Smart Chest Network

Smart Chest Network Smart Chest Network is a wireless centralized storage and inventory management mod for Minecraft 1.20.1 (Forge & Fabric). It allows you to control your existing storage units through a single interface without the need to set up complex pipe or cable systems.

Core Features Centralized Search GUI: Right-clicking the Network Controller block lists items from all connected chests in a single, Vanilla-style screen.

Dynamic Item Highlighting (ESP): Typing an item name in the search bar creates a visual outline around the physical chests containing that item, which is visible even through walls.

Remote Extraction: Items clicked within the GUI are directly extracted from their physical chests and transferred to your inventory.

Virtual Crafting Table: An integrated 3×3 crafting grid allows for direct item crafting using the materials available across your network.

Blocks & Upgrades The system’s functionality can be expanded by inserting upgrade modules into the dedicated slots within the Network Controller:

Network Controller: The core of the system. By default, it indexes all storage units (chests, barrels, etc.) within a 32-block radius. It is heavily optimized; instead of scanning every tick, it updates data only when a change occurs in an inventory.

Range Upgrade: Extends the network’s scanning radius beyond the standard limit.

Interdimensional Link Upgrade: Grants access to the main network from different dimensions, such as the Nether or the End, provided the chunk containing the network controller remains loaded by the server.

Smart Sorter Upgrade: Automatically sorts and distributes bulk items deposited into the system interface to chests already containing similar items.
