Description

ESI Iron Chests

ESI Iron Chests introduces a comprehensive, tiered storage progression system to the game. From humble beginnings with wood logs to end-game fantasy metals, this mod allows your storage solutions to grow alongside your adventure.

This mod is heavily inspired by minecraft mod of the same name, Iron Chests.

Features

10 Unique Tiers of chests ranging from early-game to end-game.
Balanced Progression: Storage capacity scales smoothly with material rarity.
Double Chest Mechanics: Early tiers can be placed side-by-side to form double chests.
High-Tier Balancing: Higher tier chests provide massive storage in a single block but cannot be doubled, keeping UI sizes manageable (Hard cap of 63 slots).
Simplified Crafting: All chests are crafted at the Furniture Bench.
Sorted Inventory: Chests appear in the crafting menu ordered by their storage capacity.

Storage Tiers

Here is the complete breakdown of chest capacities.

Tier	Material	Single Slots	Double Chest Slots	Double Chest Allowed?
0	Log	18	36	✅ Yes
1	Copper	23	46	✅ Yes
2	Bronze	27	54	✅ Yes
3	Iron	31	62	✅ Yes
4	Gold	36	--	❌ Single Only
5	Cobalt	41	--	❌ Single Only
6	Thorium	45	--	❌ Single Only
7	Adamantite	50	--	❌ Single Only
8	Mithril	59	--	❌ Single Only
9	Onyxium	63	--	❌ Single Only

> Note: To prevent UI overflow, any chest tier that would exceed 63 slots when doubled is restricted to a Single Chest variant only - May include double chest variants of larger chests in future if I can figure out how to modify the GUI.

Crafting Recipes

All chests are crafted using the Furniture Bench under the Furniture Storage category.

Log Chest (Starter)

Metal Chests (All Tiers)
