Simple Terminals
Simple Terminals adds a Crafting Terminal block that gives access to storage connected to it, with a scrollable item browser and a built-in crafting grid.
What it does
A Crafting Terminal is placed next to a storage block such as a chest or a modded storage container, and a right-click opens one interface over the attached inventory. Items are browsed with a scroll, and crafting happens in a built-in grid whose output updates in real time, using ingredients taken from the connected storage. The mod also works with Storage Controller from Sophisticated Storage, so a whole storage setup managed by a controller can be reached through the same terminal.
The terminal is meant for storage networks where a large inventory makes browsing hard, since the scrollable list keeps every stored item within one screen. Simple Terminals is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, and needs to be installed on the server and every player's client because the environment is client and server. Builds cover 1.20.1 – 26.2 across 3 release versions, and the source code is available under the Apache License 2.0, so the mod is open source.
Key features
Crafting from connected storage
Recipes are assembled from items held in any storage attached to the terminal, without moving them by hand.
Scrollable item browser
A large scrollable list shows stored items, so bigger storage systems can be searched without leaving the screen.
Built-in crafting grid
A crafting grid sits inside the terminal interface, with its output shown as the ingredients change.
Storage Controller support
Storage set up through a Storage Controller from Sophisticated Storage can be accessed from the terminal.
