Building Gadget Refined Storage Bridge

by r4ai

Building Gadget Refined Storage Bridge lets Building Gadgets 2 draw from and return items and fluids to a Refined Storage 2 network through a bridge block.

NeoForgeClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.21.1 – 26.1

What it does

The mod adds a refined storage bridge block that is placed on a Refined Storage 2 network through a cable. A block is bound to an inventory target, and Building Gadgets 2 can then insert and extract items and fluids from that network while placing or exchanging blocks. Blocks removed with a gadget are returned to the network. The connection is made through the official Refined Storage 2 API, and only the ItemHandler capability is used for the link; other interfaces are not supported. Right-clicking the bridge with an empty hand shows its current connection state.

The bridge stops operating immediately when power is lost or the cable is cut, so it fails closed. Actual item insertion and extraction continue normally, though a slight delay can appear before a stack shows its new count, sort order or other changes in the GUI. Inventory layout rebuilds are batched to at most once per second during continuous network updates. The mod is written in Kotlin and requires Refined Storage 2 and Building Gadgets 2, and it runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. It is released under the MIT License and is open source; its source code and issue tracker are public.

Key features

  1. Network bridge block

    A bridge block attaches to a Refined Storage 2 network through a cable and serves as the link for Building Gadgets 2.

  2. Inventory binding

    A bridge is bound to a chosen inventory target, so gadgets draw from and return to that specific storage.

  3. Connection state display

    Right-clicking the bridge with an empty hand shows whether the bridge is currently connected.

  4. Fail-closed behavior

    When power is lost or the cable is cut, the bridge stops at once instead of continuing with stale data.

How it compares

Full comparison

ae2linkrs is open source under the MIT License on NeoForge for 1.21.1 – 1.21.11, and it works on either side, and neither side needs it. Refined Schematics is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v2.1 only, on NeoForge for 1.21.1, and it runs on client and server. Both alternatives cover different integrations, so neither replaces the bridge for Building Gadgets 2.
