Temp Pickup Balance

Automatically collect temporary item drops just by walking near them and choose where their temporary stacks go. Configure the behavior in Settings → Mod Options → Temp Pickup Balance.

Features

• Automatic temporary pickups: walk near a supported temporary pickup to collect it without opening the selection menu.
• Balanced: prioritizes your owned item with the fewest effective stacks of the same rarity.
• Highest stack: prioritizes your owned item with the most effective stacks of the same rarity.
• Ties: prefers items tagged Damage by the game, then uses a deterministic internal order.
• Normal pickups stay manual. Temporary items still expire according to the game's rules.
• Configurable: enable/disable, collection radius, scan interval, and inclusion of temporary-only inventory candidates.

Example

With 5 Armor-Piercing Rounds, 2 Mocha, and 1 Energy Drink, a temporary common-item drop is routed to Energy Drink in Balanced mode, or Armor-Piercing Rounds in Highest Stack mode (provided the drop and candidate items are compatible).

Installation

Install with r2modman or Thunderstore Mod Manager; dependencies install automatically. Start the game modded, open Settings → Mod Options, and select the desired mode.

Compatibility and notes

• Built and tested by the creator with Risk of Rain 2 and Alloyed Collective temporary item selectors. Compatibility with all other mods, DLC combinations, and multiplayer configurations is not guaranteed.
• This mod changes the recipient of temporary item grants and uses server-side game mechanisms; multiplayer clients may need matching versions. Testing with a single player or host is recommended first.
• If a drop remains on the ground, please report the exact item source and mod list.
• Significant portions of this mod were developed with AI assistance.
