Adding circuit Options to Logistic Storage Chests?

Post by erinas »

Hi guys I want to add 2 circuit options to a logistic storage chest GUI and can't quite wrap my had around how to.

The options I want to implement are the same like on filtered inserters:
- "to disable the chest accepting items from the logistic network on circuit condition"
- "to change the filter of the chest on circuit signal".


But it seems I am to new to modding in factorio to find those options in the factorio base code or in similar mods.
I learned a lot from the tutorial pages and reading codes from other modders helped to for my first mods but for this mod it seems to go to deep.

So has anyone tips on where and what to search for or how you would manage this?

You are need the control stage and some entity like a lamp, that can read signals from wires.
Read signals from that lamp, write it to your chest as item request.
