Smart Observer

Usage[edit | edit source]

If the Smart Observer is placed with the front facing a container such as a Mechanical Belt, Funnel or Fluid Pipe, it will emit a Redstone signal when an item is detected inside. A Smart Observer will also emit a signal if the block placed in front of it matches the filter.

If a Filter is applied to the Smart Observer, it will only emit a redstone signal when the item in the filter is detected.

Display Link[edit | edit source]

A Display Link can be used to display the inventory the Smart Observer observes. There are four settings:

  • Amount of Matching Items - Displays a number corresponding to matching items. It counts everything in the inventory if nothing is applied to the Filter.
  • List Matching Items - Displays the name of the items and the corresponding number of each item. It counts everything in the inventory if nothing is applied to the Filter.
    • Shortened - Shortens numbers above 999, e.g 1280 becomes 1k.
    • Full Number - Displays the full number.
  • List Matching Fluids - Lists the name of the fluids and corresponding number in milibuckets or buckets. It counts everything if nothing is applied to the Filter.
    • Shortened - Shortens mB above 999 to B (Buckets.)
    • Full Number - Lists all numbers in mB (milibuckets.)
  • Amount of Matching Fluids - Displays a number corresponding to matching fluids. It counts everything if nothing is applied to the Filter.
