Nearby Crafting Forked

Nearby Crafting Forked lets you craft and build using materials stored in nearby player-built containers, so you do not need to move resources into your inventory first.

This is a source fork of Nearby Crafting 1.2.1 (original by IPA38 / mikeg) with Quick Deposit exclusions and fuel/ore assist from nearby chests for smelters, kilns, fires and lights.

Do not run this fork at the same time as the original Nearby Crafting plugin. Both patch the same Valheim methods; use one or the other.

This may break other CraftFromChests-style plugins that also patch crafting, building, or station fueling.

Features

• Craft using materials from nearby eligible containers.
• Build using materials from nearby eligible containers.
• Mass Quick Deposit sends matching inventory items to nearby chests with one configurable hotkey.
• Quick Deposit can be enabled or disabled independently from Nearby Crafting.
• Optional glow on chests and parked carts that received a Quick Deposit (off by default; color and duration are independent of item locate).
• Quick Deposit exclusions keep consumables, ammo, equipment and utility items in your inventory by default.
• Per-item exclude / allow lists with * wildcards (for example deposit mushrooms while keeping other food).
• Fuel smelters, charcoal kilns, blast furnaces, campfires, torches, braziers and similar stations from nearby chests on interact (uses each prefab’s own fuel item: Wood, Resin, Coal, Greydwarf eye, etc.).
• Optionally pull smelter/kiln ore and other cookable inputs from nearby chests.
• Locate items in nearby chests and parked carts with the nearby console/chat command (glows nearest matches).
• Containers are processed nearest-first.
• Configurable container range and player-built / moving-container filters.
• Compatibility support for BalrondConstructions storage layouts.
• Optional auto-reload when the.cfg file changes on disk (edit, save, apply in-game).

Mass Quick Deposit

Press the configured hotkey to deposit matching items into eligible nearby chests.

• An item is only deposited into a chest that already contains that item type.
• If one matching chest cannot accept the full amount, the remaining items can continue to another matching chest.
• A HUD message reports how many items were deposited and how many chests received items.
• Optional chest/cart glow (HighlightChests, off by default) shows which containers received items. HighlightColor accepts hex (#248038) or RGB (36,128,56 / 0.14,0.50,0.22). Opacity is HighlightAlpha (slider, default 1). Duration is HighlightDurationSeconds (default 15). Separate from Item Locate. Clear with nearby clear.
• Only stackable items are deposited (max stack size greater than 1).
• Exclusion rules apply only to Quick Deposit. Nearby crafting and building can still pull materials from chests.

Enabled = true
