✅ Features

Progressively Upgraded Chests: Adds 6 unique chest types with storage capacity exceeding a standard double chest, all in just a single block of space.
Dirt Chest (1 slot): A chest with a humorous capacity of exactly 1 slot, ideal for storing your most precious dirt block.
Copper Chest (45 slots): An early-game alternative to standard chests that offers a comfortable capacity of 45 slots.
Iron Chest (54 slots): The first major leap in massive storage, offering the equivalent of a double chest in a single block (54 slots).
Gold Chest (81 slots): A luxurious chest that significantly increases storage capacity to 81 slots.
Diamond Chest (108 slots): The ultimate chest with an immense capacity of 108 slots to store all your treasures.
Obsidian Chest (108 slots): Offers the same capacity as the diamond chest (108 slots), but with the advantage of being blast-resistant and requiring more time to mine (15 seconds).
In-game Chest Upgrades: Upgrade your chests directly in the world without breaking them! Sneak and interact while holding a chest upgrade item to upgrade your chest to the next tier, preserving the position, orientation, and all stored items.
Dynamic Animation and Interaction: Chests feature smooth 3D open/close animations, custom sound effects, and an intelligent collision system.
Dynamic Sneak Collision: When sneaking and looking at the chest, its physical collision is temporarily disabled to allow placing other adjacent blocks easily.

⚠️ Bedrock Limitations

Backup Entities: Since Minecraft Bedrock does not support native dynamic inventories on custom blocks of variable size, each chest uses an invisible backup entity. A massive number of chests loaded simultaneously in a small area could slightly affect performance. (Periodic cleanup tasks run in the background to prevent orphan/ghost entities).
View Direction Detection: The auto-close system tracks the player's view direction vector using a cosine threshold to determine when the player turns away from the chest. This is optimized to tolerate up to ~25 degrees of look deviation, preventing premature closure from subtle camera jitter.
