Crateful is a Vintage Story mod by crittan. Crateful streamlines crate storage by inserting matching inventory stacks without moving them to your active hand, with an optional bulk-insert key.
Why this mod is worth installing
This mod is useful for players who regularly sort harvested materials, crafted goods, or other bulk items into crates and want to avoid constant hotbar rearrangement.
What Crateful adds
Crateful changes how crate insertion works: when you interact with a crate, the mod can find matching stacks throughout your inventory instead of checking only the item held in your active hotbar slot. The active slot is still used as the starting point, so the process follows a predictable order.
A bulk toggle, bound to B by default, lets one insertion send all suitable stacks into the crate in sequence. This is especially convenient after gathering or crafting, when several identical stacks are spread between the hotbar and inventory.
The mod also accounts for CarryOn users. Its repeated-insertion behavior can be interrupted by CarryOn's controls, so holding the interaction may not repeat as expected; changing the conflicting pickup key or temporarily disabling CarryOn interaction provides a practical workaround.
