README

NearbyStore

Stack items into nearby matching chests with one click, and favorite stacks you want to keep.

Core features

  • One-click stacking: a magic-wand button beside your inventory stores items in nearby placed chests, nearest first. Default range: 10 metres.
  • Vanilla-style matching: fill compatible stacks, then use free slots only in chests already holding that item. Empty or unrelated chests receive nothing; unmatched items and overflow stay carried.
  • Stack favorites: press Left Alt + F over a player-inventory stack to toggle its gold F marker. Favorites, equipped, queued-for-equip and quest items stay carried. Unequipped hotbar items are eligible unless favorited.
  • Container rules respected: checks privacy, wards, busy state and ownership; excludes tombstones, dropped loot and non-Piece containers. Search includes chests through walls and between floors.

Screenshots

Before stacking After stacking
Before stacking: 12 wood, 6 stone and 6 favorited resin carried, with the wand beside inventory. After stacking: wood has left inventory; 6 stone and 6 favorited resin remain.
Wood is ready to store. The gold F marks resin as a favorite. Wood has left the inventory. Stone and favorited resin stay carried.

Use

Open your inventory and click the magic-wand icon to its right. Close any container, crafting station or blocking overlay first. The ordinary basic crafting list is allowed. Closing inventory or opening a blocking UI cancels remaining transfers without undoing completed transfers.

Favorites follow stacks when moved or split. Manual merging keeps the destination stack's marker, so merging a favorite into an unmarked stack can remove its protection. Re-favorite the merged stack if needed.

Configuration

First load creates BepInEx/config/jarki.nearbystore.cfg. Edit while the game is closed:

[Storage]
Radius = 10

[Controls]
FavoriteShortcut = F + LeftAlt

Radius is in metres, constrained to 1–50. The favorite shortcut remains configurable; no shortcut hint is displayed. Favorites can be toggled in the player inventory even while a chest is open; storing requires the chest to be closed.

Requirements and installation

Requires Valheim and denikson-BepInExPack_Valheim 5.4.2351. Client-side only: no server installation or Jotunn dependency.

  • Mod manager: install Jarki-NearbyStore and accept its BepInEx dependency.
  • Manual: with Valheim closed and a working OS-appropriate BepInEx loader, copy the archive's plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/. New packages use BepInEx/plugins/Jarki-NearbyStore/NearbyStore.dll; older archives use BepInEx/plugins/NearbyStore/NearbyStore.dll. Remove the previous DLL when upgrading; never keep both copies. Native Linux uses Linux Doorstop.

Uninstall

Close Valheim and remove NearbyStore.dll from its plugin folder; remove BepInEx/config/jarki.nearbystore.cfg separately if desired. No custom items or world objects are added. Favorite markers are inert without the plugin; already deposited items remain in their chests.

Compatibility and troubleshooting

  • OdinsFoodBarrels: container restrictions remain active. Empty barrels need an initial item, just like vanilla Stack items. Custom barrel settings and other versions may differ.
  • Missing UI or errors: report an issue with game/mod versions, reproduction steps and redacted BepInEx/LogOutput.log entries. Never post private saves, passwords or tokens.
