Cryo Cells!
Cryo Cells! lets players capture mobs into craftable cells and store them in a cryo-fridge, keeping their data intact until the mob is released.
What it does
Captured mobs are kept in cells that stack up to 64 and can be picked up again with shift and right-click. Cells are made from packed ice and blue ice, so the recipes sit early in the progression. The author tested the cells with several other mods without problems.
A second block, the cryo-fridge, holds up to 81 empty cells or 81 full cells, and the two kinds can be combined inside it. The mod preserves each mob's NBT data, so a released mob keeps its saved state. The author notes that other capture cube mods have trouble with certain mobs and with placing them down again, and that Mo Creatures forks and ports are treated differently. The mod is for players who want to store mobs in bulk without building their own sorting setup.
Cryo Cells! is published for Forge and NeoForge, with a file for 1.20.1 only. Both sides need it, and the code is not open source; the mod is released under All rights reserved.
Key features
Craftable mob cells
Cells capture a mob and stack up to 64 in one slot, which keeps inventories compact.
Cryo-fridge storage
The cryo-fridge stores up to 81 empty or full cells, so a large collection fits in one block.
Mob data preserved
NBT data is kept when a captured mob is released, so the mob returns in the state it was stored in.
Ice-based recipes
Cells are crafted from packed ice, blue ice and similar ice blocks, tying the mod to the cold theme.
