Obscura's Simple Storage v4.0.0

This file is the same for all four builds. Notes that only apply to one Minecraft version or loader are marked.

New loaders

• NeoForge 1.21.1 (NeoForge 21.1 or newer). Same features, balance and fixes as Fabric 1.21.1. Optional: JEI, REI, EMI, Jade, Polymorph, Curios.
• Forge 1.20.1 (Forge 47.1 or newer). The same jar also runs on NeoForge 1.20.1 (47.1.x). Same features, balance and fixes as Fabric 1.20.1. Optional: JEI, REI, EMI, Curios.
• Curios takes the place of Trinkets on NeoForge and Forge: the Advanced Wireless Terminal fits into the belt slot.
• Worlds can move between Fabric and NeoForge on 1.21.1, and between Fabric and Forge on 1.20.1. Make a backup first and take the terminal out of a Trinkets or Curios slot before you switch.

New features

• Item Locator: hold Alt and left-click an item in a Storage or Crafting Terminal. Every inventory that holds it is outlined through walls for 10 seconds (the nearest 64), and a message tells you about matches in other dimensions.
• Basic Inventory Hopper modes: right-click the hopper with the Inventory Configurator to switch between Normal, Pulse and Keep Stock. Sneak + right-click sets the amount (1, 2, 4, 8, 9, 16, 32, 64).
  • Pulse moves exactly that amount per redstone pulse, one item at a time. A vanilla Crafter gets one item per slot (1.21.1; on 1.20.1 use dispensers, droppers or any other target).
  • Keep Stock only fills the target up to the amount, for example 16 coal in a furnace.
  • Existing hoppers stay in Normal mode.
• Condition Filter: filters items by traits (damaged, enchanted, renamed, stackable, food, fuel, smeltable, block, has contents). Each trait is Ignore, Required or Excluded. Recipe: Item Filter + Comparator + Lapis Lazuli.
• Builder's Reach: carry a bound Wireless or Advanced Wireless Terminal and middle-click a block you don't have. A stack of it comes out of your storage, as long as you could open that terminal from where you stand.
• Restock: set a key for "Toggle Restock" in Controls. While it is on, the Advanced Wireless Terminal keeps the block stack in your hand above 16.
• Inventory Link without a beacon: open an Inventory Cable Connector with an empty hand and pick a channel. Connectors on the same channel link within 4096 blocks in the same dimension. Beacons on both ends still give unlimited range (level 1) and cross-dimension links (level 3).
• Inventory Cable Connectors apply two filters (1.21.1): their own filter and the filter on the block they point at, like on 1.20.1.
• 1.20.1 catches up with 1.21.1: search options popup, search syntax (| for or, spaces for and, @mod, #tag, $nbt), storage statistics tooltip, offhand slot in the terminal, a yellow 0 for items that ran out, channel owner and public/private in the Inventory Link, Configurator icon buttons, and filter tooltips (hold Ctrl).
• GUI: every sort mode has its own icon (Rarity, Registry ID, Durability and Item Group had copies of other icons). On 1.20.1, the filter toggles, list rows, scroll knobs, Add/Remove buttons, lock icons and Clear Grid button show up again.

Balance

• Wireless Terminal range: 32 blocks (was 16). Advanced Wireless Terminal range: 128 blocks (was 64).
• One beacon rule for the Advanced Wireless Terminal and the Inventory Link on all builds: level 1 = anywhere in the same dimension, level 3 = every dimension. (Cross-dimension used to need level 4 for terminals and level 2 for links.)
• Basic Inventory Hopper: one item every 8 ticks, the speed of a vanilla hopper (was 10 ticks on 1.21.1).
• The Advanced Wireless Terminal is fire resistant.
• New config switches buildersReachEnabled, restockEnabled and itemLocatorEnabled (all on by default).
• Config files are migrated automatically: a value still at its old default moves to the new default, a value you changed is kept. On 1.20.1, renamed keys (invRange and others) are carried over.

