BetterChests

Welcome to the world of enhanced storage possibilities! This innovative mod was created during the ModJam competition in August 2013, achieving an impressive fifth place among 20 individual projects developed in just 92 hours.

What is BetterChests?

At the core of this mod is the concept of a modular chest that can be customized to suit your needs. Instead of a simple item container, you get a multifunctional device with enormous potential.

Key Features

Using special upgrades, an ordinary chest transforms into a powerful tool for automating various processes. Create cobblestone generators directly inside the chest, configure automatic item collection within its radius, or use it as a giant furnace for simultaneously smelting multiple resources.

The chest's functionality can be expanded to become a full-fledged farm—both for growing plants and for breeding animals and mobs. And if you need more storage space, you can always increase the container's internal volume—it becomes significantly larger than its external dimensions.

Bonus: Portable Version

For those who value mobility, the mod offers a backpack with similar upgrade capabilities. Most modules available for chests work perfectly with portable storage as well.
