Aeslotlocks

Aeslotlocks is an addon mod for Applied Energistics 2 (AE2) designed to provide customizable slot locking capabilities. It prevents players from accidentally moving items in or out of specific AE2 interface slots via Shift+Click or Space-Click (inventory sorting/moving).

✨ Features

• Semantic Group Blocking: Lock entire groups of slots (e.g., the entire Player Hotbar or the AE Storage grid) from being interacted with via quick-move actions.
• Fine-Grained Slot Blocking: Lock specific slot indexes within a group (e.g., lock only the first slot of the hotbar).
• Debug Tool: Built-in functionality to help you easily find the internal IDs required for configuration.

⚙️ Configuration

The configuration file allows you to define exactly which slots should be locked.

1. Block Entire Groups (blocked_semantic)

Disables all item movement (both Shift+Click and Space-move) for entire slot semantic groups.

• Type: String List
• Side: Pure Client-Side. Does not require the mod to be on the server.
• Reference: IDs correspond to appeng.menu.SlotSemantics.
• Example:

  # Blocks interaction with the entire storage grid and the player's hotbar
  blocked_semantic = ["STORAGE", "PLAYER_HOTBAR"]

2. Block Specific Slots (blocked_semantic_slots)

Provides fine-grained movement blocking for specific slot indexes within a semantic group.

• Format: 'SEMANTIC_ID:index1,index2...'
• Logic & Requirements:
  1. Shift+Click: Works Pure Client-Side.
  2. Space-move: Fine-grained blocking (index-based) REQUIRES the mod to be installed on the Server. If the mod is not on the server, space-moving items might bypass the lock for specific indexes.
• Example:

  # Blocks only the first (index 0) and second (index 1) slots of the hotbar
  blocked_semantic_slots = ["PLAYER_HOTBAR:0,1"]

3. Debug Mode (clicked_info)

A helper utility to find the correct IDs and Indexes.

• Type: Boolean
• Default: false
• Usage: Set this to true. When you click a slot in an AE2 interface in-game, the mod will print the Semantic ID and the Slot Index to the log/chat. Use this info to fill out the config, then disable it.

📦 Installation & Dependencies

• Required: Applied Energistics 2 (AE2)
• Client: Required for all locking features.
• Server: Required only if you want to block Space-move actions on specific slot indexes (defined in blocked_semantic_slots).
