Tom's Simple Storage

One screen for every chest in your base.

What it is

A faithful server-side build of Tom's Simple Storage by tom5454 — the vanilla-styled answer to "which chest did I put it in?". Wire your chests into a network, then browse and search every item in them from one terminal. Nothing to install: it all runs on the server.

The three pieces you need

  1. Inventory Connector — the heart of it. Place it touching your chests; it reaches 16 blocks and chains through any chests that touch each other.
  2. Storage Terminal — place it against the connector (or against the chests) and right-click for a searchable grid of everything on the network.
  3. A Crafting Terminal does the same and adds a crafting grid that pulls straight from storage.

Every recipe is unlocked in your recipe book the moment you join.

Growing the network

  • Inventory Trim — links chests that do not touch each other.
  • Inventory Cable + Cable Connector — run storage in from far away, past the normal 16-block reach.
  • Inventory Proxy, Open Crate, Filing Cabinet (512 of a single item), and the Inventory Interface, which lets hoppers feed the whole network.
  • Level Emitter — emits redstone when an item count crosses a threshold, for auto-farms.
  • Wireless Terminal — open your network from a distance; the advanced one reaches further, and a nearby beacon extends it further still.
  • Item, Tag and Polymorphic Filters plus the Inventory Configurator for fine control.

Tips

  • /ts list shows every block and item; /ts info identifies whatever block you are looking at.
  • If a terminal says it is not wired to anything, it could not find a connector — make sure it touches the connector or a chest the connector reaches.
  • Everything is craftable in survival, with the same recipes as the original mod.
