Cycle Chests

Quickly find items in nearby chests. Cycle through containers using arrow keys and mouse wheel.

Now with Chest Sorting based on chest distance from players! See your closest chests first.

Open a chest, then use your arrow keys or mouse wheel to switch to other nearby chests. Makes finding items easy without moving to or clicking on multiple chests.

NOTE: To use Cycle Chests seamlessly in a multi-player environment, install MultiUserChest from MSchmoecker, and cycle away!

New

• Added distance based Chest Sorting

Configuration

General

DistanceToIncludeChests: Distance from current location to look for chests to cycle through @. Chest Sorting: The way in which chests are organized. Setting to 'Distance' sorts chests by distance from the player, with cycling starting with the closest chests (within the search radius).

Sound

ChestOpenCloseVolume: Volume of Chest open and close sounds, as a percentage of maximum volume.

Controls

CycleNext: Press this key while a chest is open to open the next container. Default is right arrow. CyclePrevious: Press this key while a chest is open to open the previous container. Default is left arrow. UseMouseWheel: Cycle through containers using the mouse wheel.

Utility

LogLevel: Controls the level of information contained in the log MouseWheelLatency: Controls how sensitive the mouse wheel is when switching chests. Increase if too sensitive, decrease if too sluggish.

Settings with descriptions ending in "@" can be controlled by the server if installed there.

Utility

• LogLevel: Controls the level of information in the log.

In-game reconfiguration

You can use Configuration Manager (or similar) mod to change the configuration without exiting the game or force an update by changing the config file.

Notes

If Chest Sorting is set to Distance containers are sorted based on distance from the player. Cycling 'forward' opens the next chest farther away than the current open chest. Cycling 'backward', opens the next chest nearer than the open chest. If the farthest or nearest chest is reached, the next open chest will 'loop around', the same as with unsorted chests.

MultiUserChest is required for Cycle Chests to work correctly in a multi-user environment. This terrific mod is available here: https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/MSchmoecker/MultiUserChest/
