Phantom Storage

Phantom Storage

Ghostly flying pets that carry your stuff. Summon a Phantom Chest for items, a Phantom Tank for fluids and a Phantom Anchor to teleport to; saddle the chest and fly it, or open a gateway to your anchor. They follow you like an Allay, survive everything but /kill, and their contents are tied to you, not the pet.

🧳 Phantom Chest

• 108 slots (12×9) of personal storage
• 3×3 crafting grid, with one-click recipe fill when JEI or REI is installed
• Void filter: list junk once (cobblestone, rotten flesh...) and your Collector destroys it instead of storing it; drop anything on the trash can to destroy it
• Sort button: by name, amount or mod, ascending or descending, all from one button

🫙 Phantom Tank

• 4 tanks × 32 buckets, any fluid, modded ones included
• A tinted-glass jar in a ghostly ender chest frame, with flapping phantom wings and glowing phantom eyes. Every fluid shows as a stacked layer inside, so you can colour-arrange it.
• Buckets, bottles and modded tank items work in the GUI or straight on the pet
• Active tank: pick which tank in-world bucket use fills or drains; the action bar shows its exact level after each use
• Overfill / Drain all options: spill into or draw from the next tank automatically. Both are off by default, so nothing goes where you didn't expect.
• Rings like amethyst when you open it

⚓ Phantom Anchor

• A ghostly lodestone with windows onto the End portal's starfield and phantom wings, following you like the others
• Teleport to it with the charm: you land on a safe spot within 3 blocks of it
• Tell it to stay and it's anchored: its chunk stays loaded and ticking while you're online, and the charm takes you back to it from anywhere, even another dimension
• Look at it (up to 32 blocks, through walls) and use the charm to swap places
• An anchored anchor stays put through logouts, deaths, dimension changes and restarts
• Right-click it for its panel: where it is, a Stay here toggle and a dismiss button

🌀 Phantom Collector

• A small orb of the End portal's starfield with glowing eyes that gathers dropped items into your Phantom Chest storage
• Following, it collects round you; anchored, it keeps collecting round its spot (a mob farm, say) wherever you are, its chunk loaded while you're online
• Experience comes to you while it follows (Mending works); anchored, it's banked to take from its panel
• Its panel: range (3–12 blocks), a filter of what to take or skip, the XP bank, Stay here and dismiss
• What you throw yourself waits 5 seconds first (time to hand it to a friend), and the chest's void filter destroys your listed junk on the way in

🐎 Phantom Saddle

• A charm mode, no new entity: ride your Phantom Chest and fly it, a saddle on its lid
• Fly where you look: W/S along your view, A/D to strafe, Space to rise, sprint for double speed; let go and it hovers
• Ridden, it collides like any mount, keeping your head out of walls and ceilings
• No fall damage for it or you; sneak or use the charm again to get off

🚪 Phantom Gateway

• A doorway of the End portal's starfield in a ghostly lodestone frame, the phantom eyes peering out of the void
• Opens in front of you for 15 seconds and leads to your anchored Phantom Anchor, across dimensions
• Anyone can step through: you, friends, mobs, even dropped items
• Your following pets are brought along when you cross to another dimension
• Look steeply down or up to lay it flat: catch a falling friend (no fall damage), drop the whole group through the floor, or fly up into it on an elytra

🔔 Phantom Bell

• One ring summons every pet you've unlocked; sneak + ring sends every following pet home and closes your gateway
• Anchored pets keep their spots

✨ All pets

• Float like an Allay: trail you while you travel, drift around when you stop, settle at your side
• Look at one for half a second and it comes within reach
• Stay / follow toggle, recall to your side, name them with a name tag
• Owner-only: nobody else can open, move or lead them
• Invulnerable to everything but /kill
• Storage lives on the player, so it survives death, logout and dimension changes
• Never darker than light level 7; light up their surroundings with LambDynamicLights
• One look across every panel: night violet with gold trim, the pet's charm art by the title, cyan for what's active
• Client config (in-game from the Mods list): opacity for all pets or each one, and glow on/off per pet

Upgrading from 2.x: 3.0 keeps your storage, tanks and charms.
