Unable to extract items from mekanism machines

[jvdon]

Description

In Minecraft versions newer than 1.16.5, XNet is unable to extract items from Mekanism machines.

Details

I reported this issue to the Mekanism team, and they confirmed that the problem appears to be on XNet’s side.
The issue only affects item extraction — both energy and fluid insertion/extraction work as expected.

When the Mekanism machine is configured to output to its left side, extraction works correctly.

Since this behavior doesn’t occur with other mods (e.g., Pipez, Create, or LaserIO), it seems likely that the issue lies within XNet.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Place a Mekanism machine (e.g., Crusher or Enrichment Chamber).

2. Configure one of its sides to output items.

3. Connect that side to an XNet connector.

4. Create an XNet channel to extract items from the machine and insert them into an inventory (e.g., chest).

---

Expected Behavior

XNet should extract items from the Mekanism machine as configured.

---

Actual Behavior

XNet does not extract items from the Mekanism machine unless the machine is configured to output to its left side.
