Description
Enhanced Storage is a quality of life mod which improves the whole storage system of Starbound. On the one hand it adds a lot of new features to the usablity of containers, and on the other it adds many new content concerning storage and containers.


Container Improvements

Keep content
  • Stored items in a container will be kept inside after smashing.
  • Items from world generated containers can simply be picked up by smashing the container when the container was not opened before.
Increased capacity
  • The number of slots is increased and depends on the used area of each container to maintain the balance between small and large containers.
  • The basic formula is: Capacity = 20 + usedTiles * 3 (e.g. Tech Chest: 20 + 12 * 3 = 56)
Item sorting
  • Choosable primary sorting orders (name, type, rarity, value).
  • Choosable sorting directions (ascending & descending).
  • After primary sorting it follows an automatic secondary sorting (rot time, count).
  • Chosen sorting options will be saved for every single container until it gets smashed.
Item searching
  • Just type your keyword(s) in the textbox, mismatching items will be greyed out.
  • It is also possible to search by item category (grey text below item name) or colony tag.
    Use # at first to search for it. (e.g. #food, #block or #avian)
  • The keysword(s) must contain a minimum of 2 characters.
Quick stack
  • Pressing the button in the bottom left corner moves all items from the inventory into the container if the same items are in it.
  • Currently equipped items (armor and items in hands) and almost food (because different rot times) cannot be transferred.
Rename & coloring
  • Possibility to rename a container, even in colored font.
  • Possibility to change the interface color to 10 different colors with preview.
  • Possibility to toggle the 'keep items after smashing' functionality on or off.
Sell values
  • The price of a container includes the price of all items inside.
    This can be used for selling only one container with content instead of selling every single item.

New Content

Capacity Level Indicators
  • Shows the current used slots of a nearby container.
  • While placing an indicator you can see the range where it scans for nearby containers.
  • Works with all containers in the game, even with containers from mods!
  • Interacting with an indicator (default 'E') changes the style, there are 9 available styles.
  • All indicators can be purchased from 'Neo', the npc next to the stations from Enhanced Storage.
Liquid Tanks
  • Can be used for storing liquids and shows the fill level at the object itself.
  • All vanilla liquids represents their liquid color in the tank, some of them additionally have a light glow.
  • Only one liquid type can be stored in a single liquid tank, other items going back to the player if added.
  • All liquids, even from 'Frackin' Universe' are supported, unknown liquids from other mods using the liquid color from water.
  • The liquid tanks can be purchased from the new npc 'Neo' in the Outpost.
Capture Pod Cupboard
  • Can be used for storing Capture Pods and directly shows the preview image near the item slot.
  • The interface is optimized for Capture Pods and shows the images for all your captured creatures directly in the container.
  • It can be crafted in the Pet Station or can be purchased from the new npc 'Neo' in the Outpost.
Storage Matter
  • This new crafting material is used for all stations from Enhanced Storage.
  • It can be acquired as loot from slain monsters or from the Storage Matter Extractor.
Storage Matrix
  • Can be used for crafting all vanilla containers in one station.
  • Crafting a container requires Storage Matter.
  • A new tutorial quest, various S.A.I.L. messages and the main story introduce the player to the crafting station.
  • Can be found in the Outpost or can be purchased from the new npc 'Neo' in the Outpost.
Storage Matter Extractor
  • Can be used to "recycle" all kinds of containers to get back some Storage Matter.
  • The interface can be closed while processing.
  • The amount of acquired Storage Matter from recycling is random but the minimum amount is 1. The chance for getting a 2nd Storage Matter is 50% and 10% for a 3rd.
  • It can be purchased from 'Neo' in the Outpost.
Storage Manipulator
  • Can be used for modifying the slot count of containers. (requires Storage Matter)
  • Works with all vanilla containers and the ones from supported mods.
  • The required ingredients are calculated by the changed slot count, in contrast to the old slot count.
  • A new small quest from 'Neo' introduce the player to the new station.
  • Can be found in the Outpost or can be purchased from the new npc 'Neo' in the Outpost.
Shipment stations
  • Terramart Shipments (vanilla) still blasts all produce with a value of 30% to the Outpost, but now supports items from other mods as well.
  • Terramart Shipments 2.0 teleports produce with a value of 30% to the Outpost, which means you can place it even in underground.
  • Enhanced Shipments blasts all goods with a value of 20% to the Outpost, Can only be used in open spaces.

Is there a way to move the new elements of the Outpost somewhere else, like to the left of the bookstore mod? I know there isn't really anything in the area replaced by the Enhanced Storage store, but I'd rather replace rock than vanilla areas.
Maybe I'll try to figure out how to make a mod that makes an alternate location.

you could create a mod to remove items after death, its working principle is quite simple, but it would give a completely different approach to the game, if all items from the inventory were completely removed after death, it would create a positive circulation of weapons and armor, which would equalize the balance of resources and items in large modpacks

im having an issue where when you click the sort type a few times inside a container, the option dissapears and i cant click on it anymore. is there a fix for this?

Is it possible to add one to let the items of the chest, and the chest picked up in the backpack during the excavation, participate in the crafting of the crafting table?

Hi idk if you guys already know, (at least i didn't found anything) but this mods causes that FU guns (found on chest or npc's guns) doesn't shoot, remove this mods fix for me

@444monty I had that happen to me but then i found out that one of my mods had a invisible item in the container so I had to remove that mod and it fixed it

Not sure why this is happening, but whenever I try using the Storage Manipulator to increase a containers storage size, it just spits back whatever I put in. Looks like I'm stuck with ginormous containers for now. :steamsad:

Don't use both. Use this mod or Improved Containers.
