About this project

What does AnotherInventoryManager add?

 Inventory Manager for Vintage Story

A quality-of-life mod for managing your inventory efficiently. Sort items, push/pull to nearby containers, filter loot, and safely delete items — all with hotkeys and GUI buttons for casuals like me 

How to Use

 

GUI Toolbar
Open your inventory (default: **E**). An **Inventory Tools** toolbar appears below it with buttons for all features. The toolbar also shows a **Trashcan** slot displaying the last deleted item — click **Restore Item** to get it back.

 Hotkeys
All hotkeys are remappable in **Settings → Controls** (search for "IM:").

 

| Default | Action |
|---------|--------|
| **Alt+S** | Sort your inventory A-Z |
| **Alt+D** | Sort the currently open container A-Z |
| **Alt+P** | Push items to nearby containers |
| **Alt+R** | Restock partial stacks from nearby containers |
| **Alt+Q** | Delete the item under your cursor (goes to trashcan first) |
| **Alt+B** | Open/close the Loot Filter blacklist GUI |

| **Alt+F** | Open/close Favorites |

Sorting (A-Z)
Sorts items alphabetically, merging partial stacks first. Works on your backpack.

Sorting Containers (A-Z)
This is also a button among others in the GUI, works on the first opened container. If you ask me why it is there and not right under the container which it is tied to... I just couldn't figure it out. 

 

Push to Containers
Moves items from your inventory into nearby containers (20-block radius, configurable). Only pushes items that already exist in the target container — it won't dump random items into empty chests. Includes Crates (configurage).

 

Restock from Containers
Tops up partial stacks in your inventory from nearby containers. If you have 12 sticks, it finds sticks in nearby chests and fills your stack. Only affects items already in your inventory.

 

Safe Item Deletion (Trashcan)
Hover over an item and press **Alt+Q** to delete it. The item goes to a **trashcan** first — visible in the toolbar. Deleting another item permanently removes the previous one. Click **Restore Item** to get the item back.

 

Filters (Blacklist)
Press **Alt+B** to open the blacklist GUI. Hold an item and click **Add Held Item** to prevent it from being auto-collected, stocked or restocked. Click any item in the blacklist grid to remove it. Supports keyword-based filtering. Blacklist is saved to config and persists across sessions. Filters are dynamic, not just 1 line. 

Favorites window
Successor to filters of restock and stock. You can specify your favorite item to be stocked at all times (using stock button or keybinds) or store excess into containers with that item present. You can input desired amount of that item which must be in your inventory at all times. 
If that item does not exist in your inventory , it will be restocked from closest chest/container to the desired amount 

For multiplayer please note: I didn't not account for multiplayer balancing. Restock/Stock will very likely be able to fetch Other player's inventories and containers/chests and be able to take items from other people's inventories.  This balancing might be in future updates.

Inspirational Credits for Fabulous mods! 

 

Sonito's Trash it - I missed that feature from playing modded minecraft so here it is. Thank you for reminding me <3 
Xandus Inventory Tweaks  - very well put together tweaks for inventory management which i took for the baseline.  Keep in mind that Xandus mod is much more tweakable than this one. 
Sortable Storage - for giving the idea of soring external containers which for some reason i couldn't find any other mods that do this. 



AS ALWAYS
Make sure you make a world backup before using new mods. 



Open source 
Feel free to use this to anyway you like. It seems that I am no longer keep updating this mod, so if anyone would like to takeover or fork it and keep updated, be my guest!
