Applied Stalin Sorting

by yuuki1293

Applied Stalin Sorting replaces the sorting engine used by Applied Energistics 2 storage networks, so item sorting in those networks runs faster.

NeoForgeClient-side onlyMIT LicenseOpen source1.21.1

What it does

Applied Stalin Sorting swaps out the engine that sorts items inside Applied Energistics 2 storage, and the author describes the change as a faster sorting process. The mod is client-side only, so only the player's game needs it and a server can run without it. Applied Energistics 2 is an optional dependency, and the mod has no required dependencies beyond NeoForge. Files are published for NeoForge 1.21.1 with version 1.0.0, released 2026-06-23, under the MIT License, and the source code is open source.