Fixes

Item loss and exploits

• 1.20.1: the Filing Cabinet overwrote items after a reload once it held more than 256. Fixed; old cabinets still load.
• Filing Cabinet refuses shulker boxes, bundles and other containers.
• 1.20.1: framed and painted blocks and the Inventory Proxy drop themselves again when broken.
• Open Crate amounts are clamped, so it can't spawn broken stacks.
• 1.21.1: the Inventory Configurator no longer deletes items in its filter slot when the block is broken by someone else.
• 1.21.1: changing a hopper's filter no longer moves one stray item.
• Fabric 1.21.1: removed a server exploit where a small client packet could expand to tens of megabytes on the server.
• The Crafting Terminal only accepts real 3x3 crafting recipes from recipe transfer requests.

Crashes

• 1.21.1: fixed a server crash when a network was rebuilt while a terminal was open, and a crash when a Basic Inventory Hopper ticked before it finished loading.
• 1.20.1: fixed a crash when the Inventory Configurator highlight was next to a painted framed cable.
• 1.20.1: an item that fails to render no longer crashes the terminal screen (it is skipped).

Storage and filters

• The terminal list no longer goes out of date while a JEI, REI or EMI recipe screen is open.
• 1.21.1: chests placed or replaced behind a filtered cable connector show up in the terminal, and removed storage no longer leaves ghost items.
• 1.21.1: item, tag and polymorphic filters no longer make items flicker or disappear.
• Fabric 1.21.1: the Inventory Configurator can filter vanilla and modded chests and barrels again.
• 1.20.1: a filter set with the Inventory Configurator on an Inventory Cable Connector works again.
• 1.21.1: furnaces, brewing stands and other sided inventories connected on two faces count each slot once.
• 1.21.1: a filtered hopper pulling from a network no longer gets stuck on the first inventory.
• 1.20.1: a Level Emitter turns off when its target is removed.

Data, recipes and text

• 1.20.1: the Basic Inventory Hopper, Filing Cabinet, Inventory Interface, Inventory Configurator and the "clean" recipes can be crafted in survival.
• 1.20.1: fixed the trim tags, the Trinkets belt slot tag and the advancements. 1.21.1: recipe advancements load.
• 1.20.1: terminal sort mode and settings are saved over restarts.
• 1.21.1: tooltips such as "Reach: %d blocks" show the number again, in every language.
• Shift-clicking items out of the terminal no longer puts them into your offhand.

Performance

• Terminals send only what changed. On 1.20.1 an open terminal used to re-read the whole network every tick. Now it checks for changes, and when nothing changes it does almost no work (both versions).
• Big item lists: opening a terminal with thousands of item types no longer slows down sharply, and amount-only changes update the list without sorting it again.
• Cable connectors rescan when something changes (plus a check once per second) instead of four times a second.
• 1.21.1: double chests, furnaces and other sided inventories are not rescanned while unchanged, and redstone next to a cable no longer refreshes every cable network in the dimension.
• 1.20.1: filters are looked up by position instead of checking every filter on each scan, and hopper and Level Emitter checks are spread over different ticks.
• The terminal's beacon check looks only at nearby block entities instead of about 5000 blocks.

Notes

• Removed on 1.20.1: the Filtered Inventory Cable Connector. The Inventory Configurator does the same job. Connectors already placed turn into a normal Inventory Cable Connector on their first tick and drop their filter items, so nothing is lost. Set the filter again with the Configurator.
• 1.20.1 Inventory Link: the provide/access switch is gone. Every link end provides and accesses, like on 1.21.1.
• Check custom beacon setups: existing Inventory Links keep working, but they follow the new range and beacon rules.
• Config files per loader: Fabric uses config/toms_storage.json. NeoForge and Forge use toms_storage-server.toml and toms_storage-common.toml. Settings are not shared between loaders, so copy your changes by hand if you switch.
• Sodium on Fabric: if painted blocks render wrong, install Indium.
• Every build was tested with automated in-world GameTests on a headless server: Fabric 1.21.1 (22), NeoForge 1.21.1 (24), Fabric 1.20.1 (23), Forge 1.20.1 (24, also on NeoForge 1.20.1).
• Worlds from v3.x load. Worlds don't move between Minecraft versions.
