Make Machine Public But Not Breakable?

[FriendlyGamer]

Is there a way for me as a server admin to do this?

I have Areas installed but that only make it FULLY protected.

I just want people to be able to input/output from the machines but not be able to "steal" the whole machines.

Is this possible within the Technic Plus mod or with Areas/another mod?

Thanks very much in advance!

Put a chest in one of the upgrade slots on MV machines to make the non-upgrade slots public. The self contained injector has a private/public button. Both features are also available to players wanting to create public workshops.

Thank so much for refreshing my memory on the chest upgrade since I couldn't find that option as an upgrade on the docs so I forgotten about this until you told me it's just a chest that is required. :)
