Everything is wire compatible. Logistics should be coming soon. I am guessing its what the people want lol. I am thinking on modifying just the storage chests' tiers. This would come with a reskin of all the logistics chests as well. I am additionally looking for an artist to make these look a bit better. However they are within theme of the original Iron Chest mod that this mod for this game is inspired by. All chests are the standard 64 x 64 and the sediments are 32 x 32. Everything looks decent in game

Before we get going, this mod does not add ore but it does add new plates and materials. These are obtainable through using the new sediment centrifuge. However there are plates and most plates that are involved in this mod are used for nothing but building a bigger more durable chest. There are some neat functions that relate to but are not entirely chest centric such as the return on iron, copper, and coal from stone through the centrifugal processing (I don't think these are OP as the recipe is a 10 stone - 1 sediment and a 2 sediment to 1 plate the return is horrible let me know if this needs balanced or whatever you guys think). I mention later in this description that I would like someone to build off of this. I am of mind that if no one else does I will probably build a 2nd mod that can utilize these new plates. Anyone is free to add this in as a dependency and require my plates in recipes so they are not just being used for chests specifically. If you are cool with that then the next portion is where all the cool stuff is explained.

This my compadres is a mod that allows you to have multiple chests of various sizes. This mod does reskin the default chest to pull the chests in line with the mod also slightly buffs basic chests. This mod is based off of the Minecraft Mod Iron chests and all sizes reflect the sizes in either Minecraft or in the Iron Chest mod itself.

Dirt Chest - 1 Slot -- (Does not come with owners manual.. yet)

Wooden Chest - 27 Slots

Copper Chest - 45 Slots

Steel Chest - 64

Iron Chest - 54 Slots

Silver Chest - 72 Slots

Gold Chest - 81 Slots

Diamond Chest, Obsidian Chest, and Crystal Chest have 108 slots.

I am actively working on improving this mod. The health pool of the chests for the most part reflect the materials used.

So how do you get the mats? -- Well I don't really like adding in a ton of ores especially for something goofy like this. To get around this I did a few things

The centrifuge is really important in this entire experience. You can now unlock this and only this out of the nuclear line at the start of the game with 300 red potions. (Other stuff unlocks like normal)

We use the centrifuge to spin out several sediment. These include coal sediment, iron sediment, copper sediment, silver sediment, gold sediment, diamond sediment, crystal sediment, obsidian sediment, and finally dirt sediment.

(please for the love of god someone build something off of this mod lol like contact me or something I hate this next part)

That brings us to the plates. We can bake a 2 -> 1 plate from each sediment excluding the base game related ones and dirt.

Dirt can bake into dirt plates as well but it can also be washed back into stone.

The coal sediment can be used as is at half the MJ of a regular piece of coal since its half its size and well we all know 2 & 2 are 4 so since base game coal is 4 well there you have it. This coal sediment can also be recrafted into coal at the same 2 -> 1 ratio.

For the nerds here are the % chances of each sediment.

dirt sediment probability = 0.4, amount = 1
coal-sediment probability = 0.2, amount = 1
iron-sediment probability = 0.15, amount = 1
copper-sediment probability = 0.1, amount = 1
silver-sediment probability = 0.05, amount = 1
gold-sediment probability = 0.03, amount = 1
diamond-sediment probability = 0.02, amount = 1
crystal-sediment probability = 0.015, amount = 1
obsidian-sediment probability = 0.01, amount = 1
