The Retrieval Node (Items) is a block added by Extra Utilities. It is part of its item transport system and is used to pull items into an inventory, collecting them through a system of connected Transfer Pipes. The Retrieval Node (Items) can have upgrades applied to it, by putting them into the lower bar of its inventory.
Recipe
Usage
Retrieval Node (Items) are used in an item transport system along with the many different varieties of Transfer Pipes. The Node can carry up to one stack of items in its internal buffer, and searches along the attached Transfer Pipes for the nearest inventory. An item can end up in the internal buffer by either the player manually placing it there, or the Retrieval Node taking it out of an inventory connected to it.
The Retrieval Node (Items) also accept upgrades. These can be applied by placing the crafted upgrades in one of the six slots on the bottom of the GUI. The following are the applicable upgrades and their effects:
Upgrade | Effect |
---|---|
Increases the speed that the Node searches for inventories. The speed increases with the number of Speed Upgrades installed. | |
This upgrade allows the Retrieval Node to grab a stack of items from an inventory at a time instead of one item at a time. Only one of this Upgrade will work. | |
The item inside the internal buffer is not consumed when placed in an inventory with this upgrade applied. |
