DetectStorage

Detect Storage (Valheim Mod)

Detect Storage adds a clean sorting workflow with 2 build pieces in a new Hammer category called Detect:

• Detect Hub
• Detect Chest

The system is multiplayer-safe and server-authoritative:

• client sends requests only
• server validates object + distance
• server performs all item moves/filter writes

What it does

Detect Hub

• Recipe: 20 Wood + 20 Stone
• Container where you drop items to sort
• Default scan range: 20m (Hub.ScanRadiusMeters)
• Sort trigger: open the hub and press G
• Cooldown: Hub.SortButtonCooldownSeconds (default 0.5)

Sort behavior:

• Reads each stack in the hub
• Finds Detect Chests in range that match the item filter
• Moves to the first matching chest with enough space
• Leaves stack in hub if no matching/free chest is available

Detect Chest

• Recipe: 5 Wood
• Uses vanilla wood chest model
• Inventory size matches largest vanilla chest size
• Single-item filter mode (v0.1)

Filter usage:

• Open a Detect Chest
• Press F to enter filter mode
• Click an item to set filter
• Press F then click empty slot to clear filter

Persistence:

• ZDO key: detect_filter_item
• Value: item prefab name

If filter is not set, Detect Chest accepts nothing.

Build radius visuals

• The hub radius is shown only while you are in build placement for:
• Detect Hub
• Detect Chest
• Radius is hidden after placement.
