Drop And Grab Overhaul

A Lethal Company mod that overhauls item dropping, grabbing, and selling: quickly drop or sell your whole inventory, and optionally remove the vanilla item-grab cooldown.

Status: Early development

Features

• Double-tap drop — tap the drop key (G) twice to drop all eligible items, skipping blacklisted items (including the currently held one)
• Force drop — hold the drop key to drop everything, ignoring the blacklist
• Drop blacklist — configurable list of items that are never dropped by double-tap/force-drop
• Auto-sell at the company desk — hold the drop key while looking at the counter to automatically place all sellable items on it, one at a time
• Sell blacklist — configurable list of items that auto-sell should skip, separate from the drop blacklist
• Grab cooldown removal (optional) — removes the delay between picking up items so you can grab in rapid succession

In all cases, the player's originally selected hotbar slot is restored afterward, even if it ends up empty.

Activation

Double-Tap Drop

Use Lethal Company's normal drop key twice within a configurable time window.

G       → Normal item drop
G + G   → Drop all eligible items (blacklist respected)

Force Drop

Hold the drop key for a configurable duration to drop everything, including blacklisted items.

Auto-Sell

While looking at the company desk's counter, hold the drop key to sell all eligible scrap items from your inventory onto the counter.

Configuration

Config is generated on first run under BepInEx's config/ folder. Sections and keys:

[Input]
DoubleTapWindow          Time window in seconds to detect a double-tap (default: 0.3)
ForceDropHoldDuration    Hold duration in seconds to force-drop everything (default: 0.5)

[Items]
BlacklistedItems         Comma-separated item names never dropped by double-tap/force-drop

[Grab]
RemoveGrabCooldown       Removes the delay between grabbing items (default: false)

[Sell]
AutoSellInventory        Enables holding the drop key at the counter to auto-sell (default: true)
SellBlacklistedItems     Comma-separated item names that auto-sell should skip

Compatibility

DropAndGrabOverhaul is being designed with compatibility in mind.

The inventory system will use an abstraction layer so that the core drop logic does not depend directly on a specific hotbar or inventory implementation.

Planned integrations include:

• HotbarPlus
• ReservedItemSlot
• Ship inventory chute mods

Optional integrations will not be required for the base mod to function.

Development

This project is built using:

• C#
• .NET
• BepInEx
• HarmonyX
• Unity
• Lethal Company
