MondoChest
Do you like having your materials all neatly organized into different chests, but hate the work required to organize them? Do you find yourself dumping everything into one chest, to deal with it later? MondoChest is for you.

How it Works
MondoChest lets you designate a master chest (by using a special sign) where you can dump your stuff. You then designate "slave" chests where your stuff will go to. They can be downstairs, upstairs, in another room, however you like (within a configurable radius.)
MondoChest will then see what's in each chest, and then decides where things get 'shelved' based on what's already in there. For example, one slave box has rails and powered rails in it, and another has wood planks and logs in it. If you dump wood into the master chest, it will be moved into the appropriate slave.
How to Use
Step 1
Designate a master chest by putting a "[MondoChest]" sign next to the chest.
now right-click the MondoChest sign, you should see a message like: MondoChest: Created bank with 0 chests.
Step 2
For any storage chests you have, create a sign with the first line containing "[MondoSlave]" next to the chest.
Note the sign must be a wall-mounted sign, signs standing on posts will not work.
right-click the slave sign to add it to the MondoChest bank you created, and repeat for any number of slave chests.
You will see a message like: MondoChest: Added 2 slaves to bank
Step 3
Any time you have new items to sort, dump items into the master chest and then right-click the MondoChest sign. Items will be moved into a slave chest which already contains that item. Any items which don't have a known destination chest will stay in the source chest
Installation/Configuration
To install, place MondoChest.jar in your plugins folder. A configuration file will be created with default configuration.
For detailed configuration docs, read Configuration
Tips and Tricks
- chests can be on any side of the sign, and one [MondoSlave] sign can handle multiple chests, allowing you to save on signs: Chest Positioning Example
- Don't like seeing the signs in your pretty chest room? dig a hole under the chest, and hide the [MondoSlave] sign down there. Sideways signs can also go behind chests in the wall.
- Multiple master chests can share the same slave chests. For example, you can have a MondoChest at the front gate and another at the rear gate of your castle, and everything gets shelved into the slaves in the castle vault downstairs. Do this by clicking one master, then run around right-clicking all the slaves to add them to the master. Repeat this for any other masters.

Is this plugin compatable with Lockette or Deadbolt. I want to know this because it would stop greifing on my server a lot.
Just have to say, I have been using this plugin for a few months, and I absolutely LOVE IT. Finally someone who cares more about my OCD than I do!!!! Thanks and keep up the stellar work!!!
Just throwing out a longshot feature idea. But it would be cool if you could do /mondo craft <itemname> and it would craft the item and put it in your inventory using materials in your mondo chest network.
Would having one sign on a wall, and multiple signs on that sign work? Just wondering because i have a wall of chests for a storage system.
Dreadcraft.net has been running this for some time now! www.dreadcraft.net
Love love LOVE this plugin on our server!
Here's the quick and dirty demo I made for our users: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ry3WPmHQ5fI

Can you go up to the Tickets link at the top and post a new ticket? Include your mondochest config as well, and then you'll have a support ticket that I can add comments to
No matter how hard I try I can't make groups work for mondochest. I was trying to get groupmanager to forbid guests to have chests and let normal, regulars and vip groups different amount of chests but noone can make chests then.
Been trying like hell. :(
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxfLMuMtFng Here's the video, I hope it's ok, and that you'll post it on the page. :) Thanks a ton in advance if you do.
I made a video and will be uploading soon, should I post the link here? I will assume yes if I don't hear a quick answer. Great plugin by the way!!!!!
Hello. I recently started making Bukkit plugin videos. I would love to make one for this plugin, however I can't until Wednesday or Thursday of next week. I was wondering...if I did make one, would you put it on this page?
Thanks for the update :), great plugin
@Empeefive
Actually I'm using it on my server so it's not only SSP.
@kay_gee12
It's in the works.
Awesome plugin,thanks for the hard work!
One suggestion: Iron Chests support
It is a SSP mod, but I am using both on MCPC 1.5.2. don't know how that may complicate things.
Hey there, love the plugin, but I was wondering if you planned on adding trapped chest support, specifically for slave chests.
Would love an option for admin command to search for existing chest in a fixed radius and add and verify theyve been added, been doing a lot of world editing and every time i move the "vault" some 100 chests its a lot of work to re-add them. especially with the occasional hickup under mcpc-plus :) Also re adding a second master chest would it be possible to simply click first master sign then click new master sign to add the new master to that network as second master ?
I found a bug or a feature request depending on how you look at it.
In an effort to create a dynamic array, the hoppers in this pic fill up and the items come unsearchable while it waits on room in the chest below it causing MANY stacks of unsearchable items. Is there a way to add support for the storage inside of a hopper?
@TarragonRill
Is the sign spelled correctly? [MondoChest] with no spaces and capitalized as shown. Also, did you give yourself the appropriate permissions to add master chests?
