Set Up a Storage Network with Container Filters

Create Your Storage Hub

Start by placing multiple chests, barrels, or shulker boxes near your crafting area. The mod scans for containers within a configurable range—check your settings to confirm the scan distance matches your setup.

Configure Whitelist and Blacklist Filters

Open the mod's container settings menu and access the whitelist/blacklist panel. You can drag and drop specific container blocks directly into these lists to control which storage boxes receive items during quick-stack and dump operations.

Whitelist approach: Add only the containers you want to use. This is strict but predictable.

Blacklist approach: Exclude containers you want to keep separate (like a trash barrel or decoration storage). Items will go everywhere else.

Test Your Network

Stand within range of your configured containers and open your inventory. Click the Q button to quick-stack a few items and verify they route to the correct boxes. Adjust your filter settings if items go to unexpected locations.

Tip: Use different container types (chests for common items, barrels for bulk storage) and filter accordingly for better organization.
