I'm living in Ukraine and there is war happening right now. Most of my free time I spend on modding when I get a few hours between electricity blackouts.
If you love my work, you can support me on Patreon, I would greatly appreciate it ❤️. Donations keep me doing what I truly love - modding.


Brings multiblock crates and ability to remove/add crate label.

  • Crates that take a lot of space, and have the same number of slots per block accordingly to values of vanilla crates, e.g. 3x3x3=27x16=432 stacks
  • Compatible with Wildcraft Trees mod
Known Issues

Note that these bugs are caused by game code.

Github #1760: Cannot automatically pull items out of mutliblock parts.
Github #1856: Crates use hardcoded "contents" shape for opened state.

- Label's selection box is on all parts of multiblock.

icesharkk My mod has nothing to do with it, "label bug" is vanilla "feature"

💬 icesharkk, Feb 16th at 6:50 PM

has anyone seen a mod besides better crates that allows for permanent or automatic labeling? i dont want the ludicrous internal storage, and i absolutelly hate that if you empty the crate the drawing just disapears. terrible design in a multiplayer storage warehouse. noone knows where anything goes adn all of these players are too lazy to use the charcoal that i placed on the ground RIGHT THERE.

I can't find a bug that causes crash, probably will never get fixed because it worked perfectly before 1.19

💬 VaelophisNyx, Feb 12th 2024 at 2:18 AM

most recipes are fairly straight-forward at least, easy to guess through (Saw + X number of crates, etc)
but this crash is getting fairly irritating

💬 Tendi3us, Feb 11th 2024 at 3:36 AM

Broken... :(  as said below looking up recipes just instantly crashes the game (1.19.3)

What are the chances of you eventually adding multiblock liquid storage? I'm thinking giant liquid vats/kegs like you see in fantasy themed taverns. 

 

I always reach a certain point mid-late game where I want to mass produce wine and mead but have a hard time storing it all.

Tested this with Storage Controller and it appears to work.

Update: I ended up running into issues with the above controller mod, it seemed to stop putting things in the crate for unknown reasons. Picking up and placing all the crates back down appeared to fix it.

I think Better Crates might be what you're looking for if your wanting crates with higher storage, this mod seems to want to strickly adhere to vanilla values.

Edit: Just saw the mod dev replied about making it configurable.

💬 ASILiara, Nov 25th 2023 at 11:07 PM

Configurable is good!

💬 DanaCraluminum , Nov 25th 2023 at 10:43 PM

ASILiara I would make it configurable

💬 ASILiara, Nov 25th 2023 at 10:39 PM

I might suggest that the larger crates give you slightly more storage, to represent the fact that the larger crates don't have the same amount of walls that a cube of single crates would, allowing for better piles and not wasting space that would be taken up by the walls of smaller crates. Give a bit of incentive, you know?

Otherwise, bloody great.

💬 macoto_hino, Apr 6th 2022 at 6:34 AM

It's a great mod, with increased storage without sacrificing the vanilla feel.
And I'm even happier that it has Japanese from the start.😀
