When I came back to the game, the biggest problem was inventory management! My sorting + storage solution combines several different systems - here are the features:
- 2x intake/sorting speed
- Can take any item type (stackables, nonstackables, full/empty shulker boxes)
- Multi-item/category sorting
- Bulk item sorting + shulker compression
- Chunk-loaded (machine won't unload when you travel out of range/to the nether and fits inside a 3x3 chunk area)

One thing I also want to call out here is how brilliant @MaizumaGames 's original system is - the ability to have 1-wide category assignment of items is just absolutely mindblowing to me, and the solution is so elegant and easy to understand.

I also believe I may have made a novel contribution to multi-item sorting tech (at least, as far as I know, I haven't seen this approach/modification for multi-item sorting up to the release of this video)! I'm calling it Allay Accelerated Multi-Item/Category sorting! It's certainly not the fastest, but it's reasonably effective, and fun! :P

Ver02 (Jun 17, 2023): https://www.mediafire.com/file/76s5tkm18jzuksm/toots_thielemans_AA_MIS_system_worldsaveV02.zip/file
- corrected orientation of systems so they were consistent with the curved rail patterns (current item system rails are correct if you are facing west when you are looking in from the main entrance of the room)
- added guide for curved rails based on north/south/east/west direction of the minecart (straight powered rails are fine everywhere, but are just a bit slower!)
- added note about resetting allays if trying to copy + paste schematic into world
- added a cross section of the full AA 1.0/2.0 MIS + bulk sorting

For anyone having trouble getting the allays in place, here's a mini-guide (the fuller tutorial will explain this in more detail): https://imgur.com/a/1P7fHMG

SHADERS:
Sildur's Vibrant Shaders v 1.40 High shader pack: https://sildurs-shaders.github.io/

The default options are pretty crap, so if you're using them/planning on using them and haven't tweaked any settings, I'd start with the following:
Shader Pack Options/Emissive Light/
Minimum Light: 0.030
red: 1.1
green: 0.7
blue: 0.5

UPDATE (Jul 12, 2023): The mini-tutorial on the Allay Acceleration upgrade is out!
HERE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1BNMhvN5a0
This video is a step-by-step guide for upgrading Maizuma's category sorting system with Allay Acceleration - relatively small modifications for roughly a 360% speed boost in your category sorting!

UPDATE (Jun 17, 2023): Thanks everyone for the comments, feedback, and general interest in my storage system - I was completely blown away! I've also received enough requests - I'll be doing a full tutorial for the system! Please give me a bit of time to pull it together, there are a ton of pieces and the editing will take me a while. I've already started on recording footage for it, though!

But before that, I'll be releasing a mini-tutorial: How to double/triple your MIS sorting speed with Allay Acceleration! (step by step directions on how to upgrade Maizuma's MIS with Allay Acceleration). This will contain most of the vital info for those primarily interested in building that part of the sorting system.
