Linked Chests

by Fuzs

Linked Chests lets a chest, pouch or barrel share its contents with every other chest set to the same channel, wherever it is placed in the world.

FabricNeoForgeClient and serverMozilla Public License 2.0Open source1.21.1 – 26.3

What it does

Each linked chest is given a channel made from three dye colours, chosen by crafting dyes into the block or by configuring it directly. Any chest on the same channel opens the same inventory, so items stored at a base, outpost, or farm can be reached from anywhere without walking back to one storage room. A linked pouch carries a chosen channel with the player, which keeps the system usable while exploring or moving items between locations.

Servers that run it need every player to install it too. It requires Fabric API on Fabric, Forge Config API Port on Fabric, and Puzzles Lib on Fabric and NeoForge. Files cover 1.21.1 and the 26.x releases, with 15 release versions in total, and the code is released under the Mozilla Public License 2.0, so it is open source.

Key features

  1. Shared channel inventories

    Chests placed anywhere in the world that share a channel open the same inventory, with no limit on distance.

  2. Dye-based channels

    Each channel is set with three dye colours, which allows a large number of separate storage networks.

  3. Linked pouch

    A pouch bound to a channel gives portable access to that inventory, so the player can reach the storage from any place.

  4. Channel copying in one action

    A sneak-use of a linked pouch on a linked chest binds the chest to the pouch's channel at once.

  5. Channel colours on display

    Each block shows its selected dye colours, so a channel can be identified at a glance.

  6. Hopper compatibility

    Linked chests accept hoppers and other automation, so items can be moved into and out of a network by machines.

Questions

Does Linked Chests need Fabric API on Fabric?

Yes. On Fabric, Fabric API and Forge Config API Port are required, and Puzzles Lib is required on Fabric and NeoForge. All three must be installed next to Linked Chests.

Does the server need Linked Chests?

Yes. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too.

How is a chest added to a channel?

A chest is set to a channel by crafting it with three dyes or by configuring it directly. A linked pouch can also bind a chest with a sneak-use.

Can the mod be configured in-game?

Configuration is possible in-game through Mod Menu. Manual editing uses separate client, common and server TOML files in the config folder.
