VoidChest

Void Chest

A Valheim mod: a magic container that travels with your character.

Equip it and press the hotkey to open your personal container. Contents are bound to the character save — dropping it, trading it, dying, or upgrading it never moves or loses the contents. Comes with a four-tier upgrade chain, nearby quick storage, and a guard-stone remote deposit.

Localization: English / Simplified Chinese / Traditional Chinese

Features

• Four-tier chest chain: Black Metal → Eitr → Flametal → Crystal, capacities 2x6 / 3x6 / 3x8 / 4x8 (configurable).
• Character-level data: contents live in the character file (Player.m_customData) and follow you across worlds and servers; the chest item is just a "key".
• Equip to open: uses a Utility slot (compatible with ExtraSlots extra slots), default hotkey B (configurable).
• Weight limit: defaults 100 / 150 / 300 / 800 (0 = unlimited, configurable).
• Drag / Shift-move over the limit auto-splits (stores only what fits).
• When full, items bounce back (no silent loss).
• Container weight is shown as current/max.
• Nearby / remote storage is not limited by weight.
• Nearby storage: one click stores backpack items into all containers within 30 m (configurable).
• Automatically ignores: the first hotbar row, equipped items, ExtraSlots dedicated slots (quick/ammo/food/misc/extra equipment), and containers in use by other players.
• Guard-stone remote deposit: while away from home, deposit materials remotely into all containers inside the territory of a guard stone you have access to.
• Configurable: capacities, weights, ranges, filters, remote unlock, hotkey, timeouts, caching (ConfigurationManager supported).

Recipe

| Tier | Item | Capacity (default) | Materials | Station |

|---|---|---|---|---|

| 1 | Black Metal Void Chest | 2x6 | Dragon Tear x5 + Fine Wood x10 + Black Metal x20 | Forge |

Usage

• Equip the Void Chest (Utility slot).
• Press B to open the interface.
• Interface buttons (single button, toggles):
• Nearby Storage: store into surrounding containers;
• Remote Deposit: store into home containers inside a guard stone's territory (requires Eitr/L2 or higher chest; can be set to always available in config).
• Vanilla "Stack All / Take All" buttons still work.

Remote Deposit Notes

• You must be the guard stone's creator or be on its permitted list.
• Range is the guard stone's own territory radius (XZ circle).
• Works for multiplayer clients: both the server (dedicated or host) and the client must have this mod installed.
• The client sends a filtered backpack snapshot to the server; the server scans and stores, then returns the result;
• The client removes exactly the items the server reports — safe even if the inventory changed while waiting;
• If the server does not have the mod, a "no response" message appears after ~30 s;
• Server can disable it with RemoteStore.Enabled = false.
• Scan results are cached (default 300 s, per player); repeated deposits complete in seconds. Removed containers are skipped automatically.
