SortIt!

Attention!! This mod is currently a pre-release version!! Try it at your own risk. Stuff is bound to break, and things might and will change.

This mod tries to alleviate the vanilla problem of having to build somewhat large item-sorter contraptions which can be quite resource-heavy, large and complicated to get working correctly (especially if you want to have a nice and large sorting/storage system). It adds some blocks for item sorting/filtering while maintaining a vanilla-like gameplay. These sorters are somewhat expensive, especially the multi-item-sorters, as they are intended to be mid/late-game content.

There are five levels of the sorter available for now (copper to diamond). The first level of the sorter has one slot for sorting items, the second level has two slots, and so on. The sorting logic can also be inverted (e.g. the sorter will sort all items except the one in the sorting slot).

 The sorters can be placed in two variants:

• single output (just as a hopper)
• dual outputs (one to the side and one downwards)

This is done by looking either downwards or to a sideward block when placing the sorter. For the dual-output variant, the downwards-facing output is filtered (controlled by the filter slot) and the other one will transfer all other items to the side it is facing to. This means that a dual-output sorter will accept any item as input. It will sort the filtered items downwards and the rest is sent off to the side. Whereas the single-output sorter does only accept the filtered items! The sorters do have overflow protection to avoid clogging them up. 

More changes are to come in futur versions.
