Valheim 1.0 compatible · Works on dedicated servers
Client-side quality-of-life improvements for storage, crafting, production and repairs. No server installation required.
Storage
- Quick stack: send matching items to nearby chests with F10. Hotbar, equipped, quest and reserved items stay with you.
- Chest rules: remember item types even when a chest is empty, set stacking priority, and see how many types each chest remembers.
- Chest labels: add text directly to a container's front, back or sides. Choose white, red, orange, yellow, green, blue or purple.
- Inventory sorting: sort chests or your backpack with a button. Backpack sorting keeps protected items in place and leaves empty special slots alone.
- Reserved slots: protect empty or occupied inventory slots from quick stacking, including expanded inventory slots.
- Shared range: 75 m by default, adjustable up to 100 m. Private-chest and ward access are respected.
Crafting
- Craft and upgrade using ingredients from accessible nearby chests.
- See available/required ingredient counts, such as 24/10.
- Supply vanilla smelters, kilns, blast furnaces, windmills, spinning wheels, cooking stations, ovens, fermenters and fireplaces directly from nearby storage during manual interaction.
Production
- Connect multiple Input, Fuel and Output chests to vanilla production buildings.
- Automatically supply materials and fuel, then deposit finished products.
- View colored connections while hovering over a station, or toggle the visuals off.
- See linked chest counts in the station tooltip.
- Save production connections with your character.
Automation operates on nearby, loaded stations owned by your client. If an output cannot fit in storage, it remains a normal world drop.
Repairs
- Structure repair: press ; to repair accessible, loaded structures within 100 m, respecting wards. No hammer or crafting station is required.
- Equipment repair: click a crafting station's repair hammer once to repair every carried item that station can repair.
