⭐ Features:
- A panel lists the contents of the chest you are looking at: item icon, name, stack count and quality level.
- Shows how full the chest is (slots used / total slots) next to its name.
- Identical items are combined into a single row with a total count (can be turned off).
- Sort rows by value, weight or name, ascending or descending, and optionally limit how many rows are shown.
- The panel resizes to fit its contents, and large chests spill into up to 3 columns.
- Clean, semi-transparent black panel using Valheim's own font.
- Only works on chests you are allowed to open, so private chests stay private.
- Hidden while the inventory, menus, console, chat or other text windows are open.
- Only shows player-built chests; world/dungeon loot chests stay a surprise.
