Memory Banks are stored under <minecraft dir>/chesttracker, and are composed of two files: the data file (e.g. New World.nbt), and a JSON metadata file (New World.nbt.meta).

The ID (filename) of the memory bank. The default formats are:

• Singleplayer: singleplayer/<world folder name>
• Multiplayer: multiplayer/<server ip>
• Realms: realms/<encoded realms ID>
• LAN: lan/<motd> - the MOTD is usually the world folder name

The ID is obfuscated by default, so as not to leak the IP or realm ID in the case of screenshots / streaming. You can change this in the global Chest Tracker settings.

The user-facing name of this memory bank. The default formats are:

• Singleplayer: World name as it displays in the server list
• Multiplayer: Name of the server entry, or 'A Minecraft Server' for direct connections
• Realms: Name of the realm
• LAN: MOTD of the LAN server

Returns to the Memory Bank Settings screen. Changes to memory keys are saved with the memory bank settings.

This section goes over each category's settings, first going left-to-right then top-down order.

Settings to help make Chest Tracker more compatible with certain servers, for example with resource packs.

Some servers provide a custom resource pack that modifies the default font file, resulting in Chest Tracker rendering unwanted textures for container names:

This setting allows you to filter certain groups of characters out of names.

Options:

• None (No filtering)
• ASCII only (Only allow ASCII characters in container names)
• Basic Unicode (Only allow characters up to \u33FF, which supports most scripts except for Chinese, Korean and Japanese).

Whether Chest Tracker should display container names at all.

Settings related to filtering what containers get saved.

Whether Chest Tracker should only remember containers with a custom name. Custom name detection is done by checking whether the title component is translatable.

Default: Off

Which containers Chest Tracker should remember items from.

Options:

• All Containers
• Common Containers (Chests, Barrels & Shulker Boxes)

Default: All Containers

Whether items with an inventory, such as Shulker Boxes or [Ctrl]-clicked chests in creative, should automatically be added as a memory.

Options:

• Yes (everything with an inventory)
• Shulker Boxes (only auto-add Shulker Boxes)
• No (don't add memories from placed blocks

Default: Shulker Boxes

Whether to track items from a player's Ender Chest.

Default: On

Settings related to keeping inventory data as up-to-date as possible.

Whether to exempt containers with a custom name from being pruned by the lifetime check below.

Default: On

How to count time passed, for the purposes of the maximum lifetime check.

Options:

• Bank Loaded Time: How long this specific memory bank has been loaded in-game.
• Real Time: How much time has passed in the real world.
• World Loaded Time: How long the given world has been loaded, as tracked by the server.

Default: Bank Loaded Time

How old a memory has to be before it's considered 'out of date' and forgotten by Chest Tracker. Uses the above time counting method.

Options: [10 seconds, 1 week] or never expires

Default: 12 hours

Whether to remove memories at a given position when a block there is broken by the player.

Default: On

Chest Tracker periodically checks memories that are nearby to see if they are still present in the world. This can catch cases where containers were broken while you were offline, or not by you.

Default: On

Only available if the edited memory bank is loaded. Allows you to manage some memories yourself.

The working range, in blocks, for the two buttons below.

Allows you to delete all memories in the current key within X blocks of your player's current position. The bracketed number at the end is the number of memories that will be affected by this action.

Allows you to delete all memories in the current key outside of X blocks of your player's current position. The bracketed number at the end is the number of memories that will be affected by this action.

Options:

• Merge All: Merge all matching stacks into one with a large count.
• Within Container: Merge all matching stacks within each container, but keep stacks from different containers separated.
• Never Merge: Don't merge stacks.

Default: Merge All
