FTB: Ender Storage chests
 

Because of the possibility of having 2 players trying to use the same colour combination for their ender storage chests, and having those chests conflicting with someone elses, I thought I'd start this thread so players can reserve/register a colour combination for their ender chests.

The idea is that you can claim the first 2 colours as your unique ender chest code. So all your ender chests should then use those 2 colours (in your chosen order*) and you can pick the 3rd colour from any other colour dye. Which will then give you plenty of combinations that should be unique to you, allowing you to have multiple ender chests in your 'code'

EG, if you reserve "Light Blue, Magenta" as your colour code. You can make chests that are: Light Blue/Magenta/Red, Light Blue/Magenta/Lime, Light Blue/Magenta/Orange and so on (as shown in the pic below)

*Note that if you choose Lime/Red as your colour combination, someone else can choose Red/Lime as their colour combination. You are defining the first 2 colours and the order they are in.

To colour the chest either create it with the colour wools you want, or after you've made it - click on the wool part with the dye you want to colour it with (to lock a chest so it won't connect to another chest of the same colour, click the lock on the front of the chest with a diamond {it will consume the diamond, but you get the diamond back if you break the chest, and it appears a locked chest won't work with an ender pouch})

It's probably a good idea to check your preferred colour combination first, to see if anyone is already using that. Then reply to this post with the colour combo you want and I'll add it to this list.

A note on ender chests - Our basic server rules regarding chest contents apply to ender chests. If the contents of a chest are not yours (you didn't place them into the chest and don't own them) - you are not to take them.

Good idea :)

I'll take green, green (the cactus green variant, not any lighter variant)

Also, for clarification, Light Blue/Magenta is different from Magenta/Light Blue. Order matters. There are plenty of two color combinations, so no one will get left out.

Ooooh I will take ummm, oh the pressure,

Red/Yellow

I already chose obnoxious colors. Sign me up for Pink/Yellow.

Blue/Black/Red please. :)

Erudite, Candor/Dauntless, Amity ;) :D

I have had my ender chest up for 4 days as purple, not sure what that now means.

We have others set up but I will get the guys to post their colours.

FYI, for those like me making a new chest... the lock depends on the color of the wool you're using when you make it. Or I'm doing this wrong.

Can someone post instructions on this? Also, how the heck do you get red and black dye? NEI says to use a squeezer and yet when I do that, then the squeezer says no recipe. ARGH :P

You're doing it wrong. :p

Red flowers make red. Use ink sacks for black, as in, just click on the nub with the ink sack.

Or you simply put your ender chest in the crafting window, in the center, with the three dye below it in the order you want.

Brown is from cocoa. Black is ink sacs. Blue is lapis, or in mindcrack the indigo flowers. Yellow is dandelions, red is roses, green is from cooked cacti. And then for other shades it's pretty much a matter of mixing.

As a note, with the available colors (16), combining the first two gives up to 256 unique combinations, which would then allow for up to 16 different chests for each of those 256 people.

Perhaps single color chests, which I believe are separate styles of chests, can be some sort of community sharing chest.
