Storage Accessor Block/Storage Processor Block
- Storage Access Block: Directly accesses all connected storage memory blocks for normal storage operations.
- Storage Processing Block: Allows item crafting while accessing storage.
Blank Storage Block
- Recognized and connected by accessor blocks but has no storage function.
Expansion Modules
- Corresponding expansion modules for each material (excluding non-upgradable materials).
- Directly increases the capacity of storage memory blocks, consuming one per use.
Basic/Advanced Remote Accessors
- Basic: Accesses bound coordinates of storage accessor/processor blocks within the same dimension.
- Advanced: Adds cross-dimension access to the basic remote accessor's features.
Recycle Bin
- Nine-slot storage space that automatically clears the last item when full.
- When clearing, items are prioritized to be stored in a container in front if not full; otherwise, they disappear.
Connection Cables
- Connects two non-contiguous connection blocks (all blocks within the mod are connection blocks).
Item Exporter
- Attaches to any container and transfers one stack of items to the nearest memory block every 5 ticks until empty.
- Right-click to specify item type; sneak-right-click to clear or switch matching mode.
- Matching mode only transfers existing item types in memory blocks.
Memory Extractor
- Opposite function to the item exporter; extracts one stack of items from memory blocks into a container.
- Can specify item type and switch matching modes.
Wireless Connector
- Placed on connection blocks; remotely connects two locations' memory blocks etc., through ports without distance or dimension limits.
Conversion Module
- Sneak-right-click on a chest to convert it into a wooden storage memory block; items are transferred along with it.
Recipe Processor Block/Recipe Record Card
- Put the recipe record card into the recipe processor block, put the materials of a recipe into the crafting slots, and
then take out the recipe record card to save a recipe into the recipe record card. - The recipe record card can be stored in the recipe processor block, and the recipe processor block will automatically
try to craft the recipe (requires redstone signal activation). - Automatic input and output can be achieved through the cooperation of Item Exporter and Memory Extractor.
Compressed Storage Memory Block
- Increase compression level by crafting two or more compressed storage memory blocks together; each level adds 27 slots of capacity.
Compression Upgrade Module
- Used to increase the compression level of compressed storage memory blocks.
Quick Crafting Table (Experimental)
