Mod purpose:
At official Astroneer reddit u/NathaninThailand posted:
Can we get a keyboard shortcut to empty the main 8 slots for a backpack? Automation is great, but you still have to manually drag everything out of the backpack after I come back from mining. A shortcut to drop everything on the ground so you can let auto arms get it would be great.
