Cloud Storage
Cloud Storage gives Forge players item storage that can be reached from any point in the world, with extraction and insertion handled by sided blocks.
What it does
A cloud storage network keeps items in one place and lets a player or machine reach them from anywhere in the world, similar to an Access Terminal. Items are pulled out with an extract block that takes everything from its chosen side, or an insert block that places only the chosen items. A GUI on the block lets the owner select which items pass through a filter.
The mod also moves power and other energy types through the same network. Extract blocks draw RF from Energy Cells and EU from batboxes, CESUs, MFEs and MFSUs, and can hold a large amount in cloud storage. Insert blocks feed RF into machines, send EU at a machine's maximum EU/t capacity, and convert EU and RF into MJ for machines that use it. A side must be set to an output mode, and placing more than one insert on a side of a machine can cause it to explode.
Cloud Storage runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is published for Forge only, with builds for 1.6.4, 1.7.2 and 1.7.10, and the latest file is 59.0.1 for 1.7.10. The mod is released under the MIT License and is not open source. It requires Immibis Core.
Key features
Network-wide item storage
Items stored in the cloud can be accessed from any point in the world without a physical chest link.
Sided item extraction
An extract block pulls everything from its chosen side, with the output mode set on that side.
Filtered item insertion
An insert block places only the items selected in its filter GUI into the attached machine or inventory.
Energy transfer
RF and EU can be extracted from supported sources, stored in the cloud and used to power machines.

Use cases
Remote machine supply
A factory can draw RF or EU from storage kept elsewhere in the world, so generators do not need to sit beside the machines.
Shared item access
Players who build a central cache can reach stored items from distant bases through the same command-based access.
Who it’s for: Forge players on Minecraft 1.7.10 or older who run tech-style factories and want storage and energy transfer that does not depend on distance. Server owners who want the same network for multiplayer bases will need the mod on the server as well.
