Hyper Inventory Crafting Hotbar Lootchest Vendor System V4

Build the item loop from the first pickup to a crafted tool or a traded weapon. Hyper Inventory, Crafting, Hotbar, Lootchest & Vendor System connects storage, crafting, trading and world loot through a shared container and item model.

Key Features

Inventory and item handling

• Nested storage: put containers inside containers, including backpacks with their own inventory.
• Item actions: split, transfer, transfer all, swap, combine, use or drop items.
• Custom amounts: choose how much of a stack to move.
• Capacity: configure weight limits, slot limits and dynamic slot creation.
• Starting items: give each inventory its own initial contents and capacity.
• World pickups: connect items in the level to the inventory.
• Over 250 predefined items: use the existing item definitions as starting content.
• DataTable authoring: edit item data centrally, including the spreadsheet import workflow.

Decay and storage conditions

• Per-item decay: choose which items degrade over time.
• Container modifiers: use different decay rates for storage such as a refrigerator or a hot environment.
• Decay outcomes: destroy an item, make it unusable, require repair or replace it with another item such as spoiled meat.

Crafting and hotbar

• Player crafting: make eligible recipes directly from the personal inventory.
• Workstations: restrict recipes to the relevant crafting location.
• Recipe knowledge: control which recipes the player knows.
• Queues: process recipe stacks in order and cancel individual stacks or the queue.
• Station activation: pause crafting when configured station conditions are no longer met.
• Fuel: configure accepted fuel and priority for stations that consume it.
• Output containers: send workstation output to the station and personal crafting output to the player.
• Hotbar: keep frequently used items accessible through the hotbar.

Vendors, loot and restocking

• Trading: configure vendor buy/sell multipliers and currency.
• Stock rules: define trade lists, rejected categories and available currency.
• Loot lists: configure chance-based rewards by item or category.
• Loot tiers: low-, medium- and high-quality chests have editable loot configurations.
• Restocking: set item chances, minimum/maximum quantities and stock caps.

Interface and inventory styles

The included interface connects item movement, tooltips, crafting, trading and hotbar actions. Inventory variants can be mixed per actor, for example a grid for loot and a list for a vendor. Jigsaw and List-Based Inventory are separate extensions linked below.

The rules behind every item

• Gameplay Tag filters: restrict a container to a category such as ammunition, consumables or equipment. Parent tags can accept their more specific child categories.
• Nested contents that stay together: backpacks can contain other containers. Moving or saving the hierarchy preserves the relationship between the bag and what is inside it.
• Pre-filled items: define starting contents in item data, such as supplies inside a backpack or ammunition inside a weapon.
• Context-sensitive actions: item data determines available actions and the default action. The interface presents the relevant choices for the item and container.
• A shared item model: definitions hold common item properties, while runtime item data carries quantities, durability, decay and nested-container references. Container events keep the interface updated.

Quick access without duplicate item storage

• Reference-based hotbar: drag an eligible item onto a hotbar slot while leaving the actual item in its inventory or equipment container. Quantity and durability come from that source.
• Links follow item changes: moving an item between allowed containers updates its reference. Consuming, dropping or moving it into restricted storage clears the link.
• Player-controlled layout: swap quick-access positions or remove a shortcut without rearranging the underlying inventory.
