Ok, this is awesome. I was testing it in singleplayer and on a paper server. I saw a few issue on paper server and by reading the comments section I saw you already talked about it so I won't elaborate on those.

However, there others issue (in singleplayer 1.21.11) :
- When using the hopper upgrade, the hopper next to the drawer is locked (as powered by redstone) so it doesn't suck up item.
- I managed to use the iron upgrade but none of the other (diamond, star, netherite) to augment the capacity

Here are some of my unpopular opinion :
- I'm not fond of the custom heavy crafter. I use the recipes book a lot and it is not available in the heavy crafter
- I can see you wanted to make the crafts not so cheap but there is a lot of cascading craft to do (drawer -> drawer frame -> compacting drawer) which is more like a mod and not so vanilla friendly. Plus, crafters can not be used to automatically make complicated drawers.
- As currently resin is utterly useless, I think your crafting recipes can make use of it.
- All drawers should be hopper compatible by default without an upgrade needed
- Upgrades should be integrated in the crafting process (recipes) to be more vanilla friendly and simpler. This would avoid the need for custom items and the applying/removing mechanic that look complicated (as it does not work for me)

Don't take my comment for a rant on your work. You made a very good job and I'm sure it will be better and better. I know very well that datapacks have a lots of limitations and each Minecraft update break things.

Hello, thanks for the suggestions, but as you predicted it, theses are mostly vanilla limitations, i also know about the paper issue, but they don't want to fix it : https://github.com/PaperMC/Paper/issues/13265#issuecomment-3706041166



- The hopper on top issue is part of ItemIO lib (which i'm the creator), i looked at the code a bit (3 years old) and found a fix.

- Upgrades are in order, so you need to apply iron, then gold, diamond, star en netherite

- I know, but i want some crafts that use Simpledrawer items as ingredient, and this is impossible to do without data driven items, and having a mix of both does feels right
- I wanted to make them more precious and endgame, and not cascading will make them not precious to have
- Good point, if i have another block or item to add i will definitely use resin

- Even with good optimization, hopper compatibility is very laggy, would be solved if minecraft added custom block

- I like the upgrade personally, also i should add a subtitle about what error occurred



Thank you again for your comment, i really appreciate it

Hey, I currently have a server with version 1.21.10. However, there is a display problem and I don't know what's causing it. First, a purple cross is shown on the drawer. Also, I can craft the drawer with wood and it shows the wood-colored drawer in the inventory. But as soon as I place it, it only shows the standard version.
Did I do something wrong? Is it because of the version, or do you have any idea what the problem is?

If your server runs on papers, there is an issue with that : https://github.com/PaperMC/Paper/issues/13265 & https://github.com/edayot/SimpleDrawer/issues/46

history
Datapack has a lot of Z-fighting on a server.
Other players don't see the problem.
Also regular barrels now have the image of the heavy workbench as their inventory
(could it be related that the datapack was added after world creation?)
