. It can be adjusted to left click instead with a Wrench.
