This mod requires the following mods to function
denikson-BepInExPack_Valheim
BepInEx pack for Valheim. Preconfigured with the correct entry point for mods and preferred defaults for the community.

Sort Containers
A small client-side Valheim mod that adds a sort button to chests and every other container window.
Click it and the container's contents are laid out alphabetically, row by row. Partial stacks of the same item are combined on the way (optional).
- The button sits just right of the vanilla Place stacks button and matches its styling.
- Sorting is by item name, then quality (highest first), then stack size.
- Works on any container: chests, carts, ships, reinforced chests, modded containers that use the vanilla window.
- Nothing is dropped, lost or moved between inventories. It only rearranges what is already in the container.
Installation
Install with r2modman / Thunderstore Mod Manager, or drop SortContainers.dll into BepInEx/plugins.
Requires BepInExPack Valheim and Jötunn. Client-side only: the server does not need it. The client that has a container open already owns its data, so the sorted layout is saved and synced exactly like the vanilla "Place stacks" button.
Configuration
BepInEx/config/dsoltyka.SortContainers.cfg is created on first launch.
| Section | Setting | Default | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
| General | MergeStacks |
true | Combine partial stacks of the same item while sorting |
| Layout | ButtonGap |
4 | Gap between "Place stacks" and the sort button, in pixels |
| Layout | ButtonSize |
0 | Button size in pixels; 0 matches the "Place stacks" height |
| Layout | IconPadding |
6 | Inset of the icon inside the button |
Layout settings take effect the next time the container window is created (relog or restart).
