How to Create Linked Chests:

  1. Add a Chest using /chestlink add <group> or simply write the ChestLink format on a sign placed on a Chest! 
  2. Open a chest as you normally would! or use /chestlink open or /chestlink menu to open the chest remotely!
  3. Each chest that gets added to that group will share the same inventory with all other chests in that group!

Note the /chestlink command can be replaced with /cl for convenience.

How to Create Auto-Crafting Stations:

  • Add a Crafting Table using /autocraft add <group> or simply write the AutoCraft format on a sign placed on a Crafting Table!

  • Open the Crafting Table and create your recipe (This requires at least one of each item and it won't use that item up!)
  • Once you have a valid recipe the table will notify you with a chime, at this point if the recipe has different variations such as wood type they will start to animate in the crafting grid.
  • To start crafting, a Chest (or any block with a valid inventory such as Furnaces, Barrels, Shulker Boxes, Hoppers etc) must be placed either on top or on any of the 3 sides not including the front.
  • Next, place a hopper underneath the Crafting Table and AutoCrafting will start automatically.
  • Alternatively, place a Chest or any other inventory block underneath the Crafting Table and apply a redstone signal to it.

Torch AutoCraft Example:

The following configurations work to AutoCraft torches with either a Hopper, or a chest underneath! 

Hopper Filters

  • Hoppers can have filters applied to them so that they only accepted or reject certain items.

  • To add a filter to a Hopper you simply place an item frame on top or on any of its sides, and then place the item you would like to filter in it.

  • Currently there are four types of filters that can be enabled by rotating the item in the Item Frame.

    1. 0° Default - The Hopper will only accept this item. (Note multiple filters can be used on a hopper.)
    2. 45° Rejection Mode - The Hopper will prevent this item from being accepted but will accept other items.
    3. 90° Type-Acceptance - The Hopper will accept items that are of the same type, e.g Enchanted Books, Enchanted weapons, Potions etc.
    4. 135° Type-Rejection - The Hopper will reject all items that would normally be accepted in the filter above, so similar types are rejected.
