Quartermaster
Owl-assisted Deposit Chests, learned storage, configurable stacks, crafting supply, extended building coverage, production automation and requested ship unloading.🦉 Quartermaster — Storage & Base Management
Twelve chests of “miscellaneous”? The owl would like a word.
📦 Storage & Inventory
- Deposit Chests: Drop off supplies and automatically sort them into matching storage.
- Remembered items: Chests remember assigned item types even when empty.
- Storage rules: Configure preferred destinations, overflow chests and separate base groups. Copy settings between chests.
- Supply permissions: Choose which chests provide crafting materials, production inputs, fuel or animal feed.
- Inventory tools: Deposit All, sort inventories and chests, and combine compatible stacks.
- Pickup controls: Choose which item types to collect automatically.
- Stack sizes: Configure maximum stack sizes without changing item weight.
Furniture artwork: Models and textures are works in progress, kept simple for testing. They do not represent the final artwork.
🔨 Crafting & Base Automation
- Craft from storage: Craft, build and upgrade using nearby stored materials.
- Building coverage: Extend station coverage through your Deposit Chest’s area.
- Production: Supply compatible processors, fermenters and cooking racks, then collect finished goods.
- Machine controls: Set production caps, pause automation and protect valuable wood.
- Refuelling & feeding: Supply fires and torches, feed animals and optionally feed creatures being tamed.
- Protection wards: Enabled wards turn hostile creatures away while retaining their normal access rules.
🦉 Your Base Assistant
- Owl companion: Oversees Deposit Chests, reacts to sorting and explains storage problems.
- Helmsman integration: Ask the gull captain to unload ship cargo into your base.
- Accessible menus: Searchable chest settings, range previews and controller navigation.
🚀 Quick Start
- Install BepInEx, Jötunn and Quartermaster. Disable overlapping storage and automation mods.
- Open a chest → Chest Config → Use as Deposit Chest.

- Put supplies in the Deposit Chest and close it.
- Choose each storage chest’s withdrawal permissions under Supply.
- Aim at a machine and press F9 to configure it.
Handy buttons: Deposit All · Sort Chest · Sort Inventory
Normal recipe and station requirements still apply. Automation works in loaded areas; it does not automatically restock your player inventory.
Testing: Functional in local play. Multiplayer remains untested. Use matching versions on server and clients.
