What's new

Copper Golem Smart Sorter 1.0.1

New Features

  • Added 4 selectable Copper Golem modes:

    • Normal – Standard item transportation behavior.

    • Smart Sorter – Consolidates matching items into existing storage.

    • Category Sorter – Automatically organizes items by category.

    • Mod Sorter – Automatically organizes items by their mod/namespace.

  • Added Shift + Right Click mode switching.

  • The currently selected mode is displayed when switching modes.

  • Sorter modes are now saved and persist after leaving or reloading the world.

Category Sorter

  • Added automatic item classification for categories such as:

    • Blocks and building materials

    • Wood and stone

    • Ores, raw materials, ingots and gems

    • Tools, weapons, ranged weapons and armor

    • Food and plants

    • Mob drops

    • Redstone

    • Storage and transportation items

    • Brewing, potions and magic items

    • Books and fluid containers

    • Miscellaneous items

  • Category Sorter can reorganize items that are already stored in the wrong chest.

  • Improved category detection for modded items using item types and tags.

  • Improved large/double chest handling.

  • Category Sorter now correctly enters an idle state once all available sorting work is finished.

Mod Sorter

  • Added automatic sorting by mod namespace.

  • Each mod can automatically establish its own storage chest.

  • Mixed chests containing items from multiple mods are automatically cleaned up.

  • Added overflow storage support when a mod's primary chest becomes full.

  • Existing overflow chests are reused instead of unnecessarily assigning new ones.

  • Fixed cases where Mod Sorter could incorrectly become idle while mixed-mod items still needed to be sorted.

AI & Routing Improvements

  • Completely reworked routing for Category and Mod Sorter modes.

  • Added planned/exact item pickup to prevent Copper Golems from taking the wrong item from a chest.

  • Improved source and destination selection.

  • Improved handling of full and partially filled storage containers.

  • Old targets are cleared when switching modes to prevent stale routing behavior.

  • Improved rebalancing of already populated storage systems.

Idle Behavior

  • Smart, Category and Mod Sorters no longer wander far away when there is no work available.

  • Idle sorters remain close to their working area.

  • Sorters automatically resume working when a new valid sorting task becomes available.

Fixes

  • Fixed incorrect Mod Sorter routing when the primary storage chest was full.

  • Fixed mixed namespaces sometimes being left unsorted.

  • Fixed Category Sorter failing to properly finish its sorting cycle.

  • Fixed several cases of incorrect or stale pickup targets.

  • Improved routing stability with double chests and larger storage setups.

  • Various AI, routing and compatibility improvements.
