Hot Deposit

An add-on for Sophisticated Item Actions (NeoForge 1.21.1).

Hot Deposit adds a single block, a carved wooden owl with gold trim. Right-click it and every item in your main inventory (not your hotbar) that already matches something in nearby storage is deposited into that storage. It does the same thing as Sophisticated Item Actions' Shift + ' keybind, built for controller players and anyone who can't easily press a modifier + key combo.

The owl's eyes

The owl's two purple eyes open and glow when a player in range is carrying something that can be deposited, and close when there's nothing to deposit. While open, the block gives off a soft light (level 10, like a soul lantern).

• Inventory changes show within about a second.
• Changes to what's inside nearby storage show within about 5 seconds.

Screenshots

Eyes open: you're carrying items that match nearby storage.

After a right-click: the matching items went into the chest, so the eyes close.

Features

• Works with an item in your hand. Sneak + right-click places blocks against it as usual.
• Deposits into any storage Sophisticated Item Actions supports, including vanilla chests, Sophisticated Storage and Sophisticated Backpacks.
• Breaks as fast as a chest (by hand or with any tool; axes are fastest) and drops itself.
• Built to stay cheap on busy servers: blocks with no player nearby do no work, nearby storages are cached, each player's answer is reused until their inventory changes, and all Hot Deposit blocks share one queue capped at 4 real checks per tick.

Config

Open it from the Mods list (select Hot Deposit, then Config) or edit config/hotdeposit-common.toml.

• Deposit Range (default 10, max 32): how far from the block storages are searched. This is measured from the block, not the player.
• Storage Blacklist: storages that are never deposited into. Entries can be a block or entity id (minecraft:furnace, minecraft:armor_stand), a whole mod (somemod:*) or a tag (#c:chests). Defaults: armor stand, furnace, blast furnace, smoker, brewing stand.
