Crafted versions of certain containers, that are found in the world have more slots and are much, much more durable. <snip>

 

Most if not all containers you find in POIs have much smaller storage slots for looting convenience and are way weaker than the ones you craft.

 

Once I go into SDX modding with A17, I will be adding custom models for blocks and I do have plans to add custom storage solutions, that might look something like you posted in those images

 

Hm, I didn't think about durability as a differentiator. Good stuff, though probably matters more for PVP, which ain't me.

 

Awesome, looking forward to your models. If the quality bump even approaches what you've done with the inventory icons, we're in for a treat!

 

BTW: I can totally see not being able to craft a bullet press at any skill level in this game, but I can't make a bread pan, ever,

+ while I *can* make an auto-turret? Seems a bit off

 

It works, you can even attach signs.

Wouldn't recommend though, it's noisy.

 

Neat! Gonna test in creative and see if I can tolerate the racket

It's intentional, because in the mod mid and late game you can craft secure furniture of various kind, that have 60, 100, 120 slot sizes. wooden boxes and chests are early game storage solution.

 

Problem with vanilla is that nobody even bothers checking out other storage solutions and just stick with the boring boxes/chests and never bother checking out or crafting other storage containers / furniture.

 

Oh, I see the other furniture units, and it's awesome that you can craft them in the mod, at least for the aesthetics. But those things are 2 blocks high, double the size of the chests/boxes/munitions crates.

 

Storage per block:

 

Chest/box: 49

Filing cabinet: 30

Fridge: 50

Safe: 60

Munitions box: 100

Dumpster: 30(?)

 

So the filing cabinet is actually worse on a per-block basis, the fridge is breakeven, the safe a bit bigger, and the dumpster is probably terrible. I guess I could stack fridges or safes on their sides and see if that works, but now I have to redesign my base to fit them lmao

 

What would be cool, and maybe more in line with what you're after, would be high-capacity 1x1x1 cabinets of various kinds. The kitchen types are obvious, but I'm looking at all these mechanical, electrical, and automotive components and thinking, gee, IRL I would have some of those humongous chests with 348057348 little drawers in them for all the different items

There was no update to the mod for quite a while, because I'm currently busy working on 1.4.0.0 update for UL, try cleaning up your mod launcher files and redownloading the mod. Last update for UL was: 2018-03-16

 

Thanks. You're completely right. Something else was in play, and this got fixed by deleting the mod launcher's UL folder and re-downloading it.

 

Totally loving the mod so far, just got through my first horde night, but one feature request: At least in the expanded backpack version, the regular chests and storage boxes are entirely too small. IMHO they should be at least as big as in Vanilla. I find myself just spawning in munitions boxes to make up for that, but they're deficient, too, since you can't mount a sign on one of them that isn't placed either on a floor or ceiling.

An update came in today via the mod launcher. Usually, when I click on an item in my inventory, the UI panel in the middle shows the item stats (damage, damage resistance, etc.) plus the actions menu (repair, equip, drop, etc.). That stuff is now appearing below the middle panel, so only the very top of it is visible. Screenshot attached.
