ConnectedTank

by turtton

ConnectedTank lets players place fluid storage tanks next to each other so they link into one larger pool, with a single shared capacity for the whole group.

FabricNeoForgeClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.21.8 – 26.1

What it does

Tanks are connectable and upgradable, and a tank placed beside another joins it as one group. Tanks that touch each other merge their capacity into one shared fluid pool, meaning the whole group holds a single fluid type, and any tank in the group can supply or accept it. Base capacity is 32 buckets per tank by default, and that value can be changed in the config, which sets the base multiplier for each tank's capacity.

Visual indicators show which sides of a tank are linked to a neighbor, and the internal borders between connected tanks become invisible, so a group reads as one block. Installation needs Fabric API, Fabric Language Kotlin and Kotlin for Forge as required dependencies, depending on the loader. ConnectedTank runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is open source under the MIT License and is published for Fabric and NeoForge, with builds covering 1.21.8 – 26.1.

Key features

  1. Connectable fluid tanks

    Tanks placed next to each other form a connected group that works as one storage unit.

  2. Shared capacity

    The capacity of every tank in a connected group merges into a single fluid pool.

  3. Upgradable storage

    Tanks can be upgraded to raise their storage, and the upgrade applies within the connected group.

  4. Visible connections

    Indicators on each tank show which sides are linked, and the borders between linked tanks are hidden.

How it compares

Full comparison

Tank Storage is open source under the MIT License, runs on Fabric and NeoForge and targets 1.20.1 – 1.21.1, so it covers older game versions than ConnectedTank. Drawer Tanks is also open source under the MIT License and runs on Fabric and NeoForge for 26.1 – 26.3, overlapping ConnectedTank's newest versions. Create Train Tank Mod is not open source, is published under All rights reserved for 1.21.1 – 1.21.8, and is a train-focused fluid tank mod rather than a connected storage system.
