OmniChest
by ppapkajiwara
OmniChest lets players search for an item across every chest they have opened, and the mod is the first inter-chest network search in Minecraft's history.
What it does
A search reports which chest holds an item, how many are stored there, and how far away it is. Its position can be marked with an in-world pin and beacon beam so it is simple to find. Searches also cover shulker boxes, ender chests and other nested containers.
Chest handling is extended with sorting, depositing and stacking tools. A chest's contents can be sorted into meaningful categories, items can be deposited only into chests that already hold that type, and half-stacks of one item can be merged with a single click in the inventory. Slots can be locked, and important items can be protected from sorting and deposits.
The mod is client-side only, so servers run without it and players install it alone. Its feature toggles, sorting speed, search radius and visual effects are set through Mod Menu and Cloth Config buttons. The code is released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, and the mod is for Fabric, with files for 1.21.10 – 26.2.
