StoreAndCraft

Your base runs with you.
Loot finds its chest. One key clears your pockets. Craft, upgrade, and build straight from storage. Feed kilns and smelters with [E] — and tell each station which wood or ore it’s allowed to take. Storage Displays track your stock by type (pick several at once). Mark favorites with F, find a stack with Y, skip a chest with [I]. Carts and ships count too.

Required on the dedicated / hosted server and every PC client (same version). Valheim 1.0 · BepInExPack 5.4.2350+. Console players via crossplay cannot load the mod.

Features

Auto-store

• Ground items are pulled into nearby chests automatically.
• Default: a chest only accepts an item if that type is already inside (MustHaveExisting).
• Carts (Vagon) and ships count as containers too.
• Player-built chests only for dump / auto-store (crypts, house spawns, and other world chests are skipped).
• Ward / private area rules still apply.

Dump & quick store

• . — dump allowed inventory stacks into matching nearby player-built chests.
• Middle mouse (inventory open) — store only the hovered item.
• Hotbar can be skipped (IgnoreHotbar).
• Favorites are never dumped / hover-stored (see below).

Craft & build from chests

• Recipes and hammer pieces count nearby chest contents.
• When you craft / upgrade / build, missing mats are taken from chests directly (not dumped into your backpack first — that used to fill free slots and cancel the craft).
• Craft / upgrade button enables when mats are in inventory or chests.
• Yellow tint on requirement text when part of the count comes from a chest.
• LeaveOneItem (default on): one item stays in each chest so auto-store can keep refilling. That leftover item cannot be spent (craft, build, plant, or station [E]). Turn the setting off if you want to use the last item.

Station refill [E]

Works on smelters, charcoal kilns, cooking stations, fires / torches, fermenters, turrets, etc.:

• Pulls fuel / ore / food from nearby chests when you don’t have it.
• Inventory first: if you already hold a valid item (e.g. deer meat), that is used before chest contents (e.g. boar meat).

Kiln / smelter pull filter

• Look at a kiln or multi-input smelter → Alt+E.
• Skills-style list with [+] / [-] toggles.
• Choose which wood / ore types may be auto-pulled (e.g. turn Wood OFF, leave Core wood ON).
• Saved per station (ZDO). Manual use from inventory is not blocked for types you hold yourself; auto-select / chest pull respects the filter.

Storage Display (Hammer)

• Build Storage Display (wood-sign look).
• [E] → type menu ([+] / [-]), same style as the kiln filter.
• Select one or several types at once (e.g. Wood + Ore); board shows all matching items.
• Chests named with [I] are ignored.
• Place several displays with the same selection next to each other → shared pages (1/2), (2/2), …

Favorites

• Inventory open → hover item → F.
• Gold tint, ★ badge, tooltip line.
• Skipped by dump and hover-store.
• Local file: StoreAndCraft.favorites.txt (not server-synced).

Ignore chests

• Prefix the chest name with [I] → no auto-store, no craft pull, not counted on displays.
• Hover text turns red so ignored chests are easy to spot.
• Rename with Alt+E (or Shift+E alt-use).

Search

• Inventory open → hover an item → press Y.
• Nearest chest that holds it blinks 3 times and gets a map ping.

Multiplayer

• Install on server + all clients, same version.
• Server config sync (LockConfig default on).
• Safe chest transfers (no ownership steal while someone has a chest open).

Keys (defaults)

All hotkeys are configurable in the .cfg and stay local (not overwritten by server sync).

Chat / console commands

Works in chat (/…) and in the F5 console (with or without leading /).

Changing ranges: host / server admin only. Anyone can view status / help.
