Workshop Worker

Valheim 1.0 compatible · Works on dedicated servers

Client-side quality-of-life improvements for storage, crafting, production and repairs. No server installation required.

Storage

• Find in Storage: type an item name or part of one beneath your inventory to highlight matching accessible chests in blue. Uses the shared search range. Highlights remain when you close the inventory; select Clear to remove them.
• Withdraw from storage: see nearby matching item totals, select an item type with the button below the search field, then use +1, +5 or +Stack. +Stack requests one full stack; withdrawals take only what is available and fits in unreserved backpack slots. Click the selected item to cycle through matches.
• Search brightness: adjust HighlightIntensity under [Find in Storage] in the config. Defaults to 0.85; increase for a stronger glow or decrease for a subtler highlight.
• Search results in chests: when an open chest contains a match, nonmatching items are dimmed until you clear or change the search. Items remain usable.
• Trash Slot: drag an item or stack into the slot below the bottom-right inventory slot. It stays there until retrieved or replaced; adding another item permanently deletes the previous contents. Drag the held item back out to recover it; Shift-drag opens the stack splitter. Contents save with your character and are excluded from quick stack, sorting, crafting and production. Equipped and quest items are excluded.
• Quick stack: send matching items to nearby chests with F10. Hotbar, equipped, quest and reserved items stay with you.
• Chest rules: remember item types even when a chest is empty, set stacking priority, and see how many types each chest remembers.
• Chest labels: add text directly to a container's front, back or sides. Choose white, red, orange, yellow, green, blue or purple.
• Consistent label size: UseUniformTextSize under [Chest Labels] matches all loaded labels to the smallest fitted text size. On by default; disable it for individually sized labels.
• Inventory sorting: consolidate compatible partial stacks and sort chests or your backpack with a button. Backpack sorting keeps protected items in place and leaves empty special slots alone.
• Weight-aware sorting: enable SortHeaviestStacksToWeightReducedRows under [Inventory] to place the heaviest eligible stacks in ExtraSlots' active weight-reduced rows. Off by default; uses normal sorting when those rows are unavailable.
• Reserved slots: protect empty or occupied inventory slots from quick stacking, including expanded inventory slots.
• Shared range: 75 m by default, adjustable up to 100 m. Private-chest and ward access are respected.

Crafting

• Craft and upgrade using ingredients from accessible nearby chests.
• See available/required ingredient counts, such as 24/10, when crafting or building.
• Supply vanilla smelters, kilns, blast furnaces, windmills, spinning wheels, cooking stations, ovens, fermenters and fireplaces directly from nearby storage during manual interaction.

Production

• Connect multiple Input, Fuel and Output chests to vanilla production buildings.
• Automatically supply materials and fuel, then deposit finished products.
• View colored connections while hovering over a station, or toggle the visuals off.
• See linked chest counts in the station tooltip.
• Save production connections with your character.

Automation operates on nearby, loaded stations owned by your client. Linked ovens hold finished food without burning; linked furnaces pause for unavailable output storage and retain pending products. These guards apply while your client controls the station, including catch-up after returning. They cannot prevent burning or dropped output produced while another client controls it, or recover items already burnt.

Repairs

• Structure repair: press; to repair accessible, loaded structures within 100 m, respecting wards. No hammer or crafting station is required.
• Equipment repa
