Quick & Easy sorting for your Vintage Story containers. (Supports Better Crates!)

QP's Storage Controller

Description

<span style="background-color: #f1c40f;">Note: The SC Will no longer accept or display items that spoil (or otherwise use transitionalProps), mainly food!</span>

The Storage Controller will let you quickly sort items into your Vintage Story containers! This works somewhat similarily to the Storage Drawer mod for Minecraft. Open the Storage Controller chest and put your items in. You using a linking tool to tell the Storage Controller what containers to use. Supports the Better Crates mod (which is highly recommended!). Different tiers can be built with increasingly better range and speed.
Also works with Chiseled Containers!

<span style="background-color: #f1c40f;">(in general food, but also other things that decay/change over time),</span>
<span style="background-color: #f1c40f;">will eject these items from its input slots - decayable items already in the chests etc just won't be displayed</span>
- fixed up some descriptions

<span style="background-color: #2fcc71;">1.0.10</span>
Changes:
- add ctrl click to take single item from the stack!
Fixes:
- fix filter being deleted on taking stacks (filter will remain when opening/closing)
- fixes some crashing with crocks (hopefully)
- fixed some other bugs
- hopefully vanilla crates will behave a bit better

<span style="background-color: #2fcc71;">1.0.8</span>
- massive overhaul courtesy of <a href="https://mods.vintagestory.at/list/mod?sortby=lastreleased&amp;sortdir=desc&amp;text=&amp;side=&amp;userid=321&amp;mv=">Mister Andy Dandy!
- new UI includes a search bar and scrollable inventory
- just right click to get UI now
- UI has a small refresh button, top right to update storage contents after taking/inserting
- shift click or drag inventory into the storage controller input slots right from the main ui!
- new graphics for linker and storage controller
- left clicking with linker connects/disconnects to the controller, with highlighting
- better highlighting of linked units
- includes a new garbage bin! (just drag unwanted items on to the bin on the UI - careful they will instantly be destroyed!)
- note stacks are now shown separately for stability reasons, when you click on a stack you will get the first stack of that type from inventory
- you may not get the exact stack you clicked on - eg: 64 of clay stones and 12 of clay stones - click on one may give you the other

<span style="background-color: #2fcc71;">1.0.7</span>
- show/highlight button - now shows range of device!
- mouse over text for inventory!
- move large .afphoto out of assets (oops!)

<span style="background-color: #2fcc71;">1.0.6 adds two new buttons (open the storage controller interface with shift+right click) - also fixes many transfer bugs</span>
- Clear All
- this will unlink all containers from this storage controller
- Link All
- this will link every controller in range
&nbsp; &nbsp;- respects land claims (if you don't have access it won't link it)
&nbsp; &nbsp;- will not link to reinforced containers
&nbsp; &nbsp;- will not link to other storage controllers

Control+Right Click&nbsp;on the&nbsp;Storage Controller&nbsp;to opens up the&nbsp;Storage System Inventory - you can click on the items to receive the items (it will pull the first stack or partial stack)


How to use:
- craft a Storage Linker (copper, metal part, and whatever other ingot is convenient)
- craft a Storage Controller (there are several tiers with different transfer speeds and ranges)
- place&nbsp; your controller (and containers naturally)
- left click the controller with your linker, than left click any containers you want to use (Chests, Trunks, Better Crates, Vessels, Vanilla Crates)
- anything placed in the Storage Controller will now get placed in this crates, highest priority is filtered Better Crates, then any container that already contains the item, and then empty crates, then other empty containers

- shift + left click with the linker removes the container from the controller's list
- ctrl+right click - opens the interface allowing you to take out items and access settings (also toggles linked container highlighting, will probably make that a separate button eventually)

- you can't link a container if a claim you don't have access to and you can't link a container that is reinforced
