CheckMyStuff

CheckMyStuff

Current release: 1.0.2

Label your chests by item type, then let the CheckMyStuff Barrel put your bag items away into the matching chests nearby.

How it works

• Build a CheckMyStuff Barrel with the Hammer (Misc tab). Cost: 20 Silver, 20 Iron, 20 Black Metal, 60 Wood, 20 Deer Hide.
• Open a player-built chest within 50 metres of the barrel. A label panel appears next to the chest inventory: pick a category, optionally drill down to a more specific type, and switch Enabled on.
• Tap the barrel's Use key to open the sorter. Choose a category, or Store All (it asks "Are you sure you want to store N items?" first).
• Hold the Use key on the barrel to store everything straight away, without opening the sorter.
• Eligible items in your bag move into matching, enabled, labeled chests within 50 metres.

Labels

Seven categories: Consumables, Equipment, Garden, Ingredients, Materials, Misc, Trophies.

Every level has an All Types choice, so a chest can take a whole category, one branch of it, or one exact item type. Some groups are a single choice that covers every item in them, for example Equipment › Helm or Equipment › Arms › Shields. For example:

• Materials (everything in Materials)
• Materials › Crafting › Blacksmith › Ingots
• Materials › Crafting › Blacksmith › Scrap / Ore › Iron (Iron Ore and Scrap Iron)
• Equipment › Arms › Tools (hammer, hoe, pickaxes, torches and other tools)

Each choice has a small checkbox, so one chest can take several entries on the same level, for example Chest and Capes, or Iron Ingot and Silver Ingot. Clear All removes every tick and resets the chest to All Types.

Item tooltips show where the barrel will put the item, for example Materials -> Crafting -> Blacksmith -> Ingots.

Looking at a chest with an enabled label shows that label under the Open prompt, for example Iron or Prepared Food.

More specific chests are filled first, then broader ones; within the same level the nearest chest is used first. When a chest is full, the next matching chest is used. Anything that does not fit stays in your bag.

What is never moved

• Hotbar items
• Equipped items
• Quest items
• Items from other inventories (only your normal bag is sorted)

Chests that are in use by someone else, disabled, out of range, or protected by a ward you cannot access are skipped. Items are moved with Valheim's own inventory transfer, so stacks, quality, durability and crafter names are kept. Nothing is ever dropped on the ground.

Modded items

Items added by other mods are placed into the label tree using their in-game item type and recipe/station relationships.

About

I use AI to review code, assist with optimization and integrity; I manually test and review every mod, and all decisions and code remain my own.

Requirements

• BepInExPack Valheim
• Jotunn
• Multiplayer: every player and the server need CheckMyStuff (same version). Before storing into a chest that another player's game controls, the barrel asks that game first, so two players can never write the same chest at once.
