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] — or toggle auto-fill with B while looking at a kiln / smelter / torch. 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, sort with R, 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 if any one player is in StoreRange of the pile. You can walk off; a buddy standing there is enough.
• 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. If the chest cannot take the whole stack, it fills what fits and leaves the rest.
• 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 / torch auto-fill

• Look at a kiln, smelter, blast furnace, cooking / stone oven, fermenter, or torch / fire with the inventory closed → B toggles auto-fill for that station (saved on the station).
• When fuel or ore hits 0, it sends a full load (smelter max, e.g. 10) from inventory first, then chests within AutoFillRange. Then it waits until that slot is empty again. If chests are empty too, the next chest check is after 20 seconds.
• No chest scans and no “it’s full” spam while the station is still running. Filter still applies (Wood OFF stays OFF).
• F with inventory open is still favorites. Manual [E] refill is unchanged.

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.

Sort

• Inventory open → R.
• Bag only: sorts your inventory. Open chest: sorts that chest only (not both).
• Favorites stay put (equipped + hotbar too when IgnoreHotbar is on).

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).
