Sophisticated Storage In Motion guide for All the Mods 10 2.16 to 2.19

Sophisticated Storage In Motion is included in this pack at version 0.1.2, built for Minecraft 1.21.1 (file sophisticatedstorageinmotion-1.21.1-0.1.2.15.jar). It has been in the pack since version 2.16 or earlier, so it isn't a new addition. If you're updating from an older version of the pack, it should already be in your instance.^[1]

Unverified I couldn't confirm from the available sources what the mod adds or how it plays. There is no in-jar guidebook or platform description to draw on, so I won't guess at its features, items or recipes.

Unverified I also couldn't confirm where the mod fits in this pack's progression. No quests involving it turned up, and it isn't on the ATM Star quest path, so you won't be nudged toward it by the questbook.

The first thing to make with Sophisticated Storage In Motion is the Storage Minecart. It is the only item from this mod that I can confirm a recipe for in this pack, so it's the obvious starting point.^[2]

The pack lists it as the mod's own recipe, and I found no sign that the pack changed it. Here is the exact in-pack recipe:^[2]

Storage MinecartMod recipe

Moving Storage From Storage (sophisticatedstorageinmotion)

• Minecart
• any all storage

Recipe id: sophisticatedstorageinmotion:storage_minecart

The recipe takes a storage block from Sophisticated Storage, so you'll need one of those first.

Since it builds on Sophisticated Storage, make that mod's storage first. The recipe accepts the mod's storage blocks as a group, not one specific block.^[2]

Unverified No quests in this pack involve this mod, and no guidebook or tooltips were available. I can't confirm how the minecart behaves in play, such as its capacity, upgrades or how it keeps contents. Check in-game before relying on any of that.

The one thing the sources let me confirm about Sophisticated Storage In Motion in this pack is the Storage Minecart. It's the mod's way of putting your storage on rails, and you get it by crafting it from the storage you already have, not from a separate machine or multiblock.^[2]

Storage MinecartMod recipe

Moving Storage From Storage (sophisticatedstorageinmotion)

• Minecart
• any all storage

Recipe id: sophisticatedstorageinmotion:storage_minecart

This is the mod's own recipe (moving_storage_from_storage), so the pack doesn't change it.

The recipe accepts any item from the Sophisticated Storage storage tag, so you aren't tied to one specific storage type. The minecart's name is a template that gets filled in, which is why the raw item name reads "%s Minecart".^[2]

Unverified The sources don't explain how the minecart behaves once it's crafted. That includes its inventory size, whether it keeps the contents or upgrades of the storage it was made from, how to open it, and how hoppers, pipes or other automation interact with it. The mod has no config files in the pack, and no guidebook or lang descriptions were available. Test these in your own world before you build anything around them.

The recipe data for this pack confirms only one thing about Sophisticated Storage In Motion: the Storage Minecart. It uses a standard mod recipe, so the pack hasn't changed it. You make it from storage you already have, not from a separate crafting chain.^[2]

Storage MinecartMod recipe

Moving Storage From Storage (sophisticatedstorageinmotion)

• Minecart
• any all storage

Recipe id: sophisticatedstorageinmotion:storage_minecart

The in-pack recipe, exactly as the pack uses it.

So your progression with this mod starts with Sophisticated Storage. Once you have a storage container you like, you can turn it into a minecart with this recipe.^[2]

Unverified I couldn't confirm any quests for this mod, any tier-by-tier breakdown of the minecarts, or any pack-specific config changes. Treat anything beyond the recipe above as unverified.
