OpenKeep

Storage for Valheim, plus a few base tweaks.

Features

• Reach: craft, build and feed stations from nearby chests and the ship or cart you are using.
• Storing and sorting: quick stack, store all, sort and trash by button or hotkey (below).
• Crafting: salvage, batches, recipe search and a recipe tracker (below).
• Stacks and Capacity: stack sizes, weights, chest and station sizes, contents on hover.
• Build Camera: build from a free camera near a crafting station (B with the hammer).
• Homestead: beds, respawns, fires, honey, pets and repairs (below).
• Works with PackPanel (inventory) and Wayfare (portals, quick jumps); neither is required.

Storing and sorting

• Quick stack: every stack to the nearby chests that already hold it.
• Store all / Take all: everything into or out of the open chest.
• Top up: refills your partial stacks from nearby chests.
• Route and Store one: a stack, or one item, to the nearest chest holding it.
• Find: points to every nearby chest holding the hovered item.
• Sort: your inventory or a chest, by category, name, weight, value or amount.
• Trash can and junk: destroy a stack, or all your junk at once; favourites are safe.
• Chest cycling: open the next chest around you with the arrows or the wheel.

Crafting

• Station feeding: use a smelter, kiln, fire or oven empty-handed and it takes from chests.
• Salvage: a Salvage tab turns gear back into most of its materials.
• Batch crafting: make many at once with a - amount + stepper, at your chosen speed.
• Recipe search and favourites: by name or material, favourites first, as rows or icon tiles.
• Recipe tracker: right click a recipe to pin its materials on screen.

Homestead

• Bed choice: every bed you own counts; after a death, click one on the map.
• Quick respawn: the nearer you died to your bed, the sooner you wake.
• Campfires on wood: build them on wooden floors.
• Honey: set how much honey a hive makes per day.
• Self-feeding: fires, torches, smelters, kilns and windmills refill from nearby chests.
• Night-only torches: lit at nightfall, out at daybreak.
• Pets: hungry tame animals walk to a nearby chest and eat.
• Rested sooner: Rested after a few seconds of rest, not twenty.
• Repairs: the hammer also fixes touching pieces; opening a station repairs your gear.

Off by default

• Cart workbench: every cart carries a workbench to craft and build from.
• Contents signs: a sign above each chest names what it holds.
• Ground pickup: chests pick up drops lying around them.
• Shared chests: view or use a chest another player has open.
• Auto Tidy: stray items go to the chest they belong in.
• Blueprints: save buildings, place them as construction sites from the hammer.
• Mímir's Chest: a chest that never fills, with search, filters and sorting.

Install

Needed on the server and every client. Install with r2modman or the app, or put OpenKeep.dll in

BepInEx/plugins.

• Lowering a stack size loses items above the new limit.
• Before removing the mod: split oversized stacks, empty enlarged chests' extra rows, switch off Signs and

Torches Night Only, and visit your bases by day.

• Ashlands or the Fire world key: a campfire on wood sets the floor alight.

Configuration

BepInEx/config/milkyteam.openkeep.cfg and seven OpenKeep.*.yml files. Every setting is described in the file and

applies without a restart; the server's values bind every player. Console: openkeep help.
