Create: Item Drawers
by Emythiel
Create: Item Drawers is a NeoForge storage addon for Create that adds item drawers with a Create-style look, and it is licensed under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only.
What it does
Item drawers hold a set number of item stacks in one block, and the mod's settings control how many stacks each of its three drawer types can keep. Base capacity is measured in stacks, so a base of 32 holds 32 stacks: 2048 cobblestone (64 per stack) or 512 ender pearls (16 per stack). Upgrade multipliers can be adjusted in the same settings screen.
Drawers can be locked to a single item template, which keeps that template even after the slot is emptied and stops other items from entering. Void mode deletes any excess items inserted into a drawer, which helps prevent overflow. The settings also cover how far away items are counted, whether counts and icons are shown, and a slowness debuff for players who keep items stored in their inventory.
Create: Item Drawers requires Create, and it works with the drawer storage addon Create. Files are published for NeoForge only, for the single game version 1.21.1, and the mod runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. The source code and issue tracker are public.
Key features
Three drawer types
Each drawer type has its own base capacity, which the settings can change, giving servers control over storage size.
Lock mode
A locked drawer keeps its item template when emptied and refuses other items until the lock is removed.
Void mode
When enabled, items beyond the drawer's capacity are deleted on insertion instead of left overflowing.
Upgrade multipliers
Drawer upgrades raise capacity, and the multipliers applied by each upgrade can be set in the configuration.
