About Bags of Holding

From Factorio Mod Portal

This mod adds storage containers that can be accessed from inside your inventory.

Bags of holding! This mod adds containers that you can access from your inventory. There are three tiers of bag, crafted with LDS and Efficiency modules.

For now I'm using the toolbelt icon for everything, but I may do some updating to make the icons unique.

FAQ

Q. How do you craft the bags? A. Each type of bag can be crafted as follows: Type I - 5 LDS, 1 Efficiency Module Type II - 5 LDS, 1 Efficiency Module 2, 1 Bag of Holding Type I Type III - 5 LDS, 1 Efficiency Module 3, 1 Bag of Holding Type II

Q. How do you unlock the bags? A. There is a technology for each type of bag, unlocked after you research the Efficiency Module tier needed to craft it.

Q. How much does each bag hold? A. The Type I has 8 inventory slots, the Type II has 16, and the Type III has 24.

Q. How do I open the bag? A. Right click on the bag in your inventory. From there, it should function like any other container.

Q. Is there some way to tell what's in the bag without opening it? A. Not directly, but you can give each bag a unique name to tell yourself what's inside.

Q. Can you place bags inside of bags? A. Should work.

Q. Why does my crafting menu think the stuff in my bags isn't in my inventory? A. Because it isn't, it's in a bag. If you want to craft or build with items, you need to bring them into your main inventory.

Q. Does this mod work with X mod? A. In most cases, yes. This mod relies on a prototype that I doubt any mods remove, but the way the technologies are set up might cause issues with mods that change the tech tree. Might. If you run into any issues, post a bug report and I'll look into it.
