    I did lose over 20 starter kit to day because of ME storage system believed they was normal chest. This things can happen. No refund as the say in Badlands 2 :p

    I would like some info on the chest name or when you mark the chest that suggest you to not storage your starter kit in a mod inventory and to storage it in minecraft inventory.

    Well, just don't put kits inside any storage system that you can pull items for directly into a crafting bench for crafting, since named chests work the same as unnamed chests for crafting recipes. Best solution is to redeem the kit and store the contents, that way you cannot accidentally use them in a recipe.

    I think we have all made mistakes with our kits at one time or another. I remember a time when I went to open the chest containing a kit, but I did it too close to a vanilla chest.. and it connected bye bye kit!

    Ooof, that hurts... I did not realize these things could happen. Would changing it to something like a bag be possible? I'm not sure how the current system works in terms of the mod used or how difficult changing the item that spawns the kit would be, so maybe changing it would be unfeasible, but having someone pay for a kit and then having the kit get eaten up by a bug seems like a pretty big problem.

    Could something to this effect be added to the kit's description in-game (preferably very visibly, i.e. using red letters) so people know not to do this?

    We generally do chests because nearly every pack has a chest by default in it.. though there is that one pack yes I'm looking at you SevTech that made us change them. I would assume we could change them around to be something else or have labels on them, but I'm not brimming with confidence, lets see if @Jitrid wants to answer that :)

    Technically any item can be used as a kit, because any item (even air, lets not do that though because that's an empty hand so that would just spam a kit every time to bare-handedly click something) can be right clicked as an action.

    The best idea would be a vanilla item like a chest! oh wait... maybe something else.
    So possible? Yes. Plausible? Not sure, we would have to have an internal discussion with the team.


    I hope I answered your question Wynd,
    Kind wishes,
    Jitrid

    If i member ME drives have info about not putting them in bags why not make same for kit chests - i lost few too from NEI/JEI crafting autofill recently.

    "Kit chests can be used in autocrafting machines or NEI/JEI recipe autofill - BE CAREFULL!"

    Maybe add something like this?

    Wonder if we can put a warning in the shop? The item is still a chest and making a item warning will put it on all chests.
