Lady: Oh no, my storage system just won't sort!
*A knock at the door. Enter storage repairman*
Storage Repairman: I'll need to use this piston to put my end rod in your composter.
Lady: Oh my. Filter the dispenser!
Storage Repairman: You don't mind an observer, do you?
*Cue note blocks. Bow chicky bow bow*

Did you get it to work well on paper?

That's the one! I made a test slice and paper was definitely creating problems, resulting in the unloading of filter items from the filter chests when a new item type was introduced. But, I got it working by increasing the delay between different item types by about 1 second. It's a bit slower than the original, but I'm not terribly concerned with the speed of sorting. If I needed the stuff right now, I wouldn't have put it into the storage system (I say as I accidentally put my pick in the sorter). I've stress tested it and it is working. We'll see if it has any unexpected hiccups.
 
Oh I see your posts in milos discord now, didn't recognize you due to the differing name :D
The sorter is amazing, though I haven't built it on hangouts yet (planning to do that on perm at some point).
Been working with the two(+) of them on some other projects lately, their knowledge about redstone is quite amazing - I am still not quite on par with them :P
Well done on building it up and enjoy it :>
 
I'll let you know if I run into any server-related issues.

Very cool. Are you working with them on the furnace array? I heard rapscallion mention that was in the works. They are geniuses. I'm just a copier that knows enough to troubleshoot or make very minor adjustments.
 
We have been playing around with a (not really announced) puzzle map by rap, milo and datnerd, working on my planned and upcoming, yet unannounced perm project a bit, talking about various sorting and storage mechanisms and testing some snapshot stuff.
Theres one exciting extension/use case for MISS that we started working on as well, but I haven't had much time lately to get things done (as evidenced by the fact that I haven't been on hangouts much lately either)
 
The system is the reservationless multi item sorter by Rapscallion, metamilo and datnerd, see here - basically, an item sorter that doesn't have one item type per chest, but each column of chests can hold up to 54 different item types, but also does not require you to fill up each empty slot of the storage chests with garbage items.
Its quite the complex system, but it certainly is one of the greatest storage systems ever devised!
 
The general idea behind it is to set up a short-lived variable filter, aka it uses an item to be sorted as a filter to try and pull an item from a double chest above. If successful, it remembers that it was, flushes the filter and puts one item back into the chest above.
With the pre-sorter they added in front of the system, it will group items to do stacks of one item type at a time, with a short delay in between item types.
While there is no such delay, it will just continue flushing items into the storage chests. As soon as there is a short delay between items, it will reset to the ground state, meaning the next item that comes in will be checked against the filter chest again.

Hope that explains the general idea behind it ^.^
 
Mysticals looks a lot like Tango's, maybe try that one for a reservation based system. Personally, I don't think any design other than super basic sorters and metamilos will ever be an option again - its just too damn good :P
