About this mod Author’s original text

🎒 QualityOfLife

Version 1.11.1 · all the mods · install it (r2modman, Mod Manager) or the in-game mod manager (F7)

Quick gear sets on Q, hammer on B, a Sort button that joins stacks, Stack to chests with undo, chest assignment on K (look at a chest to see what it receives), Sort chests to send everything in the chests around you to the chest assigned it, item locks on L, your ships on the map with their own icon, and tap P next to a boat to push it. It will not let you plant a seed, sapling or crop where it has no room to grow up.

Choosing what a chest receives (K)

Known clashes

  • ExtraSlots, Equipment and Quick Slots, AzuExtendedPlayerInventory, Extended Player Inventory, ComfyQuickSlots, BetterArchery (with

its quiver on): they keep slots in rows of your inventory below the ordinary ones, which Sort can't tell from your bag, so the Sort button

is off while one is installed. Stack to chests never moves what you wear or hold; anything else you keep in their slots, lock (L).

  • Removing this mod doesn't give the game back a key it freed (Q, auto-run, by default): bind it again in the game's Settings, Controls.

Changing the mod's key does give it back.

🔍 How it works

Small controls that make the game nicer to play, each with its own switch.

What is in it

  • Q: build a quick set from items you hover in your inventory; outside the inventory it swaps to the set and back.
  • B: jump into construction mode with your hammer, and back to what you had.
  • Sort: a button under your inventory joins split stacks and puts everything in order (hotbar and gear slots stay put).
  • Stack to chests: a button under your inventory moves matching items into nearby chests, with Undo and sounds.
  • K opens the chest assignment menu (choose what each chest receives); L locks items so they are never stacked.
  • Boat push: tap or hold P next to a boat to shove it where you look (gentle, with a speed cap).
  • Far zoom: scroll the camera out to 20 m on foot and 40 m on a boat (the game stops at 6); the steps grow as you zoom out.
  • Planting: you cannot plant a seed, sapling or crop where it has no room to grow up (the ghost turns red and says so), instead of finding out after it never grows.

Keys are configurable. Q and B work while you are running.

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin

  1. The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
  2. Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
  3. Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
  4. Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.

Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file. In multiplayer, the host and every client need the same mods installed.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
