GlymeraMegaChest - Changelog

v3.0.0 (2026-05-02)

New Features

• Second chest variant: Network Chest — a Temple Light double-chest block with a soft lavender tint (item id GlymeraMegaChestNetwork_Block). Every Network Chest a player places shares a single per-owner item pool. Drop something into one Network Chest and it's instantly available in every other Network Chest the same player owns, anywhere in the world.
• Smart break rule for Network Chests. Unlike the standard Mega Chest, which refuses to break while non-empty, the Network Chest variant:
  • Allows breaking any chest freely as long as the owner still has at least one other Network Chest placed — the pool stays accessible.
  • Blocks breaking only when it's the last Network Chest in the network AND the pool is non-empty, with the message "This is your last network chest. Empty the storage first or place another network chest."
  • The pool itself is never destroyed by a break; items remain in the player's pool until they are taken out through any Network Chest, or until both the pool and the chest count reach zero.
• New OP command /megachest givenet [player] for handing out Network Chest items.
• Standard Mega Chest is unchanged. Same crafting, same model (Royal Magic Chest), same per-chest standalone behavior. Players who do not need a network can keep using it as before.

Why

Customer feedback (CurseForge): players building castles and village settlements wanted crafting benches in different themed buildings to draw from a single shared stockpile. The old workflow with the discontinued pipes mod required manual chest-shuffling. The Network Chest variant solves the storage half of that problem out of the box, while leaving the standalone Mega Chest variant intact for players who want a per-location chest.

Crafting

Network Chest is crafted at the Alchemybench (category Alchemy_Potions):

• 1x Furniture_Temple_Light_Chest_Large
• 3x Ingredient_Life_Essence_Concentrated

The single craftingEnabled config toggle now governs both variants. OPs can hand chests out via /megachest give (standard) and /megachest givenet (network) regardless.

Technical Details

• New block id GlymeraMegaChestNetwork_Block. Model: Decorative_Sets/Temple_Light/Chest.blockymodel (the native 2-block double-chest), HitboxType: Chest_Large, custom texture Decorative_Sets/Glymera/MegaChestNetwork_Texture.png carrying a gentle lavender tint applied per pixel from the original Temple Light chest texture.
• ChestData gained a kind enum (CHEST / NETWORK) and a positions: List<ChestPosition> field. Standard chests keep their single worldName/x/y/z triple; network pools use positions instead and the id is "net:" + ownerUuid.
• Storage layout:
  • Standard chests still serialize to plugins/GlymeraMegaChest/chests/<uuid>.json (one file per placed chest).
  • Network pools serialize to plugins/GlymeraMegaChest/network/net:<owner-uuid>.json (one file per owner, regardless of how many chests they have placed).
• posToChest continues to map every block position (single for standard chests, many-to-one for network chests) to a single ChestData id, so the existing MegaChestUseBlockSystem works for both variants without modification — the UI sees a ChestData and renders its items map.
• New event system MegaChestNetworkPlaceBlockSystem mirrors the standard place-handler with the same PendingPlace + tryConfirmNetworkPlace after-tick check, registering the new position under the owner's pool (creating the pool on first placement).
• MegaChestBreakBlockSystem was extended with a kind == NETWORK branch implementing the smart break rule (chest count + pool emptiness check, position removal, conditional pool deletion when both chests and items reach zero).
• MegaChestDamageBlockSystem and MegaChestCraftRecipeSystem accept both BLOCK_ID and BLOCK_NETWORK_ID so the 3-layer protection and the craftingEnabled toggle cover both variants.
• Deposit deny-list (the check that prevents nesting chests inside chests) was extended to refuse BLOCK_NETWORK_ID as well.
• All ingredient and bench ids in the new recipe were verified against Assets.zip before shipping (Furniture_Temple_Light_Chest_Large, Ingredient_Life_Essence_Concentrated, Alchemybench / Alchemy_Potions).

v2.0.0 (2026-05-01)

New Features

• Deposit Manager sub-page — clicking the "Deposit Inventory" button no longer dumps your whole inventory into the chest at once. It now opens a dedicated picker page where you can:
  • Click any individual slot in your Storage (or Backpack, if you have unlocked capacity) to deposit just that one stack.
  • Use the bulk buttons Deposit Storage / Deposit Backpack / Deposit All to mass-deposit a single section or everything at once.
  • Hit Back to return to the chest's main view.
• Hotbar is still never deposited, even on "Deposit All". Equipped tools, weapons, and quick-access items stay where they are.

Why

Customer feedback (CurseForge): with the old all-or-nothing button, players had to either empty out items they wanted to keep before opening the chest, or fish them back out of the chest afterwards. The new picker makes selective deposits a one-click operation while keeping the existing one-button bulk-deposit available for the common case.

Technical Details

• New page class MegaChestDepositPage extending InteractiveCustomUIPage<DepositEventData>. Opened by the existing "Deposit Inventory" button on MegaChestPage instead of running the deposit immediately.
• New UI asset Common/UI/Custom/Pages/MegaChestDepositPage.ui — two slot grids (#StorageGrid, #BackpackGrid) plus three bulk buttons and a back button. Slots reuse the existing MegaChestSlot.ui template, including durability percentage display.
• Backpack section is rendered only if Inventory.getBackpack().getCapacity() > 0; otherwise a "none unlocked" hint is shown.
• depositPlayerBackpack(...) was split into:
  • depositContainers(chest, player, includeStorage, includeBackpack) — bulk path, walks one or both containers.
  • depositSlot(chest, player, containerId, slotIndex) — single-slot path used by per-slot clicks.
  • Both reuse the internal depositOneSlotInternal(chest, container, slot) helper, which is the only place that actually moves items and rolls back the chest add if the inventory removal fails (anti-dupe).
• New codec DepositEventData (Action / Container / Slot) for the sub-page event traffic. Container is a string id ("storage" or "backpack"); the live ItemContainer is resolved server-side at handle time, never sent through the codec.

v1.0.0 (2026-04-25)

Initial release.

• Paginated mass-storage chest: 108 slots × 10 pages = 1080 slots, default 999,999 items per slot (≈ 1 billion items total per chest).
• Custom UI page with search (powered by CompactTextField with prefix-stripping for friendly terms), page navigation, Deposit Inventory button, and per-slot click-to-take (left-click = 100, right-click = 4500 = a full empty inventory).
• Auto-sort on UI close (alphabetical by item id, with stack merging).
• Owner-only 3-layer protection (DamageBlock + BreakBlock + UseBlock cancellations).
• Drop-safe block (Material: Solid, no Support, DropList: Empty, markDeco) — never dropped by physics changes.
• Block lock when non-empty: a non-empty chest refuses to be broken; only an empty chest returns the chest item to the owner.
• Crafting at the Alchemybench from 1× Furniture_Royal_Magic_Chest_Small + 2× Ingredient_Life_Essence_Concentrated. Toggle via craftingEnabled in the config.
• Compact quantity display for big stacks (12K, 3.5M, 1.2B) and per-slot durability percentage with green/yellow/red color tiers.
• Persistence: one JSON file per chest under plugins/GlymeraMegaChest/chests/.

Commands

• /megachest give — give yourself a Mega Chest item (OP only)
• /megachest reload — reload config.json (OP only)
