RestlessCore
Less friction. Clearer information. Still Valheim.
RestlessCore brings the HUD, inventory, crafting and everyday quality-of-life systems together. It is the foundation for the Restless collection and works on its own.

Spend less time moving materials
Craft and build using eligible nearby chests when your bag runs short. Quick Stack deposits into matching storage; Restock tops up what you already carry. Hungry tames can eat from nearby chests, and supported station interactions can find their inputs and fuel there.
Hotbar, equipment/quick slots and locked bag cells stay protected. Empty chests are ignored by Quick Stack and ground-item routing. Material pulls leave one item behind by default, keeping the chest stack available as a destination.
A clearer view of your character
Dedicated equipment slots and Z / X / C quick slots sit beside the bag. Item tooltips show quality and separate set bonuses from individual item stats. Loadout totals let you inspect values and their sources.
The HUD, minimap, inventory/crafting, build information, map and menus share a restrained torn-paper treatment. Notifications stack, and repeated messages consolidate.

Small jobs, fewer clicks
Repair an area, repair equipment at a valid station and seal wood against rain for resin. Keep a loaded crossbow loaded when swapping, keep tools equipped in water and clear death pins when recovery is complete.
Stacks default to 2×; single-item gear stays single. Persistent fires, terrain limits and other gameplay options are configurable. Tames do not hurt players or each other, and ballistae ignore them; players can still kill their own tames.
Start here
- Install Core and its dependencies with a mod manager.
- Launch modded and open F8, or Restless in the pause menu.
- Review gameplay settings with the host and choose your personal HUD preferences.
| Default control | Action |
|---|---|
| Backtick, left of 1 | Quick Stack |
| Shift + Backtick | Restock |
| Middle mouse on a bag cell | Lock/unlock; cream diamond indicator |
| Z / X / C | Quick slots |
| F8 | Restless settings |
Gameplay rules are host/server-controlled with locking enabled. Keybinds and visual preferences remain local. Core overlaps other storage-automation, equipment-slot and HUD mods; consult the guide before combining duplicate systems.

Cook, Plant, Piles, Drawers, Storage and Works are separate expansions that use this foundation. Core does not add a skill tree or rarity gameplay by itself.
Installation and help

Vanilla Core foundation
For Core + Drawers with vanilla HUD, inventory and gameplay, set [Core] OptionalFeatures = false in BepInEx/config/restless.core.cfg and restart. Keep Drawers installed; no other Core switches need changing. Apply this on each client and server. Core's shared addon services remain available; other installed addons keep their own features. Use Core optional features (restart required) in F8 or edit the config while the game is closed. This preserves your saved per-feature preferences. Existing extra-slot items migrate to the ordinary bag, dropping overflow if full; empty extra slots before switching when possible. Past world changes and existing enlarged stacks are not undone. In-game migration and visual parity remain unverified.
