Server Storage
by BRNSystems
Server Storage gives a server an AE2-inspired storage network that runs entirely on the server, so players join without installing anything.
What it does
Items are kept in hard drives placed in a drive container block, and a storage controller scans the attached storage bus and shows the items it holds. Networked inventory and storage interfaces connect inventories, inputs and outputs to that network, and a hopper can insert items into them. Because the mod is server-side only, clients need nothing installed to use the network.
Operations are simple to read: a left click takes a stack, shift with a left click takes as much as fits in the inventory, and a right click takes half a stack. Shift-clicking an item sends it into the inventory. Warning: reindexing a bus is recursive, so very large storage systems can lag the server. Server owners can disable parts of the mod with three game rules, which exist because of a game-breaking bug. The mod depends on Fabric API and Polymer, is open source under the MIT License, and is published for Fabric across 1.20.6 – 1.21.8.
Key features
Hard drive container
A block accepts hard drives, and the drives hold the items the network stores.
Networked interfaces
Inventory and storage interfaces connect outside inventories to the network, for input and output.
Storage controller
Across every drive attached to the storage bus, the storage controller tallies the stored items and shows them on its display.
Book export
Shift with a right click on a written book overwrites it with the sorted contents of the storage.
Item count in lore
Hovering over an ItemStack shows the true item count in its lore.
