is it possible to do something like this? (in an other way, this gives a crash to desktop!!!) if not, is it even possible to add the logistics network to the assembling machine directly?

if that is not possible, i would like to add it mod interface request

it is not, combining types would be cool, but I think that it wouldnt be a practicall thing to make.
The custom entity type would be better

And from what i just saw, its probably not possible yet to make an custom type?

No, though it's planned (eventually)

you could use a smart inserter to only let the assembly machine work if the required value for the smart inserter is true.
so you basicly just conected an asembly machine to the logic network

i never said logic network, i said logistics network!

I wanted to create an assembling machine that is also an requester and provider chest. that way to items go directly into the machine, instead of the chests.
but alas, its not possible at this point, hope so in the future.

I think this is ok. Because your wanted device doesn't look moving. The robots just bring the stuff in and take it away. Boring.
