Storage Upgrade
by 300f20t
Storage Upgrade gives a player a network of storage blocks that a controller reads from, with a terminal screen for browsing and moving items.
What it does
A storage controller forms the center of a network, and every other unit connected to it is read as part of one inventory. Storage input and output blocks move resources between the network and the outside world, and a storage visualization view shows what is stored. The system follows the same general idea as other storage-network mods, though its approach to data differs.
The mod uses three data types for storage, and the basic storage unit holds the first tier of the network. Cells and drivers are inserted into blocks that hold the stored contents. A user interaction block lets players work with the system directly, and a full GUI makes the network usable without commands. Commands are also available, and a help command lists the ones that exist.
Installation requires Geckolib. The mod is released under the MIT License and is open source, with its source code public. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1, with 0.0.2 as the latest build, marked alpha. Storage Upgrade runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. The author built the mod with MCreator, so porting to other loaders would take considerable effort, and the description notes that the mod is still mostly work in progress.

How it compares
Master's Simple Storage Terminal is a Forge-only option for 1.20.1 under the MIT License, but it is not open source and it does not add a controller network. No More 63 AE2 covers Fabric, Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 – 26.2 under the Apache License 2.0 and is open source, so it can be picked for a wider version range. Simple Storage Network runs on Forge and NeoForge for 1.12.2 – 26.1.2 under All rights reserved, so its range is far broader.

What the author says
Storage Upgrade is a mod similar to AE2 and Refined storage, but with a slightly different approach to data storage and visualization. The purpose of the mod is to make interaction with resources look like a terminal. Mod was created using MCreator, and therefore porting to other versions of Forge/Fabric will not…
