Sorter

Sortiermod

Drop items into one block and they find their own chest.

The Sorter sends every item into the linked chest that already holds that item. Anything that fits nowhere goes into your overflow chest. You don't have to set up any filters: put one dirt block into a chest, and from then on all dirt ends up there.

Features

• Sorter: a block with 27 slots. Put items in by hand or with a hopper, and it sorts them on its own.
• Link Wand: connects chests, barrels and other containers within 16 blocks to a sorter.
• Watch it sort: a pink and purple particle beam grows from the sorter to the chest an item went into.
• Chest list: the sorter's menu shows every linked chest and what goes into it. You can fold the list in and out. Click a chest and the beam shows you where it is.
• Chest Identifier: a small glowing cubby shelf for the front of a chest. It shows what's inside, and right-clicking it opens the chest.
• All recipes show up in the recipe book.
• English and German.

How to use

1. Craft a Sorter and a Link Wand and place the sorter.
2. Right-click the sorter with the wand to select it.
3. Right-click each chest with the wand to link it. Right-click again to unlink.
4. Sneak and right-click a chest to make it the overflow chest.
5. Put one sample item into each chest, for example cobblestone in one and dirt in another.
6. Drop items into the sorter and watch them fly to the right chest.
