Magic Storage Network connects storage units into one network for Forge on Minecraft 1.12.2, inspired by Terraria's Magic Storage.

What it does

Storage units in the network are linked to a central Storage Heart, so items in every connected unit can be reached from one place. Units come in 8 tiers, each holding between 40 and 600 slots, and the network can be expanded by adding more of them. From a single terminal, a player reaches every item in the network, filters by name, tooltip text or mod ID, orders results by count, display name or source mod, and keeps the last query even after deleting characters.

Crafting stations, anvils, enchanting tables, furnaces, brewing stands, portable remotes and JEI integration can all draw from the network. A 3-state autofill key replenishes consumed crafting ingredients, fuels and exact recipe requirements from network storage, and wireless remotes reach storage and crafting matrices within 200 blocks or across dimensions. Storage units expose Forge item handler capabilities, so hoppers and item pipes can feed them, and units can be picked up and moved with their contents intact.

Magic Storage Network is a Forge mod for 1.12.2 and runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and is open source, with source code and an issue tracker public.

Key features

  1. Unified storage network

    Modular storage units link to a central Storage Heart, forming one searchable pool of items.

  3. Automatic ingredient replenishment

    The autofill key refills consumed crafting ingredients, fuels and exact recipe requirements from the network.

  4. Wireless remotes

    Portable remotes open storage and crafting matrices remotely, with a key that opens bound remotes instantly.

  5. Dynamic JEI transfer

    Recipe transfer works across custom modded stations with focused item instance matching.
