LocalCraftFromStoragePrime

I vibe-coded this BepInEx plugin to let you 1) table-craft from nearby storage chests, 2) hammer-build from nearby storage chests, 3) send inventory materials to nearby storage chests, and 4) refuel fires and factory buildings from nearby storage chests. It works in singleplayer AND multiplayer. NOTHING is installed on the server. It should act like the vanilla game, except you are reaching out with very long arms; you'll even hear storage chests open/close in the distance lol.

You can tweak storage use in the config file:

• Reduce storage access range (by default it's maxed at 64m, 3x more than crafting table range)
• Change which storage containers are used (by default only regular chests, so items are protected in barrels, carts, ships, personal chests, etc)
• Set a minimum protected quantity of each item in all containers (like wood:69 so you can always get some).

There are also a couple in-game storage reservation features: 1) put between 2-100 plain wood arrows in the top-right slot of a container to reserve that many of everything in the container, and 2) place just 1 wood arrow in the top-right to exclude the entire container from mod access.

Bonus feature: you can see how much of a crafting material is accessible in all nearby storage by mousing over the material icon in the crafting screen!

The "Store Nearby" button sends crafting materials from your inventory to the nearest chest with that material in it. Reserved things in your inventory include your gear, ammo, crafted food, potions, keys, and everything in your top hotbar. You can tweak the exact behavior in the config:

• Rename the "Store Nearby" button. Non-English people can localize it, or you can completely delete the name to make it a cute square.
• AlwaysKeep and AlwaysSend variables. For example, if you eat honey and blueberries and don't want them being sent away, add "honey,blueberries" to the AlwaysKeep variable.
• KeepInventoryRows variable. Reserve more rows of your inventory starting from the top. Good if you are doing construction work and want to keep useful building materials on you.
• KeepPortalMaterials and KeepStonePortalMaterials variables. These will keep enough materials to build a table and a portal, regardless of where the materials are in your inventory. No more getting stranded in the wild!

GL HF!
