I made it a new project, for 50 slots and over: http://www.planetminecraft.com/project/100-automated-bank-system-50-slots/
Minecraft automated Bank system, with 10 "bank accounts" (storage units)
Well, were to start off.
I decided i wanted to see if there was some nice automated storage devices out there, and there was, for up to 3 carts. and all the one's with more was buggy as hell, theres one here called "automated minecart storage" but its so buggy and needs a restart function all the time. And asides from that, the place the minecart stop's so you can collect or store, is just plain stupid ( no offense to the maker).
whats even worse is people calling things "automated storage" and it realy isnt automated its just a good organized system of chests.
as of yesterday my knowledge of redstone was crap, but i decided to sit down and learn, its easy and quick. and you get what you want in the end.
So far it is for 10 "bank accounts", and they all work without fail. theres a "failsafe" or moron lock or whatever you want to call it, but i cant get it to activate as fast as i want, and one of my friends couldnt help him self but push alot of buttons fast, but you realy need to try to ruin this, to be able to.
To turn on and off circuits to return the cart's to they're designated station's, sticky pistons is used to block redstone circuits and toggle the rail's until its toggled one last time before its back to its designated storage position, and resets the system. the first rail doesnt use any detector rails to change anything because it doesnt need to.
The pictures will most likely speak for itself to those with a bit of redstone knowledge, to the cheapskates, im sorry at this moment since im not releasing a world save or a schematic. i will upload them, some time after we open our server to the public.
More info is that the entire vault will be protected by bedrock, as well as the buttons to call minecarts. admins or people with the rights to enter through /warp plugins will be able to work the bank. but the station here is just simple and will be changed, to have one "send" back button on each side so that the ones working the bank can send back the minecart if the person withdrawing or depositing items forget to. and to be able to see that there will be an indicator lamp,
there's a couple of more things i would like to add. for example im adding 2-3 more layers, so 20-30 more storage units, wich will all go to the same terminal.
'm sorry that i tend to over explain here and there, but i guess its the screen shots and what it really is you guys was here for.
Update 1:
Things take a while, and i had a computer crash a few days ago, and stupid as i am, all the backups was on the second partition on the same harddrive as the server (stupidity), and then the HDD crashed.
Been doing some work, and been busy so no new screenshot yet, but it has been updated.
so i release the 10 slot system now, first of all so i get a third backup, and id like some idea's on how to optimalize the system as it is now, and add that to the additional layers and shit im working on now.
Thank you, Ohjeey.
As the server im admin on will be a RPG kind of server, this system is worth more than diamonds, as it adds "interactions" and that is exactly what we want.

Additional Notes
its allowed to come with constructive criticism , but this is as compact i could make it, when the system is fully fixed with 2-3 more layers of storage units, it will be easy to add even more with almost only copying with for example, MCedit, and very basic redstone wiring.As the server im admin on will be a RPG kind of server, this system is worth more than diamonds, as it adds "interactions" and that is exactly what we want.
Credit | Me, more me, and thanks to the fail systems that made me make this, and a few videos on youtube for showing compact T-Flip Flops |
Progress | 100% complete |

There should be bedrock at the bottom, just quite a bit underground. At least i tought i added it.
If theres something not working now i want to take a look at it when i get a server running again with a few friends. it was a fun project, and i actually wanted to try and make a 100slot one.
Now im thinkin of making one for just normal storage as well, without the "bank" feel. but more of a storage item, where everything is stored underground. and doesnt take up much space. But we will see. 800 downloads while ive been gone is actually a lot more than i tought i would get. Added it here, for others and to log my work. I am aware that certain of the redstone circuits could screw up when copying. There should be an easy fix to it, as theres buttons to control every singel flip-flop/part of the circuit. to reset whatever is in the wrong state, or to check if things work. Should have added pictures of these.
But this was my first project ever released to anyone else than on my server. and the first big "construction" i made to work, purely vanilla. Id have to see how things are with the new patches. As it would probably be better to start from scratch now, or create something new.
Allthough it needs an admin online to withdraw or deposit item's. and for servers with no protection plugins, the vault and call buttons is guarded by bedrock.
call minecart, withdraw/deposit, send cart back
And im gonne make a youtube video most likely, so people see how it works before the vault is encased in "adminium"(bedrock), to make it griefer and thief secure. the server is running on pre-releases so we do not have protection plugins, so im making it so people do not need a plugin for this to be safe.
Just for fun im gonne make a huge system with about 100 storage units, to see how well it runs.
but cant realy say it will work good on all computer's since i got a high end one. so a limit to 2-4 layers(20-40) storage units is probably the safest for server's. alltough no looping circuits so shouldnt use to much cpu.
sorry for my walls of text, but it kinda helps me remember things for myself too.
wich is the main reason i joined here.
note to self: Make it trigger a lot earlier in the circuit, and turn off like it allready does, when the cart is safely back at storage depot
