PickupArtist

Picking things up and putting them down is now much more convenient!

• You can add to and remove from piles and crates without the relevant item being in your active hotbar slot
• You no longer need an empty hand to pick rocks and sticks up from the ground

 

I've also made tweaks to how items are transferred to and from your inventory. This is an attempt to reduce the amount of hotbar management you need to do.

Items you place into piles or crates will be drawn from your inventory in following order:

1. Active hotbar slot (if possible)
2. Smallest backpack stack
3. Smallest hotbar stack

 

Items you pick up will fill your inventory in the following order:

1. Smallest partial hotbar stack
2. Active hotbar slot (if possible)
3. Smallest partial backpack stack
4. Empty backpack slot
5. Empty hotbar slot

 

For reference, vanilla will fill your hotbar left-to-right first.

• Crash caused by NullReferenceException when adding one stone to a full stone pile
  • Does not happen when adding two or more stones to a full stone pile
  • Does not happen when adding one stick to a full stick pile
• Some piles should not be stackable across multiple vertical blocks (stick and stone piles)
• Some piles seem like they are not affected by the mod at all (coal piles)

 

• Carry On - Carrying a crate takes priority over placing items into it when both hands are empty

 

• Crateful - Pickup Artist should offer the similar capabilities

 

• Fix Crate - Both mods attempt to patch the same code
• Primitive Survival - Fishing line and other interactions seem to be broken
• Salty's Manual Scraping - Pickup conflicts with using a knife

 

Thank you to everyone who helps make this mod worth the time and effort!
