Networked Chests
by xJenny69
Networked Chests lets players reach storage they have linked to an item from anywhere, without walking back to the chest.
What it does
Shift right-clicking a chest with an item links that chest to the item. Using the item afterwards opens the linked chest from any distance, so storage stays reachable across a base or a whole world. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Files are published for Forge only, for Minecraft 1.20.1, with 0.2.0 as the latest file from 2025-05-02.
Key features
Remote chest access
A linked chest can be opened from anywhere in the world by using the item it is bound to.
Item-based linking
Shift right-clicking a chest while holding an item binds that chest to the item in one step.
Access by right-click
Right-clicking with the linked item opens the chest's contents without needing to be near it.

How it compares
Chest Transport Reloaded is also a Forge mod for 1.20.1 with client and server environment, but it is licensed under All rights reserved and is not open source. Chest Inv Sort is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later and covers 1.20.4 – 1.20.6 instead, so it does not overlap in version. Shulker Inventory Access is a client-side only mod, so players can install it without the server running it.
