📖 SmartSorter Player Tutorial

A complete guide on how to use SmartSorter to automate your storage!

🎮 Getting Started - The Basics

Smart Sorter automatically moves and sorts items from chests into organized storage - like hoppers but WAY smarter!

The 5 Main Blocks:

🟦 Intake Block – Pulls items FROM chests or farm hoppers.
🟨 Output Probe – Pushes items INTO specific chests.
🟥 Storage Controller – The "brain" that manages the network, search GUI, and XP bank.
🟩 Process Probe – Controls furnaces/machines with Redstone logic.
🔧 Linking Tool – Connects all components together.

🎯 What Makes It Unique?

🚀 Industrial Scale (500+ Chests)

Built for efficiency, Smart Sorter handles 500+ connected inventories with ease. It is the perfect performance-friendly choice for technical mega-bases and massive modpacks.

💎 The XP Reservoir

The Storage Controller automatically accumulates all XP generated by your connected furnaces. Collect your entire base’s XP bank with a single button press in the Controller GUI.

🔥 Redstone-Powered Automation

Using the Process Probe, you can build advanced factory lines:

The Connection: Place a Process Probe on your furnace/machine and link it to the Controller.
The Power: Apply a Redstone signal (Redstone Dust + a Lever) to activate the probe.
The Result: It automatically pulls fuel and raw materials from your storage and returns the finished products to your prioritized chests.

🛠️ Quick Start Guide

1. Simple 2-Chest Sorter (No Controller Needed)

Place blocks: [Input Chest] ← [Intake] ... [Output Probe] → [Target Chest]
