[Suggestion] Priority system
Hi

Not knowing how the sorter chooses which storage box to use would it be possible to add a priority mechanism so you could say have a box named "WOOD - Sort 1" and one "WOOD - Sort 2" and it would try to fill them in order.

On our server we have several storage boxes for some items where one is our main point of access and the others are overflows so it would be good if the sorter always topped up the main access box first then started using the overflows.

This is an invaluable mod on our low player count server as it saves so much time sorting the resources as we gather them, brilliant work keep it up.

I'd put a plus 1 on this suggestion, because some of our containers get full, some of them have overflow backup, and sometimes stuff needs to go right to a crafting station and nowhere else.

+1 to this... plus the option to select a max so wood:1000 sort 1 would only move 1k wood into that (can you check inventory before moving?) first.. then rest of wood to other storage

+1 also to not only push item but also pull them into the sorter from anywhere like (storagename - pull) to vaccum sorter than (storagename - sort) so it could be easier for working with other mod that are already use to collect some items from crop and stuff like this and re-sort them where you want .... a freezer or even a fridge

just so you know, also adding S+ helps with some of the stages of this.

im not sure to see what you mean I don't think s+ have stuff like this and if it does please tell me wich items to use :)

there are several s+ items for collecting crops, wool, seeds, etc, and there's functionality for pulling from one container to another
