A container is an item that can store other things in it. Containers must be placed down and/or interacted with (Basket) to retrieve its contents.

Standard Containers

Standard containers are items that have storage slots similar to a blockhead's inventory and can be used to hold anything that can also fit into an inventory.

The contents of a basket can only be accessed if the basket is placed in one of a blockhead's seven base inventory slots. The contents of the others can only be accessed if it's placed in the world and opened by a blockhead.

In the case of a safe and display cabinet, its contents can only be accessed by a player in control of the blockhead who placed the object or an admin on a server.

Containers
Icon HD Name Type Description
Basket Tool "Carry more stuff."
Chest Item "Store things."
Display Cabinet Item "Display things safely."
Golden Chest Item ...
Portal Chest Item "Store things across worlds."
Safe Item "Safe from other players."
Shelf Item "Display things."
Shop Item "Sell items in multiplayer."
Freight Car Tool "Transport items via rail."

Stacking

Baskets cannot be stacked, but the other types of containers can with their own kind. Contents do not migrate if they're stacked together, but which unit from the stack is placed may not be predictable, although stacks appear to operate in a LIFO (Last In, First Out) manner.

Nesting

As they are items that will fit into an inventory slot, all types of containers may be stored within other containers. There is no limit to this process, so it is possible to have a chest inside a basket inside a basket inside a safe. Additional lag may be encountered if the level of nesting is too high.

Bucket

See also: Tin Bucket

A tin bucket is a limited container that can be used to pick up water, a Fish, or a shark. It can also hold paint or paint stripper until it's used up. While containing other materials, the bucket is treated as a different object.
