📋 About This Mod
L4khNFr_lBU
When the player acquires an item, all nearby items (excluding holotapes, books and notes) are automatically acquired. Quest items from accepted quests and items owned by others are automatically excluded from looting. The looting system reads information directly from installed plugin files (ESP, ESL, and ESM), ensuring consistent handling of both vanilla and mod-added items. The range of acquisition and the types of items that can be looted are fully customizable through the MCM.
For junk items, a powerful filter function allows you to determine whether to loot based on components. Health-restoring food items can also be acquired based on conditions such as healing amount, presence of radiation, and the ratio of radiation damage, giving you the ability to customize the types of consumables you wish to obtain.
Most of the process is handled by F4SE's VM scripts, ensuring fast, accurate, and safe looting.
Want to keep looting automatically as you move around? Simply enable the "Repeat Auto Loot by Time" option in the MCM.
Old‑Gen or Next‑Gen users, please use the Main version from the Files tab.
AE or lastest version users, please use the AE edition.
Detailed settings can be found in the 'Auto Loot Nearby Items' menu in MCM. Most of the options should be intuitive, based on the item names or the help messages under each item. I will only explain the parts that require clarification.
To view additional details about the MCM menu, click the spoiler below.
HotKey - Manually Trigger Auto Loot:
- This hotkey bypasses the 'Enable Looting' and 'Disable Auto Looting in Settlements' MCM settings, ensuring it always runs.
Repeat Auto Loot by Time:
When enabled, auto-looting does not occur only at the moment of picking up an item. Instead, it continuously triggers every 0. 5 seconds.
Auto Scrapping:
When this feature is enabled, any junk items you acquire will be sent to a designated location. Upon entering a settlement, these items will automatically be scrapped and placed into your inventory.
This feature might be considered overpowered by some, but it is enabled by default. Fallout 4 contains an overwhelming amount of junk items, and this mode allows for automatic collection, which can quickly fill up your inventory weight limit. If you feel this gives an unfair advantage, you can turn off this feature and control the junk collection more specifically through the junk item filter settings below.
Transfer Scraps to Workshop:
When enabled, materials from Auto Scrapping are transferred to
