📋 About This Mod
This simple mod allows you to use any consumable item in the game without picking it up, just mouse over it and press R. The mod utilizes vanilla keywords, wich allows it to work with all DLCs and all other mods, if they are using correct keywords.
I have made this mod as a way to learn and test how entry points in perks work, but i do think it is a nice little quality of life improvement, so it's worth sharing.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust: 1,535 endorsements and a quarter-million downloads.
- Zero hassle compatibility—works with all DLCs and mods out of the box.
- Saves time and inventory clutter, especially for hoarders.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2021—might break with newer game patches.
- No detailed instructions or troubleshooting in the description.
- Only works with consumables—doesn't affect other item interactions.
For players who hate stopping to pick up every potion or food item—this streamlines looting. Also great for those who use many mods and want a utility that won't conflict. Skip if you prefer vanilla mechanics or want more complex inventory overhauls.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Just drop the file into your Data folder and enable it in the launcher.
- Test with a common consumable like a potion to get the hang of the R key prompt.
- If you're using a mod manager, install it like any other mod—no special load order needed.
