Hate organizing? Want an automation solution? This mod is for you!

Automatically classify buildings

Tired of the tedious process of organizing your items manually? Especially when you install a lot of mods that add new items, organizing becomes even more time-consuming! ✨

🏗️ Building functions

This mod adds a special building that can be built by Robin that automatically sorts your items by category into chests placed inside!

📝 How to use

Enjoy the convenience of automated organization in just a few simple steps:

• **Build Building**: Purchase a building from Robin and wait for construction to complete
• **Set up signboards**: Place signboards that can display items anywhere in the building
• **Place Box**: Place any type of box directly below the sign
• **Set Category**: Place items representing the storage category of the box on the sign
• **Insert items**: Put the items that need to be sorted into the box on the right side of the building door
• **Automatic classification**: After closing the box, items will be automatically classified into the corresponding boxes!

💡 **Tip**: The building can support any number of box combinations with signage!

🔄 Backup protection mechanism

To ensure the safety of items, the module is also equipped with smart backup functions:

• **Space Optimization**: If two boxes of matching categories are found but one has insufficient space, the remaining items will automatically be placed in the other box
• **Empty Tag Backup**: If there is no box matching the category or there is insufficient space, the item will be placed in the box under the empty tag
• **Safe Return**: If none of the above methods can handle it, the item will be returned to the original drop box

🎨 Customization support

The mod is planned to support recoloring and building replacement functionality, although this will take some time (the author does not consider himself a professional artist). If you want to use Content Patcher to texture your buildings, feel free to create! If you would like to integrate customized content into the module, please leave a message to discuss!
