About NearbyCrafting
From ThunderstoreCraft, build, and mass quick-deposit using nearby player-built containers.
Nearby Crafting
Nearby Crafting 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.
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.
- Containers are processed nearest-first.
- Supports configurable container range and player-built/moving-container filters.
- Includes compatibility support for BalrondConstructions storage layouts.
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.
Default settings:
[Quick Deposit]
Enabled = true
Hotkey = F6Both settings can be changed through the BepInEx configuration file or a compatible mod-config interface.

Manual
Install BepInExPack for Valheim, then place NearbyCrafting.dll in:
BepInEx/plugins/NearbyCrafting/Notes
Nearby Crafting uses Valheim's recipe requirement logic so conditional recipe requirements introduced in Valheim 1.0 are handled correctly. Resource consumption can be split between the player's inventory and multiple eligible nearby containers.
For troubleshooting, enable debug logging in the mod configuration and check the BepInEx log.
