📋 About This Mod
Quick Equip
Description:
-
[]This mod makes it so that holding the left shift key while clicking on an item in your inventory will equip the item instead of picking it up.
[
]This only happens when just your inventory is open, not when accessing a container or barter window.[]Left shift still works to split stacks when a container or barter window is open. To split a stack while in your regular inventory, hold the right shift key instead.
[]Can be configured to use another key, such as Alt, in the MCM menu
