📦 Core Drawer Types

Every drawer is built from a standard Shelf block but specialized for different needs.

Large Drawer (1-Slot): Concentrates all its power into one item type. Perfect for massive quantities of cobble or dirt.
Medium Drawer (2-Slot): Split capacity for two different item types.
Small Drawer (3-Slot): Maximum organization with three distinct slots.
Compactor: Automatically converts items between their forms (e.g., Nuggets ⇋ Ingots ⇋ Blocks).
Controller: The "brain" of your storage. Link nearby drawers (up to 16 by default) to deposit items into the entire network at once.

🛠️ The Upgrade System

Customize your drawers with up to 9 upgrade slots. Access the upgrade menu by Shift + Right-Clicking the front face of a drawer.

📈 Storage & Capacity

Storage Upgrades (Tier 1-5): Multiplies base capacity by x2, x4, x8, x16, or x32.
Infinite Upgrade: Removes capacity limits entirely for creative-style storage.
One Stack Upgrade: Limits the drawer to exactly 64 items (useful for shop displays).

🤖 Automation & Utility

Hopper Upgrades (Pull/Push/Both): Allows drawers to automatically pull from containers above/behind or push to containers below/behind.
Void Upgrade: Automatically deletes excess items once the drawer reaches maximum capacity.
Clean Upgrade: Specifically for tools and armor. It strips custom NBT and "merges" durability into a shared pool for bulk storage of equipment.

🎨 Visuals & Feel

Fill Meter: Adds a visual progress bar to the HUD showing how full each slot is.
Bright Upgrade: Makes the 3D HUD glow, making it perfectly visible in total darkness.

⚡ Main Mechanics

🖥️ 3D Text HUD

No more opening GUIs to check counts! High-performance Text Displays show item counts directly on the block face.

Single Mode: Merges identical items into one total count.
Triple Mode: Shows separate counts for every individual slot.

🔗 Controller Networking

Link a Controller to your drawers using a lateral BFS discovery (±3 blocks).

Right-Click Controller: Insert your held item into the first matching drawer in the network.
Double Right-Click: Instantly deposit all matching items from your entire inventory into the linked network.

💎 Compaction Logic

Compactors treat storage as a single pool of "units." If you put in 9 Iron Ingots, you can pull out 1 Iron Block or 81 Iron Nuggets instantly.

🔐 Permissions & Access

Control who can touch your stuff with the built-in Friends & Access menu.
