A Redstone Requester allows demand to be issued through redstone logic, connecting inventory shortages or scheduled systems with package fulfilment.
Applications
- Restock a production input when a monitored buffer falls low.
- Trigger supply parcels for a station kitchen or workshop.
- Integrate request conditions with display indicators so players understand why a line is active.
Addressed delivery
- Packages turn item movement into labelled delivery: stock is packed, routed and received at an intended endpoint.
- Design parcel infrastructure as an extension of warehouses and station markets, not as a replacement for player-built shops.
Debugging parcel flow
- Check stock availability, packaging, address matching and route clearance in that order.
- Use readable names and accessible endpoints so deliveries remain maintainable in multiplayer.
Packages and stock-aware delivery
Create 6 introduces a more expressive parcel-and-stock workflow. Storage can be exposed to a network, requests can become addressed packages, and those parcels can be moved through visible machinery to a receiving point.
This does not have to erase shops or player jobs. In this pack it works best behind the scenes: a station warehouse or workshop prepares goods, while a player-built storefront remains the place where commerce happens.
Diagnosing deliveries
When a parcel does not arrive, inspect the chain in order: is the stock available, was a package formed, does it have the intended address, can its route carry it, and is the receiving endpoint accessible?
