Overview

Put your most frequently used items within convenient reach. Storage Drawers borrows ideas from Jabba and Bibliocraft, resulting in a highly functional, compact, and aesthetic storage solution that is meant to complement rather than replace those mods.

Usage

There is no traditional slotted inventory with these containers. Interaction is click-based similar to Jabba. Clicking on one of drawers on front will interact with that drawer.

Right-Click: Insert full stack in hand into drawer (or partial stack if the drawer fills).
Double-Right-Click: Insert all compatible stacks in inventory into drawer (or until drawer fills).
Left-Click: Remove a single item from the drawer.
Shift+Left-Click: Remove a full stack from the drawer.
Shift+Right-Click with empty hand: Open a UI to see exact item counts and manage applied upgrades.

The shift-click behavior is reversed from Jabba. This is based on the theory that you normally interact with stacks in Jabba, but will want to normally interact with single items in Storage Drawers. The controls can be reversed in the mod config to match Jabba.

Style, Choices, Upgrades

The wooden drawers are the main storage block in Storage Drawers, and they come in a variety of configurations and styles. You can pick from any of the Vanilla plank colors when crafting to get a matching block.

Drawers come in six configurations, trading capacity and compactness at different points:

Half-size 1x1: Stores 16 stacks per drawer.
Half-size 2x2: Stores 4 stacks per drawer.
Half-size 1x2: Stores 8 stacks per drawer.
Full-size 2x2: Stores 8 stacks per drawer.
Full-size 1x2: Stores 16 stacks per drawer.
Full-size 1x1: Stores 32 stacks per drawer.

All drawers (and other supporting blocks) can be crafted in framed versions, which lets them be restyled with different block materials.

Capacity can be further boosted with storage upgrades. Upgrades do not need to be applied in sequence, so you can pick the size you need from the start.

Many other kinds of upgrades can also be applied:

Balanced Fill: Equalizes item counts between multiple drawers holding the same item
Conversion: Can automatically substitute same-kind items, like variations of metal ingots
Creative: Upgrades for infinite storage or infinite supply
Fill Level: Adds a visual fill bar
Hopper: Collects items in-world
Illumination: Brightens labels in dark places
Magnet: Collects items in-world from a distance
One Stack: Downgrades storage space to a single stack
Portability: Carry drawers without encumberance (if option is enabled)
Redstone: Emit redstone based on fill levels
Void: Voids excess items added to full drawers

Drawers can also be locked or unlocked with the Drawer Key. When a drawer is locked, it will maintain its current item association even if the last item is removed. This will prevent pipes and other transport systems from re-filling that drawer with other items.

Other keys and tools exist to alter other aspects of drawers:

Quanitfy Key: Adds item counts to drawers
Concealment Key: Hide drawer labels (and save render performance)
Priority Key: Change a drawer's priority on a controller network
Personal Key: Prevent other players from interacting with your drawer blocks
Pause Key: Pauses a drawer from moving items on a network or performing most actions
Drawer Puller: A tool to remove individual drawers from their blocks

The "key" tools can also be used on controllers to mass-act on all connected drawers.

Compacting Drawers and the Drawer Controller

Compacting drawers are a special stone-colored drawer that auto-convert compressible items. Instead of manually crafting and uncrafting between gold blocks, ingots, and nuggets, put them in a compacting drawer. The drawer will internally maintain a pool of the material, and let you insert or remove the material in any of the shown forms.

The compacting behavior applies to any item with a compressed recipe, including redstone, glowstone, wheat, and many others.

Drawer Controllers are the second special block in the mod. They will search for any connected drawer within 50 blocks by default (configurable), and then expose all of those drawers as a large combined inventory. This lets you hook up a single pipe, tube, duct, spark, storage bus, etc. and interact with the entire bank of drawers.

The second function of the controller is as a deposit-only interactive block. By right-clicking on the front face with an item, the item will be deposited into the connected network. By double-right clicking, it will attempt to dump your entire inventory. Items will only be dumped if they already exist in the network, allowing you to clear out a bunch of mob drops or farmed crops without literally dumping your entire inventory.

Controller IO blocks act as an extension of a drawer controller, exposing more faces for attaching machines, pipes, or crafting frames. Controllers will bind to an IO when they find them on the network, and all IOs bound to the same controller will share the same inventory and range as that controller. Unlike drawers, IOs cannot be shared, and you should be careful to not put them in range of multiple controllers. Using controller IO is better for performance than using multiple controllers.

Trim blocks are decorative wood paneled blocks similar to wooden drawers, but they can also be used to connect drawer blocks within a controller network.

Compatibility

While some players choose to use Storage Drawers as a replacement for other storage mods, it works best with others. Pair up with more complex storage mods like Applied Energistics 2 or Refined Storage and attach your drawer controller network to their storage network, taking advantage of their access terminals and other features.

Compatibility with other mods varies version to version. In the more recent 1.20.1+ branches, special integration has been added for:

FTB Chunks (to better respect chunk protection)
FTB Teams (to support team-based personal locking)
CoFH Core (to support CoFH friends list personal locking)
Jade and TheOneProbe (additional info on their tooltips)

Configuration

Many aspects of the mod can be configured via its main config file storagedrawers-common-v2.toml. Some of the things that can be configured:

Per-block and per-upgrade storage amounts
Individually disable any tool or upgrade
Tweak or disable a wide array of features

Most config items can be live-reloaded using a mod like Configured, though a few entries may require a full world reload or individual world chunks to reload.
