🎮 Advanced Controls

Mouse operation

🔧 Compatibility

• ✅ Suitable for all box types
• ✅ Should be compatible with most other stock mods
• ✅ Supports controllers (it is recommended to disable the "Controller Style Menu" for a better experience)
• NOTE: Some shortcuts are not available on the controller
• ❌ **Not supported on mobile devices**

📱 Mobile Device Instructions

Due to differences in how input is handled, the patch does not work properly. The touch input style for mobile devices is already very similar to what this mod implements. When I have time I'll try to clean up the bugs and implement controller support on mobile devices.

**For players playing cross-platform multiplayer between mobile and PC: If PC players install this mod, it will prevent them from disrupting mobile players' carefully organized chests. **

🚀 Future improvements

I welcome suggestions for improving the user experience of this mod. Current ideas include:

• Set L+R buttons as Shift and Ctrl keys on controller
• There should be a way to transfer a whole bunch of items using just the mouse, like a long press?
