This filtered shulker box array is fully hopperlockedDefinition: Hopper-locking powers inactive hoppers with redstone to prevent them from doing anything, reducing lag. Because a locked hopper can’t move items, it can skip several expensive checks each tick and ... and uses only 4 hoppers in each sliceDefinition: A repeatable ( Preferably tileable ) component within a system..

Features

• Fully hopperlocked
• Low hopper count: 4 hoppers/slice
• 9x9 Size
• Signal strength independentDefinition: Signal strength isolated, signal strength independent, or SSI all refer to item filter designs which cannot crosstalk with each other regardless of signal strength output. This is done by A/B tilin... filters
• Water collection
• Can be stacked vertically (128x hopperspeedDefinition: Refers to the speed at which items are processed in a hopper (1 item every 8gt, or 2.5 items per second). Usually written as an integer (e.g. '3x hopper speed'). ## Common hopperspeeds 1x: 9000 ite... 2x2 layout schematicDefinition: Typically a .litematic file or a .schematic file in older versions or with different mods than litematica. It is a blueprint that tells you how to build redstone builds, tells you what materials yo... included)

Considerations

• While there is a 1x loaderDefinition: A contraption that fills a shulkerbox with items and then breaks the shulkerbox. every 1 wide slice, you need to AB tile 2 wide slices containing 2 loaders at a time.
• Waterstream box distribution is required
• Waterstream requires gaps in ice for hopperlocking

Notes

• The base schematic contains a 32x hopperspeed capacity.
• Empty boxes dispensing is triggered when a full box is output with a 1:1 ratio. If you run out of boxes, you will have to manually dump in empty boxes in the box distribution stream to refill the loaders. GlobalDefinition: Annotates if a signal comes from a global system ( a 'brain' ), or from within a Slice. For example, one global clock could send signals to 8 slices on an interval, or all 8 slices could have their... call based distribution coming soon:tm:

Instructions

1. Setup hopper filters
2. Unlock loaders by flicking the hopperlocking lever on red concrete block at the bottom corner of the device
3. Dump item entities into input
4. Relock loaders only after everything has been loaded into boxes. Engaging locking while loader is active may cause box replacement to fail.
