[1.7.10] Request: Locus compatibility with Gadomany's Condenser

[LordPinkerton]

Would it be possible to add compatibility for the Essentia Locus to read and interact with Gadomany's Essentia Condenser? I'm uncertain how the condenser stores the information other than it seems similar to the Essentia Reservoir, which the Locus can read. I have tried using the Crystalline Eye on every block of the condenser, even all three of them simultaneously, without it being able to read it. I can only assume this is a compatibility issue at this point.

Automagy attempts to interact with other mods' essentia sources in the ways which are standard for Thaumcraft. It also includes a basic API that allows integration when that way is insufficient. In some cases, I've done the integration myself or even made special hardcoded integrations, but it would be nice if other mods used the API since that's what it's there for.

I'm not sure how Gadomancy's essentia condenser is coded, but most likely, the simplest solution would be for it to implement my IEssentiaLocusReadable interface -- and, ideally, IAspectContainerWithMax as well. Those interfaces can be found here.

If Gadomancy isn't going to be so updated and there is enough demand, I will consider doing something on my end -- but I've been meaning to update Automagy for ages and haven't found the time to do so yet, so don't hold your breath.

Thank you for taking the time to respond to this. I doubt makeoo will update Gadomancy, as he has been inactive since it's last release years ago. I don't know how much demand there is going to be for this particular issue other than a few others I've seen post on forums or on Gadomancy's issue tracker. Anything you could do would be greatly appreciated, but understandable if you never get around to it. If not, I might just try my own hand at making some sort of go between solution. But, I'd still like to take the time regardless to thank you for what I consider the absolute best addition to Thaumcraft 4.

Thanks for the kind words! :)

I'd certainly like to take a look at this for you. If only I weren't buried under so many more urgent projects right now.... I'll put it on my list, anyway.
