Yes - what's stopping you? If you're wondering how to designate types allowed in each slot consider adding a label array to the slot and when finding a slot add the condition that the item's type is in the slot's 'storableTypes' array.

Your code sets a label 'maxItems' to 2 for every slot. In what way is that storing two types of items in a single slot? Have I misunderstood your requirement?

How did you want to specify the types to be stored? In advance or as they arrive?

How did you want to specify slot capacity? Fixed numbers? By Type? Or by the space available - calculated for each item as it arrives.

How did you want to specify the types to be stored? In advance or as they arrive? In both case they will store. example type1&type2 store in same slot
