📋 About This Mod
Content
This mod adds a tab into the mod options menu that allows you to toggle automatic item pickup for each type of crafting station.
When you craft an item, you might just want to let it sit there for a moment so you can appreciate all its details. Or maybe you want the immersion of having to manually pick up the things you craft. If you really feel like it, you can even leave items on your Fabricator beds for the sake of decoration. Whatever reason it may be, this mod accomplishes that.
Installation
Default/stable version:
Install the BepInEx pack and Nautilus if needed, and then unzip the file and place the mod folder (named NoAutoPickup2) into the Subnautica/BepInEx/plugins folder.
Legacy version only:
Unzip the file and put the contents (the folder named NoAutoPickup) into your QMods folder.
Source Code
(GitHub)No Auto Pickup is a small quality-of-life mod that disables the automatic pickup of items immediately after crafting. It's for players who want to manually collect their crafted goods, offering a simple tweak with 47 endorsements and recent updates.
