Title hopper limit/ possible tps lag fix alternatives

Description of suggestion
Option 1: Slimefun Smart Storage Units
Description:
Allow the use of Smart Storage Units (and their Cargo integration) from Slimefun. These blocks can store over 1 million of a single item type. They work well with the Chest Terminal system for centralized, lag-free storage.

Pros:
Stores over 1 million items in 1 block.

Fully compatible with Slimefun automation (Cargo, Terminals).

No hoppers or item entities, which reduces lag.

Cons:
Only works for 1 item type per unit.

Players unfamiliar with Slimefun may need guidance.

Alot of the slimefun plugin has to get reworked if storage units only are allowed/added


Option 2: Infinity Chest Plugin / Quantum Storage
Description:
Add a plugin or system like InfinityChest or Quantum Storage that allows unlimited stacking of one item type per chest or block. Items are stored digitally, reducing lag from entities and physical storage.

Pros:
Can store millions or unlimited of an item in 1 block.

No lag from physical items or blocks.

Simple concept — easy for players to use.

Cons:
Requires an external plugin.

Potential for abuse if not restricted or balanced.

Might reduce incentive for players to build automated storage setups.


Option 3: Virtual GUI-Based Storage (/vault, /storage)
Description:
Use a command-based, GUI storage system where items are stored virtually (like EnderChest, but much larger). Players can access items without placing blocks or entities.

Pros:
Zero lag, because items don’t exist in the world.

Extremely clean and player-friendly.

Easily tied to ranks, upgrades, or quests.

Cons:
Breaks immersion for players who enjoy physical builds.

Might conflict with economy or chest shops.

Requires external plugin and proper permission setup.
