📋 About This Mod
This mod works like the game's useful feature that pulls resource from an open container when crafting.
What it does is, instead of checking for an open container, it uses all existing containers on the raft.
It works for crafting, building, and refueling.
It also pulls bowls and glasses from storages when picking up cooked food.
I'm not sure how it works in multiplayer situations where another player has a storage open. It seems like it might still work.

For Valheim builders and crafters who hate stopping to grab materials from chests. If you're tired of inventory tetris during big projects, this is for you. Skip if you prefer vanilla gameplay or don't use containers much.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or Thunderstore, just drop the file in and enable it—no extra setup.
- Test it with a small build first to see how it pulls from containers—make sure it doesn't grab from unintended chests.
- Check for compatibility with other container-related mods you might have, like stack size or sorting mods.
