Quartermaster

🦉 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.

🦉 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 example items in receiving chests, or manage assignments through Chest Config.
• 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.
