Pull Ingredients Automatically from Nearby Chests While Crafting

Setting Up Chest Detection

The mod scans for storage containers (chests, barrels, shulker boxes, etc.) in a radius around your character. Stand near your storage and open a crafting table. The mod will automatically detect reachable containers without any setup required.

Crafting with Auto-Pull

When you request a recipe:

1. Open your crafting table as normal

2. Click a recipe or queue one using scroll + modifier keys

3. The mod checks nearby containers for ingredients

4. Items are pulled directly into the crafting grid

5. Finished items move to your hotbar or inventory

You never need to manually fetch ingredients from chests. If the mod cannot find enough materials in nearby containers, it will use items already in your inventory, then pull the rest.

Range and Container Types

The detection range is limited—stay reasonably close to your storage area. The mod works with any standard storage block: chests, double chests, barrels, shulker boxes, and similar containers. Hoppers and other redstone components are not treated as ingredient sources.
