Carry a storage block/node without breaking it. you can carry a chest, a barrel.. just about anything that has an inventory.
how?
Hold sneak then right_click(place button) with an empty_hand to pickup/place down the storage containers
NOTE: does not work with mineclonia, they are completely overriding the hand(easy fix on their end). (does work with voxelibre/mineclone2)*

great for moving
Tested with mineclone2. Works great, even with trash cans. But I was able to “steal” smart shops and also chests from protected buildings. Protected by areas mod. Maybe your mod is only suitable for single player mode?
Very interesting and clever
Congratulations! It works perfectly even with "Treasure Chest" mod. I'll be testing it at my server Thank you for it!
I really do have hands!
This is a great mod, not only is it really cool to pick up those chests, (they even visibly appear in front of you) but also it is really functional.
I even realised that you can move e.g. chests with ores from your ore storage to an automatic ore smelter! (If the image doesn't load then right click the text below and click on 'show image in new tab' or something like that if you're on desktop)
TIP: If you try to search for this mod in minetest and see 1 billion pages, then search up the technical name
i_have_handsinstead.Note: The image here is a link to a propietary website. It claims it doesn't collect anything about you when you don't sign up, but it's still nonfree. Do you know about a free/libre image hosting website (similar to e.g. imgur or this one, postimages)?
Drawers support please!
This is one awesome mod! a deffinitive must have! but any chance you can add support for the drawers mod? it's an amazing item storage mod, the "I have hands" does SEEM to work! at first I thought it didn't, I looked at it and attempted to pick it up from the front but it didn't work. I then attempted to pick it up from the side, IT WORKED! almost... when I went to place it back down the inventory that was in the container was gone! I then attempted to test what would happen if I exited the game then logged back in, the items DID come back! but the image of the items that would display on this container node would be invisible for some odd reason... it would come back if I made a withdraw then put it back in... further more, once replaced and if you were to put another item in the empty slot, it would completely overwrite whatever was in that slot upon re-logging back in.
other than that and maybe a very small, easily fixable issue I encountered with the worm farm... this mod is pretty cool! MUCH better than that wrench from that other mod I was using... but if you could PLEASE fix the issue that it has with the drawers mod, I would be very thankful! that might be the ONLY thing from making this perfect otherwise!
The only bad thing.
Apart from the delay between actions (Because this is a feature of the engine), one drawback can be highlighted. The current item is not displayed in the first person.
Great
I was confused at first because there's no first person indication of carrying the chest but it works fine.
good but
I WANT DO THIS WITH ALL BLOCKS ! 😂
