My personal shelf automation mod has reached a reasonable point of completeness, worth a testing release I think. This will detail my current progress until I feel this is ready for full release. After some thought I've removed several features and streamlined others.

License: MIT
Release: Advanced Stocking@Github
Requirements: Harmony lib (included), SaveGamePatches for save game compatiblity

If you want to test this mod on an existing game, you will need to also install my SaveGamePatches to allow this mod to patch your game upon load. Load order for the SaveGamePatches mod does not matter.

Features

  • Ability to overstack items on shelves, dependent on the item weight and item types allowed in the Filter
  • Ability to overlay items on shelves and to interact to each item via right click menu
  • An additional Stock tab for configuration
  • Can set shelves to auto forbid items when placed, as well as to be stocked by forbidden items. Good for drugs or stockpiling caravan food


TODO

  • Work on stock pushing
  • Larger shelves

DESIGN GOALS

  • Centralize item storage, probably in the area of 10:1 to 12:1
  • Ability to place multiple items in the same space
  • Support a condensed storage system for equipment sorting
